Archives in a public library? Join a community!
By Donna DiMichele | April 4, 2011
Here is an important community for any public libraries that hold archives and/or special collections
The Public Library Archives/Special Collections Forum (PLASC) became officially active in February of 2010. A Roundtable of the Society of American Archivists*, the PLASC serves to encourage advocacy for and education about archival, manuscript, local history, genealogy, and other historic and special collections within public libraries of all sizes. The PLASC Roundtable provides an arena for discussion and dissemination of best practices of the archival, library, museum and history fields; and works to support the informational, historical, and cultural interests which converge in public library archives and special collections.
*You do not have to be a member of the Society of American Archivists to participate!
