File this: new archivist

The prime minister announces -- it's a prime ministerial announcement? -- that the new Librarian and Archivist of Canada will be Daniel Caron, who in point of fact is neither a librarian nor an archivist, but has a stack of credentials.

Ian Wilson, who now retires after ten years and continues to be a big guy in international archives circles, gets to be Librarian and Archivist Emeritus. Congratulations to Ian.
