Society of American Archivists U of M Student Chapter

The student chapter of the Society of American Archivists is happy to host special guest speaker Edie Rosenfeld on Thursday, February 19th, at 7:30pm in the Ehrlicher Room (411 West Hall). Edie, along with moderator Dr. David Wallace of the School of Information, will discuss the way in which documents have helped her to reconnect with her past as a child survivor of the Holocaust. The powerful body of documents she has brought together tell the two stories of both the means by which the Holocaust was enabled and of how Edie's and many other families responded. The many roles of records in our lives, from implementers of policy, to evidence of historical processes, and finally to the development of personal and collective memory, will be the centerpiece of the discussion.

This is a public lecture and all are welcome to attend and bring guests. Please join us in welcoming Edie!
