Published purpose

By increasing access to and awareness of their archival collection, the Ogniwo Polish Museum aims to educate people about Polish-Canadian history through the stories of everyday individuals and Polish community organizations. A Polish-speaking archivist will arrange and describe specified materials, create finding aids, and enter record descriptions into the Museum’s archival database. The scope of this project includes previously processed records and unprocessed records. The organization has also identified numerous photographic and textual documents of enduring value that are in deteriorating condition due to poor storage conditions before donation. After processing the specified collection, the organization will share these records through the Manitoba Archival Information Network and the Museum’s social media pages and websites.
