Description:

The law has a huge impact on archivists, their institutions, and their

records. There are legal aspects to almost every function an archivist

performs. The workshop will very broadly cover laws that archivists

encounter in acquiring, preserving, and making available archival

documents. Topics will include:

 

* Legal issues in acquisition and ownership

* Cultural property and tax laws

* Freedom of information and protection of privacy laws

* Copyright law

* Evidence law

 

The goal of the workshop is to introduce participants to the general

legal framework that applies archives.

 

Workshop Instructor:

Loryl MacDonald has been the Records Archivist at the University of

Toronto Archives since 2000. She is currently the President of the

Association of Canadian Archivists and has served as president of the

Archives Association of Ontario and of the Toronto Area Archivists'

Group. Loryl has also taught the courses, Managing Organizational

Records as well as Legal Issues in Archives, at the U. of T. Faculty

of Information. She most recently guest co-edited the law and archives

special issue of Archivaria. Loryl holds a Bachelor of Laws and a

Master of Archival Studies from the University of British Columbia.
