UMBC Special Collections' Maryland Tradition Archive Presents its Annual Digitization Day

The MTA is hosting its second annual Digitization Day for the Ashley Minner collection. Ashley's collection focuses on the Lumbee migration from North Carolina to Baltimore during the mid-twentieth century. This community archiving event is an opportunity for the community to share their history, preserve their materials, and help grow the American Indian archive in the Baltimore region. This year we will have six scanning stations for photos and documents which will capture metadata and recorded individual short stories, a longer format oral history station, as well as an information station for the collection and for MARMIA's AV digitization.

The event will be held off campus on:

Saturday, April 26 11:30am-3PM

South Broadway Baptist Church

211 S. Broadway, Baltimore MD 21231

This event is free and open to the public. For more information or to inquire about volunteering, please contact Mark Breeding.
