Canadian Folklore Archives Rough Rocks in a Treasure Box: Canadian Folklore Archives as a Special Type of Heritage Institutions
-
- Author(s) / Creator(s)
-
This poster is part of a larger research on Canadian folklore archives. It aims to critically examine folklore archives in Canada as a special type of cultural heritage institutions. I examine their history, function and organization of information and how they differ from those of more “traditional” archival institutions, such as government, university or business archives. Exploring these issues is necessary in order to better understand how folklore archives are managed today, and how sustainable these repositories are to survive and thrive in the future.
