It's International Archives Day 2010. Again we in the profession have an opportunity to promote the use and appreciation of archives within our own countries. The ICA hopes that local celebrations will foster international solidarity among those responsible for the care of archives and their users. I also hope this happens. Archives are one area where the similarities between people of all nations anywhere, and anytime, can be highlighted. At a time when economic troubles are causing us to look internally it's important to remember the wider world stage upon which we live and work and to which our profession contributes.
If the Archives and Records Association (UK and Ireland) is planning anything I've missed it.
