Project Archivists Panel Details

Description:  The discussion will center around (no surprise here) project archivists -- who they are, who hires them, where the funding comes from, and the idea of moving on from project positions to longer term jobs.  A SNAP steering committee member will introduce the panel's focus and serve as moderator.  After panelists very briefly introduce themselves, we will open up the floor to questions.

1) Christie Peterson, Records Management Archivist, Johns Hopkins University (former serial PA)

2) Anita Weber, Vice President and Director of Information Resources Management Services, History Associates (hiring committee member)

3) Jillian Cuellar, UCLA Special Collections (former serial PA)
