Michigan Archival Association Virtual Annual Meeting, June 19-20, 2023

We hope you are able to join us for our 2023 Virtual Annual Meeting!

This year we have a great lineup of informational and educational sessions including topics on: primary sources, crowdsourcing, digital initiatives at the Ilitch Holdings, Inc. Archives, using Story Maps for outreach, and lessons from the first year of the UPLINK (Upper Peninsula Digital Network) project.

Our Keynote speaker is Sheila L. Chingwa, Archivist of the Little Traverse Bay Band of Odawa Indians.  She will introduce us to the life of a Tribal Archivist and share the story of Julius and Judith Keywaygoshkum and the intriguing rescue mission to save their records.

Also included with registration is a Digital Preservation Policy Workshop taught by Michigan Digital Preservation Network's Coordinator Chelsea Denault, Ph.D. and Cinda May, co-founder of InDiPres.  Attendees will emerge from the workshop with a draft policy and helpful roadmap for continuing development, including building a digital preservation team in their organization.  

The MAA business meeting is free to MAA members and access to the recorded sessions will be provided once the conference has concluded.
