Happy Archives Week, everyone! The Archivists Round Table of New York is sponsoring a series of tours, lectures, and other events to commemorate the 22nd Archives Week (October 10-16, 2010). You can find a list of events, complete with RSVP information, on the Archivists Round Table website.
Here at NYU, the University Archives will be hosting an open house from 9:30 am to 5 pm on Wednesday, October 13. You’re welcome to come by and examine our exhibit on graduation celebrations at NYU. You can browse yearbooks and look through our photograph collections. We’ll also have on display some of the artifacts from our collections, from the expected, like mascot costumes, to the unexpected, like a Revolutionary war cannonball.
If you’re unable to make it to the Archives on Wednesday, we’re also happy to answer any questions you might have about NYU history. (Email bunde@nyu.edu and see answers to your questions posted on the blog!)
