Speaker Lineup and Materials
Advocacy is becoming an important part of our profession. With a poor economy, slashed budgets, and a lack of public knowledge about archives, many from outside the profession believe that budgets can be slashed from our departments and organizations. Can it all be avoided? Is our apprehension of advocacy something we can overcome, and can advocacy be something we incorporate into our profession?
