Meeting # 9: Diversity in the Archival Profession

 

Thursday, August 7th, 4-5pm

Beinecke Room 38

 

Discussion Leaders: Intern Brigade (Audrey Pearson, Robin Katz, Martha Horan, Bergis Jules)

 

 

 

 

We will discuss Elizabeth Adkins' Presidential Address given at the SAA Annual Conference in 2007.   "Our Journey Toward Diversity and a Call to (More) Action" in American Archivist (Vol. 71, No. 1/Spring-Summer 2008, pp. 18-20)

 

 

This article offers a brief but rich historical background on SAA and diversity issues within the profession.  It also covers current programs and strategies to recruit a more diverse workforce and touches on some of the issues surrounding the meaning of diversity. Enjoy it and we look forward to this discussion.
