Administrative history
Founded in 1994, the Central Alberta Regional Museum Network (CARMN) is a collective of approximately forty community-based museums. These museums work together to conduct and facilitate research and to create publications and educational programs dealing with the heritage of Central Alberta.
The goal of CARMN is to "share knowledge and resources to strengthen all member museums so that they can better serve their communities."
CARMN’s membership spreads across central Alberta, an area bounded roughly from Nordegg to Donalda, Devon to Calgary, and Rosebud to Banff.
Custodial history
Records were transferred in six accessions between 2001 and 2007. Records were created as per projects, daily business, and administrative functions of the Central Alberta Regional Museums Network.
Scope and content
