The Electronic Media Group (EMG) and the Book and Paper Group’s Archives Conservation Discussion Group (ACDG) are pleased to announce we will be hosting a joint session for AIC’s 46th Annual Meeting in Houston in May 2018. The program will address the preservation of physical and digital objects used in political and social demonstrations, with a focus on how the format of these objects can affect acquisition, archival processing, and researcher access. We will focus on both ephemeral, paper based, or mixed media works, as well as the digital images, video, and social media posts that are integral to contemporary protest movements. We will extend a call for presenters in September, and invite you to reach out to EMG and ACDG if you would like to suggest specific session topics related to this theme. We look forward to seeing you in Houston!
