Abstract

We admit it. The archives profession is implementing reappraisal and deaccessioning practices in new ways. In this session, archivists divulge real-world experiences in true-confessions style. Archivists discuss using crowd-sourcing techniques for reappraisal, evaluating an eight-year old project, and how these practices have clarified existing policy and increased usability.

Description

Lightning round presentation within a larger set of presentations regarding archivists' experiences with reappraising and deaccessioning collections.
