From 0 to 400 GB: Confronting the Challenges of Born-Digital Photographs

Earlier this month at the Society of American Archivists annual meeting in Atlanta, I got to chair and speak at a panel session on born digital campus photographs. Many thanks to my co-panelists Ed Busch, Chris Prom, Molly Tighe, and Greg Wiedeman, and thanks also to the audience for the great questions and conversation! Our combined slides are up on Slideshare and on the SAA event site.

Hey, librarian/archivists of tumblr! I'm going to SAA16 this year for the first time. Any advice on what to wear/see/do/bring? I'm starting grad school in the fall and thought it would be a good way to meet people in the field. I've never been to a conference before, so I'm a bit nervous. Thanks!

#SAA16, here we come!

Happy to report that the conference committee for the Society of American Archivists Annual Meeting has accepted “From 0 to 400 GB: Confronting the Challenges of Born-Digital Photographs,” a session proposal I submitted with Ed Busch (Michigan State), Chris Prom (University of Illinois), Molly Tighe (Chatham University), and Greg Wiedeman (SUNY Albany).

Looking forward to seeing everyone in Atlanta!
