These weeklong Institutes, held every summer, are designed to strengthen education and research and support academic cohort-building and mentoring. Institutes are open to all academic faculty and doctoral students working in Archival Studies, both nationally and internationally.

AERI is dedicated to supporting archival evidence and bringing together incoming and continuing doctoral students, recent doctoral graduates, and faculty from across the United States and worldwide. AERI was originally funded by a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS).
