the archive of public memory and the archive of documentary record often bear an uneasy, shifting relation to each other’

David Greetham, “Who’s in, Who’s out - The Cultural Poetics of Archival Exclusion’

This feels true of the overlapping and sometimes contesting accounts of life within Carlton Mansions. The records and the informal conversations do not comfortably align.

Commentary on "Archival Strategies": The Archival Image, Eric Ketelaar

‘Without access and use, no archives can survive. Reinventing archives therefore means redefining the relationship between archival institutions and the citizen - archives “of the people, by the people, for the people.” The success of an archival program, of the archival profession, depends on the extent to which we can make our archives (paper archives, electronic archives, and virtual archives alike) into people’s archives’

Lambeth Archives acquisitions seem to be an attempt to change perceptions of what is valued by historical institutions - perhaps by bringing these documents into view I can help to be a part of this process myself.
