The Society of Rocky Mountain Archivists is hosting a virtual Continuing Education event on June 27, 2022, from 11:00 AM-2:30 PM MDT:
Community Archives: Expanding our Circles of Care in Academia
Registration is free for SRMA members, or $20.00 for non-members.
This continuing education session on community archives brings together archival practitioners from within academic libraries and professional organizations to explore ways to expand circles of care in their work. Presenters from UC Santa Cruz, UC Irvine, and the Association of Moving Image Archivists' Community Archiving Workshop will share lessons from their experiences in establishing, growing, and maintaining community archiving projects and programs. Their presentations and discussions will touch on strategies for forming meaningful and reciprocal community relationships, for obtaining buy-in and material support from campus administrators and stakeholders, and activating professional organizations for regional collaboration across institutions.
Session schedule TBD. A 30-minute lunch break will be included, while the Zoom session will remain open for discussion and community building.
