"The archive is a pledge, a promise of responsibility to and for those who will follow. We don’t know what meanings the next generation will attribute to its contents. We do know that it can be a site of renewal, an invitation to explore the intentions of those who came before, and a reminder that the present was not foreordained but emerged from a world of possibilities. At some point in time we are all called to take up the tools that will turn us into accidental archivists, recording, sorting and retrieving the past in order to create a better future."
