Special Collections

This site will provide a single point of entry into the Special Collections and Archives for the state universities and the state of Georgia. This is a work in progress but upon completion we hope to highlight our work, our people, and the materials we curate.

FY23 Goals

Offer professional development opportunities once a semester and fill a GUGM track for special collections/archives.
Promote the committee through partnerships with local professional organizations through panels and newsletter updates.
Explore potential to integrate Primo and ArchivesSpace.
Provide best practice - how to guides to USG institutions through documents updated on the GIL Special Collections Wiki
