> Dear Collective members, > > From the discussion in the first meeting of the Early Modern Collective > last month, I learned that graduate students in the collective (and > possibly others as well) feel a need for some tips on how to tackle > archives. I am happy to offer a basic introduction to archival research to > members of the collective or any other interested parties. I intend to > cover how to know when you are ready to move into the archival phase of a > project as well as how to get ready to visit an archive so as to use your > time once there most efficiently. > > I have scheduled a one-hour session in the Inez Kamm Electronic Instruction > Room, Room 110 of King Library, for Wednesday April 7th, between 4 and 5 > p.m., open to all interested graduate students in the collective or > otherwise. If you plan to participate in the trip to the Newberry Library > scheduled for May 11-13th, this introductory session is mandatory. The > session should be of general use to any graduate student who might conduct > archival research, and I urge anyone who could use some help on this issue > to attend. Please feel free to circulate this announcement to any > interested parties. > > If you plan to attend, please RSVP by sending me an e-mail. I look forward > to seeing you Wednesday, April 7, 2004. > > Carla Pestana > > > > > > Carla Gardina Pestana > W. E.
