    OFFICE ESTABLISHED IN ANTELIAS FOR THE PRESERVATION OF ARMENIAN MEDIA
    ARCHIVES CONTINUES ITS WORK

    The department for the preservation of Armenian media archives established
    under the auspices of His Holiness Aram I as part of the Catholicosate of
    Cilicia's Armeonology projects continues its active work in Antelias.

    Established six months ago, the department operated parallel to a committee
    of five appointed by His Holiness: V.Rev. Krikor Chiftjian, Yervant
    Pamboukian, Jirayr Tanielian, Shahan Kandaharian and Aharon Shekherdemian.
    The committee held its regular meeting on June 20 in the presence of the
    department's benefactor, Mr. Gabriel Tchemberdjian. The department's task to
    digitalize the Armenian Press published particularly in the Middle East aims
    at preserving the press and facilitating the work of those interesting in
    researching it.

    The department's work will make Armenian press clippings available to the
    public along with a search engine for finding articles by authors or other
    details. Parallel to the department's work, the Diocese of Aleppo is
    involved in scanning the local Armenian press in order to facilitate the
    huge task at hand. This project also is sponsored by Mr. Gabriel
    Tchemberdjian.
