Welcome to the ArchivesEducate blog! I am co-Director of Digital Scholarship Services in the Skillman Library at Lafayette College in Easton, PA. Previously, I was a Mellon/Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR) Postdoctoral Fellow in Digital Scholarship in the Department of Research and Digital Scholarship at the Smith Library Center at Southwestern University in Georgetown, Texas. I started this blog in Spring 2014 to document and reflect upon my projects having to do with archives and undergraduate education. In the process of relating some of my adventures in archives and education, I hope to gain insights that will improve my own work in academic libraries and contribute to the broadening body of theory on the roles archives can play in higher education.
I’m very excited about the capacity of archives—both digital and material—to enhance undergraduate education. Are you interested in archives and education? Let’s talk! E-mail me at nunesc@lafayette.edu, follow me on Twitter @CharlotteLNunes, or contact me here:
