AI Summary

This resolution celebrates the birthday of Archie the Jr! Archivist, a beaver mascot for the New York State Archives, on April 7, 2025, which coincides with International Beaver Day. Introduced in 2024 at the New York State Fair, Archie aims to boost student engagement with New York's history and is associated with the "Jr!" magazine for kids. The resolution highlights the New York State Archives' mission of collecting, preserving, and providing access to historical and government records, and recognizes the Archives Partnership Trust's work in making historical records accessible. Archie has already distributed over 130,000 copies of his quarterly magazine across 54 counties, helping to increase interest in history and historic preservation among children and adults. The legislative body seeks to pause its deliberations to recognize Archie's contributions and will transmit a copy of the resolution to the New York State Archives and the Archives Partnership Trust, acknowledging the organization's efforts to promote and preserve the rich history of New York State.
