Greetings from New Orleans!
The Amistad Research Center hosted a tour of fifty freshmen
students from New Orleans Center for Creative Arts (NOCCA). The students toured
the new exhibition gallery, talked to the reference archivist about the
Center's holdings, and walked upstairs to the processing area to view documents
from our ongoing projects. I showed the students two program
booklets from plays that were produced by O'Neal and mentioned various types of
correspondence included in his collection. The students were intrigued
and asked about saving emails and what steps are taken to save and to provide
access to audio visual materials.
I also contributed to Amistad’s e-newsletter by writing an
article about O’Neal and I continued to process O’Neal’s papers. The papers are
almost complete (Yay!).
Please view my blog for more updates.
Peace!
Felicia
