The Association of Moving Image Archivists

Our diverse range of AMIA Committees and Task Forces collaborate with colleagues from around the world. We create forums for exchange, and develop programs and projects that move us all forward in a changing field.

AMIA was the first professional organization to offer scholarships specifically for students pursuing careers in moving image archives. Applications for scholarships and the IPI Internship program opened in January.

The AMIA Supplier Directory is an international resource guide for anyone working with audiovisual media. Find a supplier, or list your own services or products. We update the directory on a quarterly basis.

AMIA Spring 2021 will offer an opportunity for continuing discussions and new conversations affecting the field.
The Conference Committee works to present a broad-based program that speaks to a wide range of attendees with a balance of theory and practice, inviting new ideas and concepts that stimulate additional interest, involvement, and educational benefit. In keeping with ongoing membership discussions about diversity and inclusion, we urge proposers to use AMIA Conference sessions as an opportunity to include new voices and offer diverse viewpoints.

AMIA is seeking a highly experienced professional to perform grant writing for a variety of association-wide funding opportunities. The grants professional will be responsible for research, drafting, and finalization of grants for the continuation of the ADIFP Fellowship and other educational, EDI, and advocacy initiatives of AMIA.

We believe that our programming is strengthened with partnerships across institutions, geography, and areas of expertise so we can continue to strive for a more diverse, inclusive, and equitable approach to media preservation. We invite practitioners of all backgrounds to participate, lead webinars, and give feedback to help us create the best possible educational opportunities for our community.
