Online via Zoom and in the library on Unley Road.

This month for Wednesdays @ 1, we're joined by Erin Reardon, Museum and Archives Coordinator at the Adelaide Showground. 

The collection of the Royal Agricultural and Horticultural Society Archives contains competition entries and catalogues, maps, programs, photographs and much more, providing a fascinating insight into the era of their creation. When Erin Reardon began at the RA&HS Archives, he quickly discovered he had the autonomy and expectation to decide the direction of the archives, a simultaneously exciting and daunting prospect. This talk will discuss the collection, the history it represents, and finding the right help to future-proof it and make it accessible.

Please note, this session will be recorded, and all registrants will recieve a link to the recording after the event.

Registrations close Wednesday 5 February, 9:00 am
