RUTH BONNEVILLE / WINNIPEG FREE PRESS FAITH - Religious archives story for 49.8 Environmental Portrait of Jewish Heritage Centre, executive director, Belle Jarniewski, in roomful of floor to ceiling, movable shelves full of archival material. The archive material she is standing in has been properly archived but many rows of files still need attention. STORY INFO: At the Jewish Heritage Centre, executive director Belle Jarniewski also struggles to find space for the many items in the collection—more than 70,000 photos, 1,300 sound and moving image recordings, 1,000 textual records, 200 bound volumes of newspapers, and over 4,000 artefacts." They have hired a part-time archivist to handle all the new incoming documents and archive existing files that are needing it but even though he has been working for 4 years still has a room full of new documents that he hasn't been able to tackle yet.
