Dear fellow Ex-Librans,
We are excited to announce that registration is open for the Special Collections and Archives Interest Group's 2021 Annual Workshop, "Management in Many Forms: Coordinating People and Projects in Remote and Hybrid Environments." This workshop will take place on Wednesday, May 26th from 9:00AM - 11:30AM virtually on Zoom.
The event will consist of two one-hour panels, the first focusing on managing teams and projects within a special collections/archives department in a remote/hybrid environment, the second on managing projects with people outside of the library and archives, including donors, community members, and other stakeholders. There will be a half hour break in between each panel.
Joining us as presenters are:
-
Alia Levar Wegner, Digital Collections Librarian, Miami University
-
Kayla Harris, Marian Library Librarian/Archivist, University of Dayton
-
Henry Handley, Marian Library Collections Librarian, University of Dayton
-
Helen Conger, Archivist, Case Western Reserve University

SCAig's annual meeting provides an opportunity to gather people with an interest in special collections and archives to learn from changing and continuing practices. With a virtual synchronous event, we hope to reach a wide and diverse audience, and to provide an event that shows how we can support each other in library and archival work and maintain connections and collections in a time of upheaval.
Registration is free for Academic Library Association of Ohio (ALAO) members, $10 for non-members. Consider becoming an ALAO member if you're interested in attending! An annual ALAO membership is free for students, and the COVID-19 Relief membership fee for those economically impacted by the pandemic is $10 through July 1, 2021. If you have any questions, please contact me off the list.
We hope to see you there!
Sincerely,
Rachel Makarowski, on behalf of the SCAig 2021 Annual Workshop Planning Committee
