2021 Archives Amplified Conference will go ahead 14-17 September

The #ArchivesAmplified Conference conference will go ahead between 14-17 September, either in its planned hybrid format or as a virtual conference. Council and the Conference Committee are closely monitoring the COVID situation across Australia and will be making a decision on whether the conference will move to a fully virtual format within the next week. 

You can transfer your registration from in-person to virtual or vice-versa up until 7 September (no additional fees). Should the conference move to fully virtual, registrations will be automatically transferred.

Virtual delegates can still enjoy a fantastic conference experience via the Delegate Connect conference platform. One of the reasons Delegate Connect was chosen is that it provides a far richer virtual conference experience than death-by-Zoom.

  • Connect with individual attendees and speakers
  • Visit break out rooms
  • Contribute to sessions discussion 
  • Get early access to recorded presentations – a great opportunity if you can’t decide between the parallel sessions.

Did you know we have 4 workshops planned during the conference?

The following will be held in a virtual-only format. They are available to all delegates, whether they attending in-person or virtually.

  • WS1 Introduction to Jupyter Notebooks with Sara King
  • WS3 Trauma-Informed Archival Practice with Nicola Laurent and Kirsten Wright
  • WS4 Out-of-Home Care Records with Kirsten Wright and Nicola Laurent

The WS2 Dealing with Pests In Archival Collections workshop with the Queensland State Archives is still being offered in-person only in Brisbane. The conference committee is currently investigating virtual options.

Already registered and want to add a workshop? Send an email to event@archivists.org.au advising which workshops you want to attend and we’ll be in touch.

Our Lightning Talks will also be held virtually via Live-Stream only.
