At our Spring 2018 meeting, we will discuss how we can leverage archival materials or special collections to market our library’s services, resources, collections or expertise. If you work in an archives or a special collections unit and you’ve worked on a project to promote your collection, we want to hear from you! We want to hear your stories about how you used your archival materials to promote your library!
