AMMs are a wonderful opportunity to network with colleagues from across the sector in Scotland and beyond. You will be able to hear directly from our Chair, Trustees and those responsible for delivering our vision of leading Scotland’s archives and records management community to inform and inspire the nation.

The AMM will immediately be followed by two presentations: Tim Gollins (National Records of Scotland) will provide an overview of web archiving and its future, and Victoria Stobo (University of Liverpool, and SCA Trustee) will provide an update on copyright, the work of WIPO, and the possible implications of Brexit.
