The Council of General Synod has appointed Nancy J. Hurn General Synod
Archivist. Council made the appointment at its regular fall meeting in
Mississauga, Ont., last week.

Ms. Hurn, a member of St. Matthew's Anglican Church, Islington, has
15 years experience in archives work in Toronto, as Senior archivist
with the former Metropolitan Toronto Archives and most recently as
Archivist with Finance and Corporate Services portfolio responsibilities
at the amalgamated City of Toronto Archives. Her work also included 10
years as archivist and records administrator for the Canadian National
Exhibition Association and Board of Governors of Exhibition Place.
She has served as chair of the Diocese of Toronto Archives
Committee and was a member of the former General Synod Archives Committee.

Ms. Hurn succeeds Terry Thompson who served as General Synod Archivist
from 1979 to 2003. Ms Hurn will assume her new duties effective 1
January 2004.

The General Synod Archives includes an extensive collection of historic
materials relating to the Anglican Church of Canada, and has
responsibility for records management at the Church's national office.
In recent years, litigation on claims filed by former students at Indian
Residential Schools has required significant and helpful research with
the archives historical records.
