Dear All:
You're invited to register for and spread the word about an upcoming workshop at Rutgers-Camden, Introduction to Online Historic Sources.
INTRODUCTION TO ONLINE HISTORIC SOURCES
FOR PRESERVATION RESEARCH
1.5-Day Workshop with Nicole Belolan
Saturday, October 12, 9:00AM-4:00PM,
and Saturday, October 19, 9:00AM-1:00PM
at Rutgers University in Camden, NJ
1 CEU
$65 (includes lunch on day 1)
About: Are you telling the same old story at your small museum or historic site? Maybe you worry about whether it’s even historically accurate! Join us to learn how to improve your interpretive materials, grant application, or even your rack card so you can start connecting with visitors in new ways using historical materials. In this workshop, you will learn up-to-date techniques for researching historic buildings and preserving and interpreting their histories for today’s audiences using digitized historic sources such as guidebooks, trade catalogues, maps, and museum artifacts. This workshop will cover how to get beyond Wikipedia to find sources but will also provide a primer on historical thinking.
Who should register:
This workshop will not focus on genealogical research but instead will help participants ask and answer good questions about everyday life and people at their historic site or home.
