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.

For those 2018 AMIA Conference participants who are interested in sharing accommodation in Portland, AMIA will maintain a list of attendees searching for roommates. You will be emailed a copy of the list so that you may contact potential roommates directly. Please try to submit your information as early as possible while appropriate room accommodations are still available. We strongly suggest any room reservations be made by October 24th. AMIA’s discount rate ends and rooms will be limited.

The 2018 AMIA Conference is right around the corner!

The new AMIA pAVilion scheduled for two days – Friday, November 30th and Saturday, December 1st and will bring together our traditional Vendor Cafe with an AV Fair, skill shares, “ask an expert” spaces, and small group discussions. Our goal is to create a hub for sharing information at the conference.

For Exhibitors this means a full day of programmed activity in the pAVilion on Friday and Saturday.
