Introduction
Archives are for everyone. Every group can find something that interests them, they just need to become aware of what archives can offer them. Encouraging young people to engage with archives and records can provide a range of benefits to young people themselves, educators, and the archive sector as a whole.
If you are thinking about collaborating with schools, or hoping to convince your organisation that there are benefits to embarking on a project with the education sector, these five resources from the ArchI’ve Learnt Project are for you.
You can either view them online by clicking the buttons below, or download them as PDFs for use in your archive.
