As Archivist you will be responsible for the management of the archive at MayDay Rooms. This work includes accessioning new archival deposits; securing and conserving documents; undertaking and overseeing cataloguing; and developing ways to ‘activate’ archival materials for a range of users and audiences. You will get to know the existing archive well, and guide users who want to know about materials, or who need direction within the archive. You will develop a strategic vision for the archive, seeking out new deposits and depositors, and developing projects to bring radical histories to audiences who might need them, and bringing those activists into the work of collective archiving of our own histories from below.
