Into the Stacks - Sara's Month in Review

 

 

So long, farewell! It’s my turn to say goodbye to our Into the Stacks tour. I hope you enjoyed the behind the scenes look into my job.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You first saw me using a light box to identify Alsos Mission negatives:

Secondly, I showed you what the proper folders and boxes needed for housing archival material:

In January, I introduced you to the metadata clean-up project that the Visual Archives is working on. We are going through each image to provide as much information as possible for our users.

I leave you with more insight into the rehousing of photographs. A large donation of photographs came in recently from the American Astronomical Society that need to be preserved.

I’ve had a wonderful time sharing a look into my daily life at the Visual Archives with all of you! Be on the look out for Emily’s blog post coming up and keep an eye out for future posts from us all.
