Caitlin Rizzocrizzo@ias.eduPanel PresentationCritical Curatiorial Practices for Science and Technology CollectionsI am hoping to take a look at how archivists and curators of STEM collections (particularly STEM collections from the 20th and 21st centuries) are approaching issues of critical librarianship, including diversifying collections, representing dissent and criticism, and dealing with misinformation as a political tool in popular culture.

Lindsey Memorylindsey_memory@byu.eduPanel/Joint presentationDeveloping digital environment/primary source usageWe undertook several usability/needs studies to better understand our digital audiences, including one very interesting set of interviews with campus faculty who use primary sources in their research and teaching. If anyone else is looking at their online audiences or the use of digitized primary sources in pedagogy, let's talk!

Ana D. Rodriguez and Stephanie M. Lukeanarodz@illinois.edu and smluke2@illinois.eduPanel presentation?Rethinking description: Bringing to life manuscript collections in digital environmentsWe want to discuss how we are rethinking how we describe special collections materials. We focus on expanding description of physical collections to digital environments. We have collaboratively created new procedures to revisit archival collections, digitize these materials, and describe them at item-level. This facilitates discoverabilty and access. We share how our experience with legacy collections has changed the ways in which we approach processing and description for new and future collections.Laura Doublet, lauradoublet@uvic.ca, University of Victoria, B.C.; Elizabeth A. Robinson, erob@loc.gov (I submitted a standalone proposal on our recently-completed rare materials retrospective conversion (recon) project. In said, I indicated to the planning committee that I am open to being part of a program including other data conversion projects. I am assuming the archival collections had some sort of metadata (paper finding aids?) before the digitization and item-level cataloging, yes?).

Panel presentation? (part of line 4 panel above?)
From inventory to integrated cataloging: an iterative approach to cataloging a large periodical collectionA multi-year, multi-phase project to transform an outdated HTML inventory for a large collection of immigrant community periodicals to full cataloging at the issue level. The approach includes creative use of staffing and technologies, including batch-level creation of minimal catalog records that can be enhanced over time

Anna Loewenthalaloewen3@jhu.eduPanel presentation?Boundwiths/unique formats at odds with library systems OR How migrating library systems changed cataloging practicesHow do different libraries and LMSs handle boundwiths? Whether it's a 17th century sammelband or a stack of periodicals in one box, what is the best way to represent intellectually separate publications as one physical item in a way that makes sense to both catalogers and users? JHU recently migrated from Horizon to Alma, which has a very different way of handling boundwiths, so we are figuring out our new method while fixing all the migrated records.Ruth-Ellen St. Onge (stongr2@mcmaster.ca), McMaster University | Paloma Graciani, paloma.graciani@austin.utexas.edu, Harry Ransom Center | Sarah Hovde (shovde@umd.edu), University of Maryland Libraries | Megan Chellew, McGill University (megan.chellew@mcgill.ca)

jacqueline.devereaux@vanderbilt.edu;mary.mcsparran@Vanderbilt.Edu Panel or discussion sessions How do you tackle legacies of artifical archival collections - or separating/bringing together University Archives versus Special Collections archivesWe have a legacy of materials in our department being separated for various reasons - historically the UA materials have not been accessible to the public so the impact of separating materials into manuscripts or university archives...what is the division?

Melanie Griffin and Anastasia Armendarizmgriffin17@unl.edu ; anastasia.armendariz@pepperdine.eduPanel presentationIn Defense of Slowing Down: The Affordances of Slow Librarianship in Rare Books, Special Collections, and ArchivesThis panel uses the framework of slow librarianship to explore sustainable, generative, responsive, and anti-racist methods for building momentum in our careers and our field. Typically described in opposition to achievement culture, slow librarianship prioritizes values-driven and responsive practices. This panel considers how slow librarianship can generate momentum for personal and professional growth through explorations of strategic planning, professional development, and (insert your topic here!) :)

Joshua Youngbloodjcyoungb@uark.eduPanel presentationTacking into the interdisciplinary wave: cross campus partnerships to promote rare books and archives learningI'd like to present about rare books librarians and archivists teaching for-credit topical courses and partnering with teaching faculty outside of the Library in order to raise the profile of the collections and highlight various learning possibilities. This is an approach I've had success with at the Univeristy of Arkansas through Honors College seminars (with Mathematics, history, and other disciplines) and would love to see a panel that brings together ways to advance special collections teaching across campus in interdisciplinary ways. Colleen Theisen, Lecturer, University of Iowa. If needed, I started teaching for-credit classes and ended up transferring over to teaching full time.

Rebecca Fitzsimmons, Special Collections Librarian, Illinois State University. Teaching Honors seminars and also co-taught an art history class completely redesigned around our collection of Rennaissance prints and rare books. Outcome was fully student-curated and designed exhibition built on learming art history, hands-on collections work, and learning about writing/curating/communication for exhibits (sorry I'm coming to this a little late!) Carol Street, Undergraduate Research Archivist, University of Kentucky. I manage the Learning Lab, an archival internship program that teaches an interdisciplinary undergraduate cohort about archives and mentors them through an independent research project based on an unprocessed archival collection.

Colleen Theisencolleen-theisen@uiowa.eduDiscussion or panel sessions Virtual Momentum in Special Collections Public ServicesWe launched a lot of virtual services in March 2020. Hybrid and online teaching sessions. New social media efforts. One on one zoom appointments with researchers. Virtual reading room services. Nearly four years on, what remains? What is the momentum forward for sustainable virtual services? Did those all collapse in burnout? I'd like to put together a panel on virtual instruction and patron services that carry on, and grow from here, as a virtual panel for the online part of the conference.

jacquelyn Sundbergjacquelyn.sundberg@mcgill.caDiscussion or panel sessionCooking connections; Using cookbooks and culinary Ephemera to engage new studentsCookbooks and culinary ephemera can be a rich starting point for students of all ages, not to mention a great topic for public outreach events. I'm interested in teaching and outreach activities based specifically in Culinary collections and ephemera collections, and the work needed to develop methods and lesson-plans for engaging, level-appropriate sessions for different audiences; undergraduates, graduates, general public, and even children! I'd be interested in a panel discussion on teaching with Ephemeral and culinary collections in new ways, or with new audiences, and the methods and challenges involved in crafting content and activities for students with very different needs.Audrey Russek, Food and Wine Archivist, UC Davis Library, asrussek@ucdavis.edu (in-person panel preferred); Steph Noell, Special Collections Librarian, University of Texas at San Antonio Libraries, steph.noell@utsa.edu; Isabel Cazares, Arizona Historical Society archives, icazares@azhs.gov

Kelly Hudson and John Whitehudsonkk@cofc.eduPanel presentationThe Perils of Benign Neglect:
A Cautionary Tale of How NOT to
Organize and Maintain a Museum		We propose a panel in which two of the presenters document the many missteps in the story of a failed museum as well as highlight the College of Charleston's plan to save the collection and correct years of mismanagement. Participants will be advised of the challenges and pitfalls of accepting a gift when the library or archives lack resources to properly care for or manage it. We welcome other panelists to join who have faced similiar challenges in regards to donated collections (especially ephemera, artifacts, and/or material culture) or in regards to exhibitions or museums.
