\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

October is Archives Month and we are excited to celebrate! According to the Society of American Archivists<\/a>, \u201cSince 2006, American Archives Month has given the profession an opportunity to tell (or remind) people that items that are important to them are being preserved, cataloged, cared for, and made accessible by archivists.\u201d I believe the work of archives and archivists is incredibly important, and I encourage you to engage with us this month (and beyond!).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>If you\u2019re interested in engaging with archivists around the country, consider participating in #AskAnArchivist Day<\/a>, which is today, October 3rd<\/sup>! #AskAnArchivist is an opportunity to speak directly with archivists from across the United States to learn about the work they do and why they do it. Head to Twitter, type in the hashtag, send a question, or just follow the conversation.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>If you\u2019re interested in learning more about the Archives & Special Collections department at Puget Sound, visit the library for pop-up exhibits this month. One of our staff members will be on the first floor of the library<\/strong> for the next four Wednesdays with some of our favorite items for you to explore.<\/p>\n
