March 8th Oxana Velichko and Inger Lene Nyttingnes started working as project archivists at Skeivt arkiv. They will be working full time with packing and cataloging the archives of Helseutvalget and HivNorge the next five months, as part of a larger archival organisation project with focus on HIV and AIDS. These two archives, which in total comprise more than 60 linear metres, are largely uncataloged, and as such have been unavailable both for external users as well as for Skeivt arkivs own work. This project has been planned for a long time, and we are very happy that Oxana and Inger Lene now have started, especially because the archives now will be accessible in time for HivNorge's 30th anniversary this May.
