Religious organizations have been bringing archival collections together for some time now, usually within their own administrative grouping. As they seek ways to make their collections more sustainable and increase access to them, religious organizations are joining forces through various creative models. You can learn more about some that are underway right now through a webinar later this fall that is designed for religious archivists and religious leaders: Collaborative Women Religious Archives initiatives: What Are the Options?
Presenting archives:
Boston College
Santa Clara University
Heritage and Research Center at St. Mary's (HARC)
Women Religious Archives Collaborative
Chicago Collaborative Archive Center
Leadership from the participating congregations will also answer questions about the initiatives and their processes.
This interactive webinar is offered by Archivists for Congregations of Women Religious (ACWR) on October 20, 2022, 1:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. (CDT)
