Emeritus Scholarship Winner of 2014 Enjoys MAC’s Annual Meeting
- Julie Hatfield (University of Wisconsin–Eau Claire)
Abstract
My first MAC Annual Meeting was a great success! Since graduating from the UW–Milwaukee School of Information Studies in May 2013, I am becoming more involved in the profession, which included attending my first archival conference. The MAC Annual Meeting went above and beyond my expectations. I was able to meet, network with, and find new midwestern archivists to follow on Twitter; meet up with former classmates and other UW–Milwaukee alumni and archivists; and learn how other archives are using social media and digitization for outreach to users. Many of the sessions I attended concerning social media, digital preservation, and digital humanities will help with my current position at the UW–Eau Claire Special Collections and Archives, where I am developing a digital collections portal of the university’s history and promoting it through Facebook and Twitter.
