Manuscript Minute: Deaccessioning Is My Friend! Implementation of a New Deaccessioning Project

  • 1.  Manuscript Minute: Deaccessioning Is My Friend! Implementation of a New Deaccessioning Project

    Posted Feb 14, 2025 03:16 PM

    The Manuscript Repository Section steering committee invites you to join us on February 28 at 2pm for our first speaker in the Manuscript Minute series!

    Sarah Roberts of the Michigan State University Archives will lead an informal presentation on her recent deaccessioning project.  The project focuses on unprocessed accessions that no longer fit the institution's collecting policy and how she approached the removal of materials.  She will discuss the background and planning for the project as well as its progress.  There will be time for questions and discussion at the end.

    Please register as there is a 30 person cap on the discussion.

    Thank you and see you there!
