Canadian librarian and archivist Ian Wilson was elected the new president of the International Council on Archives (ICA) for a two-year term. Wilson, 65, was elected Friday to replace Austrian Lorenze Mikoletzky, at the ongoing 16th International Council Congress on Archives (ICA) annual general meeting (AGM) held here. He was quoted as saying after the election that he would work at enhancing networking among the ICA’s countries and to promote the use of automated e-mail and other modern technology to link archives and archivists around the world. Wilson has been involved with the Canadian archival and library communities for more than 30 years and is also actively giving lectures in university and government service. Some 1,200 archivists from 138 countries are in Kuala Lumpur to attend a one-week Congress on International Council on Archives (ICA) which commenced July 21.
