Join me as we take a look at the fascinating world of preservation and archives. Did you know Queen’s University Archives is home to an extraordinary collection of records—both paper and digital—that document not only the University’s history but also that of Kingston, its surrounding regions, and countless notable Canadians and everyday lives?

To uncover the secrets behind this important work, I sat down with Jeremy Heil, Acting University Archivist and Associate University Librarian at Queen’s. Together, we discuss his dedication to preserving history, the remarkable treasures found in the archives, and the dream project he’d bring to life if anything were possible.

Recorded in early December 2024, this episode provides an engaging glimpse into the archives and the invaluable stories they safeguard.

Discover how the past is preserved and shared in this insightful conversation!
