Professor Jeannette Bastian will participate in a panel discussion in October 6, “Setting Directions for Libraries and Archives in the Digital Age.” The panel is part of Recording Lives, a free public forum organized by the Boston University Center for the Humanities, October 5-7, 2017.

From the Recording Lives website: “The role of libraries and archives today is one of the most pressing concerns of citizens around the world and a central issue for the formation of democratic societies. By deciding what records we keep and how we keep them, we make decisions that touch the core of who we are as individuals, cultures, and nations. Recording Lives brings together specialists from academia, public libraries, governmental agencies, and philanthropic and commercial archives to explore common ideas about value across the institutional boundaries that too often separate us.”
