LIS Students and Adjunct Faculty Celebrated Archives month in 2024 with a number of activities. The SAA Student Chapter enjoyed a talk by Gina S. Vergara-Bautista and tour of the State Records Center, which is the State Archives’ center for active records. LIS Student Ani Kawada gave a talk at an online “AHA archives chat” recapping her poster session at the recent annual conference of the Society of American Archivists. LIS Adjunct Dawn Sueoka and CIS PhD student (and outgoing SAA President) Helen Wong Smith also gave an overview of their papers and reflection on the experience. Helen encouraged students to attend next year’s conference in Anaheim. In other events, LIS adjunct professor and State Archivist Dr. Adam Jansen led an event this past Sunday on the history of the ukulele. LIS Adjunct Professor Janel Quirante as part of ‘Ulu‘ulu work presented an archival film screening at the Hawai‘i International Film Festival. There are more activities happening in the state at the AHA page.
