Partner Event: Archives in Action - Empowering Student Workers and Community Volunteers

This webinar will focus on the empowering opportunities that archives and special collections can offer both student workers and community volunteers. Highlighting specific projects at Bradley University and Illinois Wesleyan University, the speakers will share guidelines (and pitfalls) for incorporating volunteers and student workers into everyday operations in an archival environment.  Home to tedious tasks and resume-building projects, archives and special collections are uniquely positioned to offer hands-on experience and experiential learning. The speakers will also share tips for making this work meaningful and beneficial for everyone.

Liz Bloodworth, Assistant Professor, University Archivist & Special Collections Librarian, Illinois Wesleyan University
