Symposium on modern literary archives

In this all day symposium, hear from speakers exploring the technical challenges of born-digital archives, the importance of collecting diverse Scottish voices, the complexities of dispersed collections, and discuss how users interact with these archives.

The National Library of Scotland holds large archives of many key literary figures including Alasdair Gray, Muriel Spark, Sorley MacLean, Ian Rankin, Kathleen Jamie, James Kelman, and Jackie Kay.

This symposium is a golden opportunity to delve into the challenges and opportunities of collecting and preserving modern literary archives.
