    Join us on Wednesday, October 11th at 3:30 pm eastern time for Chatting with CoSA! This is an opportunity for State Archives staff members to meet up, have discussions and share information. 

    (State Archivists - I hope you will encourage your staff to attend!)

    This month, in celebration of Archives Month, we are doing a Show and Tell - "Show us or Tell us something that excites you about working at the archives" or "Why are you eager to get up and go to work most days?"
     It could be a particular project you are working on, it could be some interesting files/photos that you discovered in your work, it could be working with particular researchers, it could be some technology that you really like using that makes your job easier or maybe you discovered a mystery! Whatever IT IS, we hope you pop on Chatting and share with us!

    Now, just attending and sharing a story will be great, but for those overachievers (and you know who you are....), consider bringing a digitization of the item as you share your excitement or if you want to home your presentation skills, create a brief (up to 4 slides) powerpoint and practice sharing your screen on a Zoom meeting! We are a no-judgement zone, so who better to practice with?

    Never been to a Chatting with CoSA? That's OK, we hope you will come. We promise that we don't bite! We might ask you to introduce yourself and tell us what position you hold at your archives.
