Em celebração ao Dia Internacional dos Arquivos - 9 de junho (data que pouco comemoramos no Brasil) uma das atividades internacionais em curso é o apoio à Declaração Universal sobre Arquivos.
As assinaturas brasileiras são ainda poucas.
Vamos mobilizar colegas e alunos para apoiarmos a Declaração e celebrarmos o Dia Internacional dos Arquivos?
O endereço para assinatura esta no e-mail abaixo reproduzido.
Um abraço,

Colleagues,
June 9 is International Archives Day. Why not celebrate by showing your support of the Universal Declaration on Archives,which was endorsed by UNESCO in 2011.
You can 'sign' the online register either as an individual or on behalf of an institution, organisation or association at http://icarchives.wufoo.com/forms/register-your-support-for-the-uda/
The Declaration is an important step in improving understanding and awareness of archives among the general public and key decision-makers. It is a powerful, succinct statement of the relevance of archives in modern society.
