Tavush journalist Voskan Sargsyan warns.

I have received a complaint with the residents of the city of Ijran, the residents of the Large community of Ijevan have 34 km to be cut off to Dilijan, or farther, and farther away from the Archive.
In Ijevan, on the ground floor of "Haypost" building, there was also a national archive employees who accepted citizens, but a few months ago he was fired, that service does not work anymore.
The residents of Ijevan also expressed concern that after moving the archive from Ijevan to Vanadzor, archival documents may be lost.

He said that in 2021, several regional branches of the National Archive, including Tavushin, were dissolved, the archive in Ijevan was not in business, and the area was rented.

He also said that the residents of Ijevan community can use the Archive service through an email, paying an archival documents, paying a corresponding payment through "Haypost", they intend to further expand cooperation with "Haypost".
H. Hovhannisyan answered my questions in a friendly way, but there are many many people who are not able to use the national archive services, who are unable to use the Internet, they remain time and money from Ijevan to Dilijan, Vanadzor. "
