The Chipewyan Prairie First Nation (CPFN) aims to preserve and share its cultural heritage by documenting the oral histories of Elders. The project’s objective is to record traditional teachings, land use practices, hunting, gathering, and cultural knowledge while documenting observed changes to the environment caused by local industry. The project also seeks to equip youth with employable skills through media training, fostering intergenerational connections and strengthening community bonds.

Consisting of 55,000 negatives, including 12,000 on glass, the Fonds Joseph-Eudore Lemay brings together the entire documentary collection of the most important photography studio established in Saguenay during the first half of the 20th century.
The goal of the project is to make the Fonds accessible and to improve its conservation.

This project will create a Canadian LGBTQ2+ Digital Collections Management Strategy for The ArQuives, including establishing digitization plans, policies, procedures, and workflows, and provide digitization and best practices training for LGBTQ2+ volunteers and staff.
