  • 1.  New Hive Mind series!

    Posted Nov 28, 2022 04:45 PM

    The Hive Mind program series will be a periodic, 1 hour, unrecorded Zoom meetup open to all that focuses on an issue or topic that participants can use to frame practices in order to advocate within their institutions.  Meetups will be an informal discussion around specific topic areas, moderated by SAA's Issues & Advocacy Section steering committee members.  If there are topics you would like to see discussed during one of these sessions please email us at archivesissues@gmail.com.

    To kick off the Hive Mind program series, Issues & Advocacy Section members will be leading a discussion around how to advocate for ethical digitization practices in your institution on Thursday, December 15th from 2-3pm EST (1-2pm CT/12-1pm MT/11-12pm PST).  Zoom information below.

    Questions we plan to discuss include:

    • How are you framing your practices to protect the privacy of subjects?

    • What legal and ethical challenges have you encountered and worked around?

    • How do you balance contributing factors of climate change into your digitization outputs and goals?

    • How are archivists/institutions structuring digitization positions in ways that support sustainability of digital projects and ethical treatment of archival workers

      • Relatedly, what is the impact of off-shore data farming on vulnerable populations, such as in countries experiencing country-wide violence and/or infrastructure and economic instability, where income from data work comes with power/manipulation issues.

    We look forward to seeing you there! Please reach out with any questions or concerns.
