Now for the Afterparty: A Summary of “ArchivesFest” in Milwaukee MAC’s 2016 Annual Meeting

Abstract

It’s a good thing that archivists had the “ArchivesFest” spirit, because the weather was not giving us any breaks—except that it did not snow on our festivities, April 27–30, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Workshops on Wednesday offered insight into Digital Preservation Strategies and Digital Curation Planning for the enthusiastic early-arrivers. On Thursday morning, warmly clothed participants walked to the Milwaukee Art Museum and Marquette University or loaded buses to the MillerCoors brewery and its archives and the Ward Irish Music Archives for tours. Others wisely stayed inside for workshops addressing career planning or grant writing, while the MAC Council met to plan and assess.
