+ Bringing archives and technology together!

The READ project is featured in the latest issue of Insights magazine, which is produced by the ICARUS organisation.  ICARUS represents more than 160 archives in over 30 countries.

The coverage explains the aims of the project and also gives a summary of the ‘Technology meets Scholarship’ conference in January 2016, where the READ project held its kick-off meeting.

Our appearance in Insights magazine should help to spread the word about READ!  We look forward to developing our relationship with the archival community as our project continues.
