October is American Archives Month and it is a perfect time to (re)introduce our collections, our teams, and highlight the day-to-day of archival work. Over the next two weeks colleagues from across Collections will share their insights, collections, and updates!

In partnership with Society of American Archivists Committee on Public Awareness, ASU Library will participate in #AskAnArchivist Day 2021 on October 13. This fun, Twitter-wide event gathers archivists from across the world to answer questions about day-to-day activities, educational backgrounds, favorite records, and pointers for new- or early career archivists.

If you’ve ever wondered about ASU Library rare and special collections, join us on the blog through October 12 and on October 13 check-in with the Library on Twitter using the #AskAnArchivist hashtag and join us throughout the day as we chat about some great topics!
