The annual meeting of the Society of American Archivists, held in late summer in different cities throughout the country, includes a wide array of informative education sessions, pre-conference workshops, networking opportunities, special events, exhibits, and tours of local repositories. Geography is a principal factor in selecting potential host cities. (With a national membership, it is important for SAA to move systematically around the country, from region to region.) Other important factors include access and affordability for attendees and SAA’s commitment to diversity, social responsibility, and sustainability in all aspects of conference planning.
View the "Principles and Priorities for Continuously Improving the SAA Annual Meeting" adopted by the SAA Council in August 2013, based on the work of the 2011-2013 SAA Annual Meeting Task Force. Progress on the priorities is reported at each Council meeting.

Note: This year’s conference will be hybrid to facilitate the changing public health landscape. This will allow attendees to connect however they are most comfortable and for the Society to adjust based on CDC requirements and recommendations. Sessions will be held in virtual, in-person, or hybrid formats. More information will be provided as needed. |

79th Annual Meeting of the Society of American Archivists
With a mandate from the Council and the membership at large to experiment with new ideas, SAA is shaking things up for its 79th Annual Meeting in Cleveland! The most obvious change is the venue itself: For the first time, SAA will meet in a convention center rather than a conference hotel. Changes in the program development process also are in the works.
