Published purpose

The Canadian Centre for Architecture (CCA) plans to develop a comprehensive language audit in the CCA’s existing finding aids. It is the first stage towards adopting equitable and inclusive descriptive practices throughout all stages of archival management at the CCA. The CCA will first examine and critique its past methods to develop strategies and workflows for future description work. Using automated tools and manual verification, the CCA will search for outdated and harmful language that appear in the archival descriptions of 215 fonds.
