This course is intended to serve as a bridge between archivists, curators, researchers, legal experts and policymakers whose work deals with digital records, cultural heritage collections and/or open data.

ARAB, Stockholm: Changes while we are preparing our move

Arbetarrörelsens arkiv och bibliotek / Labour Movement Archives and Library
Stockholm, Sweden

From the turn of the year (2011/2012) we are busy preparing our move. Our library department will be closed after February 3, while the archival department still is open, however by appointment only. Our door will be locked and no spontaneous visits are possible.

To enable us to work with our library collections we need to stop all check outs and to recall all materials in circulation. This includes interlibrary loans.
