You asked and we listened! In response to member requests for more training that addresses archives management practice, SAA is offering the first Archives Managers Unconference in Austin. Join your colleagues for an invigorating day of presentations, discussions, and debate about the many facets of management.


The day will include three interrelated conversations:

  • Lightning talks on a variety of subjects, presented by your management peers. Topics will include: financial management/budgeting, personnel management, team-building, soft skills, advocacy, IT and facilities, grants, DEI, and more. (Propose a lightning talk here, before May 31: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/LV53YVD
  • A “pitch and two feet” style unconference to generate discussion, networking, and insight into the challenges and complexities of archives management.
  • An "SAA Think Tank" discussion about new and emerging continuing education needs for archives managers. Help us plan development of a new Management Track that best addresses your needs.
