  • 1.  C&UA HOSTED COFFEE CHAT THIS WED, 11/17 @ 3PM EST

    Posted Nov 15, 2021 04:11 PM

    Good day, SAA colleagues!

    In an attempt to welcome as many guests as possible to what have been truly wonderful discussions across myriad topics (mostly connected to managing during pandemic times) the Steering Committee of the College and University Archives (C&UA) Section would like to invite you to join us in our next online coffee chat scheduled for this Wednesday at 3pm EST, 2pm CST.  See below for the chat invite link.

    Please join C&UA section steering committee member Liz Scott as she discusses art collections in the archives. Are you responsible for art collections on campus? Do you have a favorite CMS you are using to keep track of things? Do you do exhibitions with your artwork or loan out pieces? Maybe you have archival collections about artists? Join your C&UA colleagues in an informal chat about art collections and art in the archives.

    After 19 months of weekly chats, we have learned many lessons, not the least of which is that archives practice truly transcends section boundaries and we have experienced much-added value when non-C&UA section members have contributed.

    We also have gotten the message from chat visitors that while one might not be employed by a college or university today, one just might be tomorrow! Be ready for such a transition well beforehand by getting an inside glimpse into such environments via our chats.

    So, whether you are a C&UA member or not, please join in the conversation; we would love to hear from you!

    Sincerely,
    The College & University Archives Section Steering Committee
