My name is Katrin Hurlimann-Graham and I have been working in the archival sector for the past 13 years. I’m originally from Switzerland where I studied history at the University of Zurich. While studying I worked part time at the Zurich State Archives undertaking arrangement and description of government records. After completing my Masters degree I started a contract at the Federal Archives in Bern working in an e-government project. In 2003 I made the big move halfway around the world following the sun and my heart to Brisbane.

My name is Kylie Moloney and I am the Executive Officer of the Pacific Manuscripts Bureau.
The Pacific Manuscripts Bureau was formed in 1968. The aim of the Bureau is to help with long-term preservation and accessibility of the documentary heritage of the Pacific Islands. The Bureau is based in the College of Asia and the Pacific at The Australian National University in Canberra. It is a non-profit organisation sponsored by an international consortium of libraries specialising in Pacific research. It is a rare example in the world of an on-going archival project involving a high level of international cooperation and commitment.
