Here Goes Something ...

Hiya readers --

It is I, Deidre Dinnigan. Archivist, Heritage Specialist, and Proprietor of this website and its associated business, ForKeeps Inc.  

This is my very first blog post ever, ever! I was told to write… something … sometime … and there appears to be no better time than the present to start.

I read somewhere that blogging, as standard practice, can aid ones’ professional development along many lines so here I am ready to blog my view on things. As a newbie, I am apprehensive about using this very public “safe-space” to share my thoughts, but I am excited by the opportunity to share more about my work, contribute to the larger conversations being had in my profession and discuss all things archive and heritage related.

 I’d like to commit to a weekly post or commentary, and barring something beyond my control, I’ll be here every Wednesday by EOD with something topically timely.

If you are an archive professional or are simply interested in the world of archives and heritage work come visit me sometime. I encourage comments and questions.  

So please share your thoughts for what I hope will be lively blog correspondences.
