October is American Archives Month
Archives Month is a collaborative effort by archivists around the nation to highlight the importance of historical records. Governor Edmund G. Brown, Jr. has issued a proclamation making October 2012 “Archives Month” in California. More information about Archives Month events in California is available on the California Archives Month website.
Special Collections is celebrating Archives Month by participating in the second annual Sacramento Archives Crawl on Saturday, October 6. We’ll have a table at the California State Library. Stop by and say hello!
Here is a preview of one of the images that we will have on display at the Archives Crawl.
