Participant-Driven: RBMS 2019: Engaging the Community on Next Year’s Conference

In anticipation of next year’s RBMS conference in Baltimore – centering on the theme of special collections amidst climate change – we will engage attendees of this year’s RBMS in structured whole-group activities to surface and share what is percolating through your work, your professional networks, and your minds. What aspects of climate change and sustainability are special collections professionals responsible for? What aspects are already impacting our work? How are we responding, already? How might we respond more effectively going forward? We look forward to collecting the wisdom and questions shared and bringing these into our 2019 Conference Program Planning Committee’s work, and are grateful for the opportunity to engage with the community-at-large in developing the threads of next year’s conference.
