International Archives Day (9 June)

"The International Council on Archives (ICA) was founded at a meeting in Paris in 1948, and established this day in 2007."
I was going to comment that while I like the idea of archives, my only direct experience was an afternoon in the National Archives of Scotland (in Edinburgh), looking up stuff on an eccentric linguist who had once lived there and got into a spot of trouble with the law.

(Hm, have they since changed their name to "National Records..."?)
But then I thought...I actually had considerable personal connections with the Archive of Maori and Pacific Music at the University of Auckland, which was part of the department I used to teach in.

(Hey! They've changed their name, too!)
They've always included some language with their music, and I guess the change reflects that. They took a lot of tapes from my early fieldwork (1970s) off my hands and gave me digital copies. Sweet!
This reminds me that our National Archive has also changed names. It's now Te Rua Mahara o te Kāwanatanga Archives New Zealand. Like most government bodies, it has added a Maori name to itself (which looks as if it means "storage pit of memories of the government").

A few of my things are also in PARADISEC, a fairly new Australian-based archive that deals mainly with Pacific languages and cultures:

Then there's the Internet Archive. A couple of years ago I came across something very useful -- I think an old book that they had made very accessible online -- and decided to send them some money. Now I hear from them regularly (but not annoyingly); maybe I'll send them some more.
