Archives sector to be represented by a new body
The green light has been given for the merger of the Society of Archivists (SoA), the National Council on Archives (NCA) and the Association of Chief Archivists in Local Government (ACALG) into a new body to be known as the Archives and Records Association (ARA) which will cover the UK and Republic of Ireland.
The Federation of Family History Societies is a Council Member of NCA and supports the merger. We look forward to participating in ARA where we will continue to represent the views of users of archives. More information about the merger can be seen at http://www.nca.org.uk/materials/press_release_ara.pdf.
