Do you want to get involved with the Archives Association of Ontario (AAO)? Are you a new professional looking to meet fellow archivists and contribute to the field? If so, you’re in luck! The AAO is looking for individuals to help support our mandate of furthering the education of Ontario’s records and information professionals and advocating for the interests of the province’s community of archives, heritage organizations, and records institutions.

The AAO is currently looking for volunteers for the following committees:

• Professional Development Committee (PDC)
• Advancement Committee
• Communications and Advocacy Committee (CAC)
• Student and New Professionals Outreach Committee 

The Communications and Advocacy Committee and Digital Access and Preservation Committee also have vacancies for the position of chair. 

Detailed committee descriptions and a listing of current membership can be found on the AAO website. 

If you are interested in volunteering or wish to learn more about these opportunities, please reach out to Director Without Portfolio Samantha Shields at director1@aao-archivists.ca.
