PLENARY 2: A BROAD AND DEEP LOOK AT OUTREACH

Sponsored by: Maggs Bros. Ltd.

This session seeks to demonstrate the myriad ways special collections and archives can engage and interact with multiple constituencies. The communities and cultures in which institutions are situated strongly influence what is collected, how resources are described, and how materials are accessed and used. Speakers will share with us new methods by which we communicate and the infrastructures we create to elicit productive conversations about engagement with a broader range of communities and cultural materials than we might traditionally.

Moderator: Erika Dowell, Indiana University
