Phew, I did my first ever guided tour on our archives on friday and now when it's sunday I can say I'm pretty much recovered 😂 Students are a lot easier group to lead than a group of mostly pensioners!

Honored to meet the USS STERETT Association historian today. Grateful for the chance to help preserve the ship’s legacy—and touched to receive a challenge coin in thanks. It’s humbling to support those who served.

Show & tell before a 2 day workshop on managing architecture, design, & construction archives. Red Rocks plans from 1940 including Creation Rock, Ship Rock, & a faint 1936 drawing for padded canvas seats in the amphitheater. #archivistlife #archives #redrocks
Microfilms, ancient technique really but very much still in use. Today at work checking out microfilmed 19th century construction drawings. Being an archivist is really quite nice on days like this!

I’ve spent the morning happily measuring the width and height of pieces of correspondence. #ArchivistLife
