Spring 2010 Meeting
March 3-5, 2010
Sandhills Community College, Pinehurst, North Carolina

Update!

We are pleased to announce that Dennis Meissner will open our spring meeting with a keynote speech. Mr. Meissner is the Head of Collections Management at the Minnesota Historical Society, and one of the authors of the 2005 article "More Product, Less Process: Revamping Traditional Archival Processing." We are excited to be hosting a speaker who has done so much to provoke a rethinking of fundamental archival processes. We hope that Mr. Meissner's speech will provoke conversations across North Carolina about backlogs and priorities and how we all handle the day-to-day challenges of caring for ever-growing collections. SNCA is also hosting a workshop in cooperation with the Society of American Archivists to compliment Mr. Meissner's speech.
