Archiving 101: Catalogues and Spreadsheets

Join our Director Tracey Guiry and Archivist Clare Wood as they break down the myths and jargons around recording and storing information and cataloging data. If you are a student or academic interested to pursue a career in literature and archiving, or simply a curious soul interested in and understanding the historic implications of archival relevance, come along to learn, share and ask questions.

Archiving The Aldeburgh Poetry Festival: Workshop series

From 1986 to 2016, the Aldeburgh Poetry Festival drew poets from around the world. The Poetry Archive has preserved this unique and fascinating collection, which consists of over 383 hours of festival recordings, to ensure its legacy continues to be celebrated. As we undertake this task of cataloging, defining and classifying this enormous collection, we would like to invite you into our process.
