PDA Event: Collaborative Community Voices: The Blue, Gold and Black Digital Archive

Sign up to hear about a recently launched archive documenting the black experience at the University of Pittsburgh through the years. Users contribute the content: photos, memories, and soon, audio and video. The project, “The Blue, Gold and Black Digital Archive”, is a collaboration between the University of Pittsburgh Library System and the Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. This project illustrates the concept of empowering communities to control their own narratives and build a history and context. Get lots of tips and ideas from our presenter.
