Please join us next month for our Fall meeting, which will be a discussion of SAA’s 2018 One Book, One Profession selection, Perspectives on Women’s Archives. The book will be used as a springboard to discuss women’s collections and women’s archives so you do not need to have read the book to attend!
We are excited to announce that we will be hosting two versions of this meeting. The first, and primary, will be a panel discussion at the Philadelphia Museum of Art on September 12, and the second satellite meeting will be a small group discussion at the Chester County Historical Society on September 25. More details about each below:
