The Society of American Archivist advocates that "May Day" can be used "as a time when archivists and other cultural heritage professionals take personal and professional responsibility for doing something simple—something that can be accomplished in a day but that can have a significant impact on an individual’s or a repository’s ability to respond."
In response to this call, there will be an L.A. as Subject Town Hall meeting on Friday, May 1 from 2-4pm via Zoom. This Town Hall is intended to bring LAAS members together and discuss how we have been effected by the pandemic.
Part of the meeting will also include a brief review of two documents, the COVID-19 Community Resources for Archivists created by the Los Angeles Archive Collective and the Archive at Home document created by the Accessibility & Disability Section of the Society of American Archivists.
Meeting connection information and password will be sent to those who RSVP.
