Libraries, archives, and museums play a crucial role in helping their local populations discover and preserve the documentary heritage of their communities. CLRC\u2019s Cultural Heritage Services program works to help its members realize their full capacity to collect, preserve, and disseminate information about their unique cultural materials and records of enduring value.<\/p>\n
CLRC supports a number of \u201ccommunities of practice\u201d including the College and University Archivists Roundtable (regional) and the Special Collections Roundtable of Upstate New York. \u00a0Roundtables generally meet on a semi-annual basis and provide an opportunity for members to visit peer institutions, exchange ideas, and encourage collaboration. \u00a0\u00a0Cultural Heritage Services also support the activities of CLRC\u2019s Digitization Special Interest Group (DIG-SIG) which is made up of New York Heritage users and other digitization experts and practitioners from around the region.<\/p>\n
If you have an idea for a roundtable or special interest group that you would like to form in support of cultural heritage activities, let us know and we can provide logistical support.<\/p>\n
As part of CLRC\u2019s comprehensive continuing education calendar, CLRC\u2019s Cultural Heritage Services works to bring CLRC members the latest knowledge in areas related to library, archive, and museum cultural heritage practice. \u00a0Events include online classes \u00a0and in-person classes and workshops in areas including, but not limited to: archival processing, preservation practices, oral histories, digital curation, exhibits, and more.\u00a0 If you have talents you would like to share, or a class or workshop you would like to see offered, please contact us.<\/p>\n
