At its last Annual General Meeting (Québec, November 2007) the voting members of ICA decided that International Archives Day should be celebrated on 9 June. It was on this day in 1948 that ICA was founded in Paris at UNESCO. The first ever International Archives Day is, therefore, also the 60th anniversary of ICA.
