Status Update
May 6, 10:30-12:30
May 7, 10:30-12:00
Inquiring archivists are eager to know what is new at your organization in 2021! Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it has been over a year since we have been able to connect in person. Join us on May 6th and 7th for conference sessions, the KCA business meeting, and a Brown Bag lunch. We hope this informal lunch allows for members to connect with fellow KCA members. Presentation topics include remote digital preservation workflows, teaching with judicial archival materials, remote event planning, and inter-institutional collaboration during the pandemic. Attend the KCA virtual Annual Meeting and share your status update!
Online registration ends April 30. Registration is free.
