For #ArchiveMyths of #Archive30 we have the myth that Archivists love white gloves. While gloves are recommended to handle photographs, dry, clean hands are much better for handling rare books and documents. In fact wearing gloves can do more harm than good!
We do wish folks would stop referring to "d*sty" archives - as the friend of pests which want to eat our archive, d*st is our mortal foe! #ArchiveMyths #Archive30 #1921Census #walworth
The Manticora, the Siren and the Harpy in "Curious Creatures in Zoology", by John Ashton (1900). #ArchiveMyths #Archive30
One of the #ArchiveMyths we want to debunk is that archivists like to keep documents hidden away and secret... The opposite is true! We're a research facility, and aim to make as many archives as possible open to study (even if they once were "top secret"!) #Archive30 @ARAScot
#ArchiveMyths: "Archives are boring." Archives are where you solve mysteries and uncover things that people forgot about long ago.🔎 My favorite was finding artist Richard Beyer's abandoned installations at the zoo: kikiatlarge.wordpress.com/2020/06/17/bey… #Archive30
Rounding off #WomensHistoryMonth with @archives4london talk by Anne Locker @IETLibArch on Electrical Association for Women - consumer org founded in 1924 and with supporters inc Nancy Astor, Ellen Wilkinson, Lady Rhondda. Fab stuff!

How to inadvertently trigger me. Vendor: software preserves records. No, it really doesn’t (well, not on its own). Software can used by archivists/librarians et al to preserve records. There’s little I’m more certain of than this: digital preservation is not a piece of software.
Just been to the excellent @UkNatArchives #GreatEscapes exhibition. I wasted many hours in my youth playing Escape From Colditz without really realising what it all meant. The exhibition brings some of the personal stories alive. And, of course, most people didn’t escape.
