Jean Long asked me to send this along:
ICA Global Archives SPRING SOJOURN
April 22 (arrive) – April 28 (depart)
WHAT NEXT?
TASK: Create enticing forms to make our wisdom appealing on the new Archives Website.
Working in small teams we will work in several arenas:
1. Website structure continuation
2. Indexing 40 video stories taped during Fall Sojourn
3. Creation of storyboards (templates) and videotaped “elevator talks” for specific collections (program arenas) to make the material interactive and enticing
4. Begin work on indexing the content of 60 JWM talks. Thanks to Michael May these have been transferred to CDs and need table of contents for each
One of the gifts of this gathering is that we can also share what colleagues are doing in their locations to carry on “the mission”.
Cheap flight sales are on now. No previous archive experience needed. Early registrations get a choice of rooms near bathrooms.
