Email archives are a valuable source of information and evidence. As more institutions grapple with challenges, and as others realize the full potential of email archives as a resource, age-old questions are being looked at anew. The goal of the EA symposium is to highlight the ways that now, more than ever, we can and must fully integrate email preservation and access into archival practice.

Email archiving is a developing field, and the goal of the symposium is to share the growth that has taken place over the last few years. Attendees will have the opportunity to learn about the latest developments in email archiving, connect with other professionals in the field, and contribute to the growing understanding of this important area. The symposium will include project briefings, panels, workshops, discussions, and more!
The symposium will be virtual and registration is free!
The symposium will share project results from the Email Archiving: Building Capacity and Community (EA:BCC) regrant program. Launched in 2019, the program funded nine institutions across two grant cycles to support the overarching goal of establishing a broad community of institutions that can preserve email as part of their research collections.
