The New England Archivists' Fall 2013 Symposium will focus on innovative thinking in the field of archives. The goal of this event is to inspire and challenge attendees, push the boundaries of current archival thought, and provide a forum for present and future dialog by illustrating ideas and 'what-if' scenarios that have yet to be explored by archivists in the New England region. The symposium will feature a plenary talk by Jeffrey Schnapp, (Harvard University) noted thinker in the realm of digital humanities; rounds of short presentations by NEA members; and robust moderated discussion of topics and ideas presented led by Jill Snyder (NARA) and Giordana Mecagni (Northeastern University). Tours of local repositories will be available in the morning. We hope you will join us for this spirited event!

Registration: Online; if people wish to pay by check, they can make checks payable to New England Archivists, and mail them to the attention of Juliana Kuipers, Harvard University Archives, Pusey Library Harvard Yard, Cambridge, MA 02138.
