Hello AAO,

The Winter 2025 issue of Off the Record is now available. It's a perfect way to ignore those piles of snow in the driveway and can be accessed by members here!

This issue features an update from president Shelley Respondek, an Archeion update from coordinator Kelli Babcock, and an announcement for the AAO 2025 Virtual Conference. Following, we have a wonderful new Memory Workers at Work interview with Vasuki Shanmuganathan of the Tamil Archive Project.

Our student spotlight is with Valencia Sipes, a former horologist and current student in the Film and Photography Preservation and Collections Management program at Toronto Metropolitan University. The issue also includes an article outlining Oxford County Archives' efforts to celebrate a number of overlapping local anniversaries. Finally, Olivia White from the Simcoe County Archives describes a collaborative video project with Rogers TV highlighting her institutions rich collections.

Happy reading!

Isobel and Simon
