[Neasis-l] NEA's Spring Workshops

[NEA Announcements]

New England Archivists is offering two workshops at the Spring 2017 Meeting
in Hyannis, MA, which will give archivists in our region a leg-up on
project management and grant funding.

*LEAD BY EXAMPLE: The Fundamentals of Project Management for Archivists*

The greatest asses in leading teams and managing archival projects are
knowing how to navigate the tools, techniques, and relationships. Anyone
who has ever worked on a team should consider registering for Fundamentals
of Project Management for Archivists
<https://newenglandarchivists.org/Current-Workshops#w1>.

Part of the SAA Arrangement & Description Certificate Program, this
workshop will give you an understanding of the project life cycle, from
initiation to completion, including addressing which tools and techniques
are best, exploring how to evaluate outcomes and disseminate project
information, and demonstrating methods for achieving success.

*Bonus: SAA will provide a $25 discount off the non-member rate for NEA
members. Log on to the NEA website to view the promotional code on the
member portal.*

*FIND MORE MONEY: Funding for Archives Work*

What can you do to find funding for your repository? To create more access
to collections? To better serve your researchers? To preserve historical
documents? Grants. Anyone who has an idea for a project to better serve
their collections should consider registering for Funding for Archives Work
<https://newenglandarchivists.org/Current-Workshops#w2>.

Kathleen Williams, Director of the National Historical Publication &
Records Commission Description, will provide expert tips and tricks on
applying for a grant from the NHPRC, specifically the Access to Historical
Records <https://www.archives.gov/nhprc/announcement/access.html> grant
