This year?s fall meeting, "Bridging the Gaps," will explore ways the archival profession can reach across divisions and work with stakeholders to expand access to collections and document underrepresented communities and issues. If you come to Amherst earlier in the day, be sure to reserve a spot on one of the tours of the Yiddish Book Center. In the late 1970s, then-graduate student Aaron Lansky (the NEA Fall 2016 Meeting's plenary speaker) discovered that untold numbers of irreplaceable Yiddish books were being discarded by American-born Jews unable to read the language of their Yiddish-speaking parents and grandparents. Organizing a nationwide network of zamlers (volunteer book collectors), in 1980 Lansky launched a campaign to save the world's remaining Yiddish books and materials, founding the Yiddish Book Center. In less than four decades, Yiddish works have gone from being endangered to being one of the most thriving, open, and shared in-print literatures in the world. The Yiddish Book Center will be offering tours on Friday, October 14th, at 10:45 AM and 11:30 AM, prior to the afternoon meeting. Please reserve a spot by filling out our Tour Sign Up form ? space is limited. Take advantage of our early-bird rates and register online today.* And this year, for the first time, NEA will offer a chartered bus to provide a greener and more affordable travel option from Boston to Amherst. *Sign up for the bus when you register for the meeting*.

Working towards earning your DAS certificate? Make it a long weekend and register for SAA?s workshop on ?Privacy and Confidentiality Issues in Digital Archives ? on Thursday, October 13th at Hampshire College. Take advantage of this workshop taught by instructor Peter Hirtle who is known for his expert knowledge on addressing intellectual property issues. This course covers privacy and confidentiality legal issues specific to archives of digital material. You'll examine the intersection of (and the tension between) privacy/confidentiality, free speech and freedom to research/write, and focus on how electronic records and the digital realm have altered the scene. You'll look at privacy and confidentiality issues in the context of third party rights, donors, special situations such as medical and education records, national security legislation, and the overriding impact of the digital world. Through case studies, you will examine specific situations pertinent to the work of archivists. While participants should be familiar with basic concepts of privacy and confidentiality, a brief review of the development of these concepts will be provided to ground the discussion. The focus of the day will be on how to think through and identify options for resolving the most commonly-encountered privacy and confidentiality legal issues around electronic records.

This year's meeting, "Bridging the Gaps" will explore ways the archival profession can reach across divisions and work with stakeholders to expand access to collections and document underrepresented communities and issues. Join us in welcoming plenary speaker, Aaron Lansky. In 1980 Aaron Lansky founded the Yiddish Book Center at the age of 24 while in graduate school studying Yiddish literature. Through his studies Lansky realized that Yiddish culture and history were being lost in the United States because second and third generation immigrants could no longer reads the language. He then devoted himself to stemming the tide ? collecting these discarded texts and working to reacquaint descendants of Yiddish speakers and others with them. Since that time Aaron Lansky has earned a wealth of experience. He was awarded a MacArthur Genius Grant in 1986, and in 2005 authored the book Outwitting History: The Amazing Adventured of a Man Who Rescued a Million Yiddish Books. Today he is still the president of the Yiddish Book Center and a passionate advocate for knowledge dissemination. During the NEA Fall 2016 Meeting, Lanksy will present, ?Treasure for the Finding : The Ongoing Adventures of the Yiddish Book Center.? His talk will chronicle the Center?s latest adventures and delve into the role that archivists and librarians have in broadening the public?s understanding of our history and how that will influence our future. ********* How are you getting to Amherst for the NEA Fall 2016 Meeting?
