Association of Turkish Archivists Demands the Correction of “Discharging” Mistake

Association of Turkish Archivists reacted against discharges in Directorate of State Archives and demanded their colleagues to be given back to duty.

With the new presidential system in Turkey, almost 300 officers working in Head Department of Ottoman Archives (which is now called Presidency Archives) were assigned to irrelevant institutions. Yüksel Baycar, President of Association of Turkish Archivists, demanded the resumption of the decision on the discharges.
