The Independent Archivists Section seek to facilitate and foster the sharing of ideas, information, and support amongst archivists outside the traditional archival repository. This includes, but is not limited to, independent contractors, private archivists, digital archivists, freelance and consulting archivists.





The Independent Archivists Section seeks to offer members advice and support on topics ranging from the nuances of business as an independent contractor to curation and access in a non-traditional repository. Unique facets of ethical and preservation activities with a thorough lack of institutional support will also be examined both by and for those working in non-traditional archives.
