To the AAO membership,

The Archives Association of Ontario extends a warm congratulations to former Chief Librarian and Archivist Ian E. Wilson on his promotion to Officer of the Order of Canada. 

Mr. Wilson is honoured for his “sustained leadership in the development and accessibility of public archives, and for his published works on history, heritage and information management,” as explained on the Governor General’s website. We are proud to have an archivist receive such a distinguished award, an achievement which highlights the value that archives bring to Canadian society.

Bravo!
