May 21, 10-11 a.m., Documenting the Disaster: Facilitating Community-Driven Archiving in the Wake of Hurricane Helene. Katherine Calhoun Cutshall, Manager of Buncombe County Special Collections (and SHRAB member), will discuss both process and content for a project to collect community memories after Hurricane Helene, Come Hell or Highwater. Library staff created a repository for digital materials in direct response to ways they witnessed community members documenting experiences. With crowdsourcing as a central methodology for the creation of this archive, the main goal is to offer permanence to the fleeting moments the community has captured on digital media. Register.
