#Archive30 is a Twitter meme used by archivists and others who look after and work in archives to highlight interesting things in their archives and shine a bit of light onto their day-to-day work, which is often behind the scenes and 'invisible' even to most users of the archives. Much of what many archivists do, and the content of the records we deal with, is confidential and/or governed by copyright, privacy and other regulations and legislation that means we can't discuss it. But in fact our work is usually not only interesting and important but satisfying and fun, and this is one way to share some of the shareable bits with more people!
If you're on Twitter, have a look at the hashtag #Archive30 to see what's happening in archives near and far...
