Dear APLA members:
After last week's announcement about the federal cuts to jobs and programs at Library and Archives Canada, I noticed many postings to this list were sympathetic to the loss of the National Archival Development Program.
There is an online petition "Make it Better, Write a Letter" protesting the cancellation of this funding. We are trying to get 10,000 signatures on a letter to Mr. Harper. Would you consider adding your name?
Please share this link with as many people as you can.
For more information about the NADP, I've attached a fact sheet prepared by the Canadian Council of Archives, in English and French.
Sincerely,
Karen White
