Guidelines for College and University Archives survey - invitation to participate

  • 1.  Guidelines for College and University Archives survey - invitation to participate

    Posted Sep 23, 2021 04:57 PM

    Dear colleagues,

     

    The College and University Archives Section of the Society of American Archivists periodically reviews its Guidelines for College and University Archives, a comprehensive document that recommends best practices specific to our colleagues' needs.

     

    The Guidelines were created in 1999, with the most recent revisions made in 2006. The Section Steering Committee is now beginning a comprehensive review of the Guidelines that will inform updates and revisions through a process that is anticipated to take approximately two years to complete.

     

    This process starts with you, our Section membership. Please take some time to review the Guidelines in their current form here, and then complete our 10-minute survey at this link: https://bgsu.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_cAb6oxJuWAdOmiy

     

    A PDF of the survey is also available here for additional review. 

     

    Your responses will be confidential, and are essential in assisting the Steering Committee as it updates this important resource.

     

    Thank you,

     

    C&U Standards Subcommittee, College and University Archives Section
