Abstract

The health-based uncertainty brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic of the last few years has created a period of adjustment for those who work with faculty. This has been especially true when it comes to reduced hours or outright closure of archival repositories across the globe. Faculty archivists often must remodel their approach to instruction due to the reality of limited accessibility of primary source documentation. They also have to adapt to the necessity of working with electronic resources and other alternative materials as a means of assisting professors and students via distance learning platforms. Our panel will discuss traditional approaches along with adaptive measures for assisting teaching faculty with their respective information-sharing visions in this climate of creative reference and collaborative measures.
