When museums and volunteer-run cultural heritage organizations close, how can academic research libraries support their valuable collection and community stewardship processes? This panel will discuss the challenges to library conventions and librarian expertise encountered in the case of one museum-library merger. We invite audience members to question and brainstorm along with us about what it means to create a national model of museum-library mergers and advance national dialogs on the subject.

Multigenerational Volunteers: Using Technology to Engage a Diverse DemographicJessica Belcoure Marcetti
Museums commonly employ diverse groups of local volunteers and match them, based on their interests and skills to specific tasks and projects throughout the institution. But can we engage volunteers of varying ages, skills, and geographic locations with the same project? Yes! Using technology, tailored training sessions, and some creativity, it’s possible for retirees and university students to collaborate on the same collections-based project while meeting the individual needs of our volunteers and our collection.
Moving Forward: Reflecting on the Past to Better Understand Ways to Create Me...West Muse
Museums have an opportunity to acknowledge and address practices and issues that, in the past and present, have led to mistrust and hesitancy for indigenous groups to work with institutions. But, how do we get there? How does a museum build and repair relationships with indigenous communities to create meaningful and impactful partnerships, exhibitions and programs? In this session, three speakers present their thesis research on cultural competency, community engagement, and repatriation as well as offer suggestions for ways to build and repair relationships.

5 Reasons Archives are an Untapped Goldmine for Wikipedians and WikimediansSara Snyder
See video of the original presentation at http://youtu.be/PptQZmf4FKs
Archival repositories are places which hold the original records created by people and organizations--paper, audiovisual, and electronic--preserving and providing access the primary sources that form the backbone of historical research. They are also a treasure trove of unique, reliable sources and free media for Wikipedia editors. Moreover, professional archivists often share the same driving passion that motivates so many volunteer editors: the desire to organize valuable information and make it accessible to all.
This presentation will introduce you to the basics of archival records and research (often a somewhat mysterious process to the uninitiated) and lay out the top 5 reasons why partnerships with archival repositories are of mutual benefit to Wikimedians and archivists alike.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. What are archives and what do they
do?
• Archives are the protectors of records of enduring value and human
experience that can include: letters, documents, photographs, sound
recordings, and digitally born materials.
• Professional Archivists preserve, organize and describe archival
materials to create greater access to these materials.
• This access proves that events really happened. This documentary
evidence moves us towards a more complete understanding of
historical events and towards a more complete historical record. This
helps us to better understand and learn from our past.
3. The archives exist to
support the mission of
their parent institution.
Archives are used by those both
inside and outside of an
institution.
