Camerino, State Archives Section closes due to retirement of last employee


In Camerino, the State Archives Section closes due to retirement of the last employee. For the time being, action will be taken by using citizenship income recipients.

On Oct. 25, theState Archives of Camerino closed indefinitely due to the retirement of the last remaining employee. This was announced in a meager statement by Fausta Pennesi, director of the Macerata State Archives and Camerino Section. “With a view to a solution and a consequent reorganization of the services intended for users,” the note reads, “it is announced that information will be given through official channels as well as special communiqué published on this institutional website.”

The news sounded like a hoax, exactly five years after the sixth-degree quake on the Richter scale that shook central Italy on Oct. 26, 2016, also doing damage in Camerino. What will happen now? This afternoon the mayor of Camerino, Sandro Sborgia, intervened, reporting that he had spoken with the director general of archives of the Ministry of Culture, Anna Maria Bruzzi, who, according to the first citizen’s information, let it be known that “within a fortnight a unit of archival staff will arrive for the State Archives of Camerino, which will thus resume regular activity.”



To make up for the shortage, the mayor let it be known, citizenship income recipients will be employed for the time being. The resumption of regular activity, Sborgia said in fact, “will also be possible thanks to the support that the municipal administration will give to the Ministry of Cultural Heritage through the employment of staff who receive citizenship income, after the agreement signed last June. An office of the municipality has also been located inside the Archives with staff from the municipal structure, just to make sure that the section of our city can continue with its valuable activity.”
