Candles Burning At Both Ends: Experiences Of Dual-Role Archivist/Librarians, Robert Perret

Journal of Western Archives

Workers with both archivist and librarian responsibilities were surveyed to examine their experience of this dual role. Their self-identity, training, responsibilities, and place of work are explored, as well as their feeling of being prepared for a dual role. This study finds that while the preponderance of respondents feel prepared, more than half regularly engage in more than 40 job activities spanning both archives and libraries. The diversity of responsibilities, combined with the tension between two distinct professions, places significant strain on those in a dual role. At the same time, respondents felt isolated and underappreciated, and expressed feelings of …

Neon In Nevada: A Case Study In Statewide Collaboration, Amy J. Hunsaker, Cory Lampert, Teresa Auch Schultz

Journal of Western Archives

Neon signs in Nevada capture the spirit of glitzy gambling meccas, boom and bust towns, and frontier settlements that dot the vast geography of this unique state. However, many iconic and hidden signs are in constant danger of disappearing as populations shift and the elements naturally break down the physical aspects of the signs. In addition, neon signs in Reno and remote, Northern Nevada locales have remained relatively undiscovered. UNLV has had a long history of documenting the art of neon and has partnered with the Neon Museum in Las Vegas to preserve this rapidly disappearing cultural heritage. Digital Humanities …

Archives’ Open Storage, Christian D. Nøkkentved

Archives Exhibits

What a strange exhibit! There appears to be neither rhyme nor reason to what is here. Well, truth be told, this is not an exhibit. What you see here are artifacts or documents or images that are not part of an exhibit, and what is here may change periodically. Since we cannot show it all, Open Storage is another way of sharing more of the things in our physical collections. We have modelled this approach from other museums and archives.
