Practical Digital Curation Skills for Archivists in the 21st Century

Abstract

The University of Maryland's Digital Curation Innovation Center (DCIC) in the College of Information Studies promotes research and education in digital curation and fosters interdisciplinary partnerships using Big Records and archival analytics through public, industry, and government partnerships. In this session, technologists, archivists, and students from the DCIC will provide case studies involving archival records in a digital environment that focus on redlining in urban neighborhoods, the Japanese American experience in World War II internment camps, and navigating Holocaust-era digital data.
