Archivists aren’t all about paper! This year, Archives Month went digital in the TriCollege Consortium of Swarthmore, Haverford, and Bryn Mawr. At three workshops on personal digital archiving, attendees learned best practices for managing digital files, discussed some of the specific challenges around digital preservation, and played a mystery game exploring the digital archives of a fictional spy!
For those interested in hosting a Personal Digital Archiving workshop for Archives Month next year, check out these great resources on which the TriCollege workshops were based, originally created by the Society of Georgia Archivists, the Atlanta chapter of ARMA International, and the Georgia Library Association.
