Industry Documents LibraryWe’re still celebrating our Archival Innovator Award from @archivists_org! #TBT featuring our OIDA team members who also presented at #saa2023. https://www2.archivists.org/recipients/archival-innovator-award-opioid-industry-documents-archive
kcroweReminded since #saa2023 is happening, I did say I'd find a way to turn these into enamel pins but that clearly didn't happen. Tbh this phrase isn't even from me but the far wittier Maureen Callahan.
Greg WiedemanIn honor of #saa2023 I would like to share this email that I am putting in a mailbag in our preservation storage because of its long term value #PermanentRetention
Attending the @archivists_org Annual Meeting this week? See OIDA team members present (in-person and online) “Preserving Documents for Public Health with the Opioid Industry Documents Archive.” Hope to see you there! https://whova.com/embedded/session/NFdCWcgMulEQMwx9Xmlwgf4rdPHHEcJf8mkv5hKzZJ8%3D/3016061/?widget=primary. #saa2023 #saa23
James Truitt (he/him)God, The amount of notifications in Whova is overwhelming. I wish I could unsubscribe from certain notifications, like the community discussions (many of which are irrelevant to me) or recommended attendees (I don't care that someone who graduated from my MLIS program 10 years ago has set up their profile, and I don't want to hunt through 4 pages of attendees to mark the notification as read)
Oy, there are 3 great sessions in the #SAA2023 300 block that I really want to attend. Curse concurrence!
Started setting up my schedule for #SAA2023 today, and Whova somehow pulled in a copy of my resume automatically?? Creepy creepy creepy
Marcy RockmanNew heritage feature by @carbonbrief!
Gathering hosted by University of East Anglia last week brought together approaches to recognizing cultural heritage as part of global attention to and action on climate loss and damage.
Why does this matter? In words of organizer Dr. Joanne Clark
“Heritage is all the inherited conditions, objects, places and culture, as well as contemporary activities, knowledge, meanings and behaviours that are drawn from. Literally, heritage is everything that we are and everything that we want to become. So it is crucial for the preservation of society and social wellbeing. And it is increasingly thought to offer recognition to underrepresented populations.”
There have been many times when I've wished for a (net zero?) transporter beam so I could effectively be in two places at once. #SAA2023 was great, but I really wanted to be in the UK for this too.
