Religious Archives Institute and
Supplementary Workshops, 2007
Dates: June 4 - June 12, 2007
Location: Catholic University of America
Religious Archives Institute Brochure DOC format
Description
The Religious Archives Institute is an intensive course designed to
prepare students for work with religious records, manuscripts, and
objects. The course material is presented by historians, archivists,
librarians, and museum curators, and participants will participate in at
least one related site visit in the Washington DC area towards gaining
knowledge of varieties of archival management and operations.
This Institute will follow a slightly different schedule than in years
past. First, we will be holding it earlier in the summer than
previously, and second, we will be holding a one week general training
course to be followed by two separate themed day-long sessions that
individuals can sign up for in addition to the week long program, or
separately and exclusive of the week long session. The themed sessions
will not overlap in subject area with the week long session. Hence,
individuals looking only for general archival training can simply sign
up for the 5-day session; those looking for more specific training in
handling historical objects, photographs and digitization, and running
an archive can choose one or all three of the day long sessions,
conveniently scheduled to follow the general week long training institute.
