How To Create An Oral History Program, Devin McKinney 2016 Gettysburg College

How To Create An Oral History Program, Devin Mckinney

However, when funds and time are limited, these ideals can seem impossible to implement. What's an archivist to do? One easy and affordable option is to create an oral history program. This workshop will give you the skills and the confidence to start an oral history program at your own institution. It will cover the main steps from performing preliminary research and developing questions all the way through thinking about how to promote and use your oral histories once …


Shall We Dance? The Re-Housing And Digitization Of Gettysburg College Dance Cards, Avery N. Fox, Alexa R. Schreier 2016 Gettysburg College

Shall We Dance? The Re-Housing And Digitization Of Gettysburg College Dance Cards, Avery N. Fox, Alexa R. Schreier

All Musselman Library Staff Works

The Gettysburg College Dance Card Collection contains over 100 dance cards from multiple accessions and of differing sizes and materials. The collection was previously kept in small, crammed boxes; its re-housing and digitization were an evident necessity. The needs and goals of this project were two-pronged: first, establishing physical and intellectual control over the items by building custom housing and enhancing item descriptions; and second, creating a digital collection featuring samples and highlights of the dance cards.

Using this report as a frame, department heads from different institutions will discuss their experiences and perspectives on the changing environments in their respective Archives and Special Collections departments. How do reorganizations affect us, and can they present opportunities to re-envision department structures? What is the impact of the increase in instruction we provide and how can we address that …

Developing Scan-And-Return Collecting At Unlv Libraries, Emily Lapworth

This presentation discusses how UNLV is providing access to primary
sources that would otherwise remain in the hands of private individuals.

UNLV’s Digital Collections.
