Please join us for a graduate workshop sponsored by University Libraries in partnership with the English Graduate Student Organization and the Medieval and Renaissance Graduate Student Association. Led by Thompson Special Collections Instructional Services Specialist Eileen A. Horansky, this workshop will offer graduate students from all disciplines an introduction to archives and archival research methods.
Topics covered will include finding and accessing archives and special collections, analyzing archival sources, and formulating research questions and projects using archival materials.
No prior experience using special collections or archives is necessary, and graduate students from all departments are welcome! The workshop will be followed by a reception with light refreshments and further conversation.
