Summary
Do you want to extend the reach and effectiveness of your archives program?
Are you frustrated with managers, resource allocators, colleagues, and
others who ³just don¹t get it²? Do you lack time to advocate for archives?
Don¹t retreat, muttering, to your processing room! Join us for this full-day
workshop that will inspire you to advocate for archival programs and give
you the skills you need. You¹ll learn how to effectively describe the
importance of archives, identify appropriate audiences for your message, and
tailor messages to those audiences. Last, you¹ll learn how to fit advocacy
into your busy schedule by making it a part of everything that you do.
