The Disability Archives Lab investigates the ways that archives and the materials they hold document, shape, and impact disabled people—in history and today. Keeping critical disability studies at the forefront of researching and building projects around disability and archives, the Lab hosts projects and research initiatives that center the politics of disability, how disabled people are affected by historic representation, and how to imagine archival futures that are centered around disabled desires.

The Lab is directed by Gracen Brilmyer, Assistant Professor at the School of Information Studies at McGill University.
