NOTICE: Maritime History Archive Outage

Due to a recent internet outage at Memorial University of Newfoundland, the website of the Maritime History Archive (MHA) is down until further notice. If you are looking for information on the Crew Agreement collection, visit the Crew List Index. Otherwise, please contact mha@mun.ca for inquiries about the collection.

Maritime History Workshops

We are a group of three maritime historians who wish to provide a forum for emerging and new scholars of maritime history to meet and discuss ideas, share their research, and benefit from advice of senior researchers, maritime specialists, museum and archival researchers, and journal editors.

Maritime History Workshops is on pause for Fall 2026. We have been offering free maritime history programming for five years, so we are taking a brief break. We plan to resume workshops in the Winter of 2027 and the call will be posted here and distributed via maritime history networks.

For Winter 2027, we are interested in exploring digital archives and databases. Any ideas or feedback can be sent to infomarworkshops@gmail.com.

Our hosts

We work in partnership with the Maritime History Archive in St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador and use the digital meeting client Webex. See below for other events the MHA and MHW have jointly organized.
