Project STAND: Highlights and Hurdles of a National Project on Social Justice and Archives| October 28, 2020
The National Native American Boarding
School(NABS) Healing Coalition discusses their initiative to identify and
collect nationally dispersed Native American boarding school records and to
implement digital access to these vital records.
As part of a broader effort to provide access to and information about those affected by Native American boarding schools, the NABS digital archive brings together digital surrogates of historical documents held by individuals and institutions across the United States, including libraries, state and federal archives, such as the National Archives and Records Administration, universities, colleges, schools, and other resources. As the project grows, the NABS team looks to archivists for guidance, assistance, and support.
Who Should Attend:
archivists, librarians, staff, managers who provide any type of information services.
What You Should Already Know:
No prior experience is necessary.
