Archives Month is an annual, month-long observance of the agencies and people responsible for maintaining and making available the archival and historical records of our nation, state, communities, and people. Archives serve as the memory of our nation, and by celebrating, we recognize and give legitimacy to the enduring value of American records and America’s archives.
We encourage you to check out our Instagram account where we'll be highlighting treasures from the Medical Center Archives collection all month long.
This year the Society of North Carolina Archivists' theme for Archives Month is “North Carolina's 250th”. As the nation approaches its 250th birthday, North Carolina archivists are celebrating the different peoples of North Carolina and the part they play in the history of our country.
Join us on October 31st from 11-2 for our annual lunchtime break “It Came From the Archives” to view some archival materials and enjoy free candy!
