October 30 is #AskAnArchivist Day

By October 24, 2014September 16th, 2023No Comments

On October 30, archivists across the United States will take to Twitter to answer your questions about any and all things archives. This day-long event, sponsored by the Society of American Archivists, gives you the opportunity to connect directly with archivists here at the University of Minnesota Libraries to ask questions, get information, or simply to satisfy your curiosity.

As professional experts who do the exciting work of protecting and sharing important historical materials, archivists have many stories to share about the work they do every day in preserving fascinating documents, photographs, audio and visual materials, and artifacts. Increasingly, archival work extends beyond the physical and includes digital materials.

How to ask a University of Minnesota archivist

Tweet your questions on October 30 by tagging @umnlib and using the #AskAnArchivist hashtag. We will have several archivists throughout the workday ready to answer your questions about the work they do and the ways you can learn about our archives and special collections.
