This collection offers powerful, concrete examples of trauma in archival work across varied perspectives and organizations. It provides invaluable insight for new archivists and much-needed validation for experienced professionals, while making important contributions to our field's ongoing conversations about archival labor. I recommend it to academics, archivists, and students alike!

A Practical Guidebook to Trauma-Informed Archival Practice is a beautiful meditation on the intersections of grief, memory, and forgetting. Each chapter shares a new facet in understanding trauma in archives, with representation from religious archives, indigenous archives, academic archives, managers, student workers, archival donors, and people accessing the archives. Reading this book is both instruction and invitation: to learn from many perspectives, to dream of a more person-centered and empathetic profession, and to find community in grief as an inevitable and shared experience.
