 With graduation around the corner, MARA students are leaving their students routines of the past three or more years and moving into professional lives.  Now is the perfect time to engage in professional development organizations and activities if you have not already done so.

The Society of American Archivists offers vibrant development and volunteer opportunities through its 46 individual Affinity Sections covering a variety of archival subjects. If you haven’t selected an affinity section, please do so today and enjoy greater in-depth discussions. There’s something for everyone!

The Archivists and Archives of Color Section of the Society of American Archivists is updating its membership directory. The directory assists with networking, finding new collaborators, and selection for workshop and presentation leaders. They are inviting all interested parties to fill out the form here. The form will be open until this Sunday, May 14, 2023. SAA membership is not required to be included in the directory.
