SUMMARY:Short Papers: Occupation and Extraction
DESCRIPTION:SHORT PAPERS: THEME – OCCUPATION AND EXTRACTION\nChair: Kirsten Wright \nRegister in advance for this meeting: \nhttps://unimelb.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZModOGsqTooH9GnOXJHbo5v-HcNLcmspJJo \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. \nPapers:\nYarning about Indigenous Cultural Safety in Australian Libraries and Archives \nSpeakers:\nKirsten Thorpe\, Monash University (PhD\, Faculty of IT) Jumbunna Institute for Indigenous Education & Research\, University of Technology Sydney \nAbstract: This paper discusses the methods utilised in the doctoral research project which focuses on Indigenous Archiving and Cultural Safety in Australian libraries and archives. Broadly\, the doctoral research investigates the ways in which libraries and archives can negatively impact Indigenous peoples wellbeing through a failure of producing information and recordkeeping systems that can best meet their cultural and community needs. It explores the ways in which colonial legacies continue to be embedded within the structures of libraries and archives and how these legacies impact the cultural safety of Indigenous peoples in Australia. This includes examining the potential for information and records to cause harm to those people who work\, access and use the records. Whether within physical spaces\, systems\, policies\, or procedures that support library and archive structures. This presentation will discuss the research design utilised in the doctoral studies to support respectful engagement with Indigenous research and engagement with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander research topics. This includes utilising yarning (Bessarab\, 2012) as a method\, the use of autoethnography (Bainbridge\, 2007) for deep reflection as well as drawing on Archibald’s (2008) Indigenous Storywork principles as method to present relational research. \nSettler Colonialism and Archives in Rhodesia: A Case Study of the Delineation Reports  \nSpeakers:\nChido Muchemwa\, Faculty of Information\, University of Toronto (Ph.D. student) \nAbstract: In 1980\, Zimbabwe gained independence from Britain and inherited the National Archives of Zimbabwe. The colonial legacies within the Zimbabwean archives have primarily been studied through the postcolonial lens. However\, in the paper\, I make an argument for the utility of examining the archive through the settler colonial lens. Settler colonial studies as a field has primarily interested itself in the histories of North America and Australasia at the expense of the settler colonial projects of 20th century Africa. However\, the failure of these settler projects does not minimize their lasting influence on the archives of postcolonial states like Kenya and Zimbabwe. I use delineation reports\, chieftaincy records collected by colonial officials\, as a case study for the enduring legacies of settler colonial archives. While delineation reports are often cited in scholarship\, there have been few studies of them as an object. There is no published history of their creation\, use or how they are treated in the archive. In this paper\, I argue that it is important to contextualize the delineation reports as an administrative tool of the settler state to understand what the treatment of these records in the Rhodesian archives tells us about the archives role in supporting the settler state. This article uses delineation reports as a case study for how the Rhodesian settlers used the archives to solidify their story of the natives\, a story that would justify taking the land. \nAboriginal Archives in Italy – a space for reciprocal collaboration \nSpeaker:\nMonica Galassi – PhD Candidate in International Studies\, Faculty of Arts and Social Science at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS)/Research Associate at the Indigenous Archives and Data Stewardship Hub at the Jumbunna Institute for Indigenous Education and Research at UTS. \nAbstract: Displaced archives related to Aboriginal histories and experiences are widely disseminated across Europe\, often unknown to communities and researchers alike. These archives are entangled in multiple layers of power and interests\, therefore there is no agreed framework to manage their access and return to their communities of origin. But what happens when understudied Aboriginal displaced archives in Italy are redirected to their communities of origin? This paper introduces doctoral research about Aboriginal records displaced in Italian institutions. Through mapping and translating a sample of these records and facilitate access to their communities of origin\, I reflect on the opportunities that this space provides. This analysis draws deeply from Indigenous Decolonising methodologies and approaches\, as well as my own standpoint of being an Italian woman living and working with Aboriginal Peoples and Communities. I argue that opening spaces for dialogue between institutions and communities provides invaluable opportunities to support Aboriginal data sovereignty\, increase knowledge of colonial history and contribute to the international theoretical debate around displaced archives. \n  \nWill this session be recorded for the AERI2021 YouTube channel?

SUMMARY:Short Papers: Digital Information Management
DESCRIPTION:SHORT PAPERS: THEME – DIGITAL INFORMATION MANAGEMENT\nChair: Allison Tyler \nRegister in advance for this meeting: \nhttps://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJwvdeGtqT8sEtRJcfZ3ZLs1xa2FcHqQd21C \n  \nPapers:\nLinked Open Data – a means of future-proofing the archives sector? \nSpeaker:\nAshleigh Hawkins\, University of Liverpool \nAccessibility details:\nZoom auto live captioning \nAbstract:\nSince 2010\, the archives sector has been engaged in incorporating Linked Data\, and subsequently Linked Open Data (LD)\, into description and other archival processes. Evidence of the benefits of LD for archives was provided by early projects\, including the LOCAH and Linking Lives projects undertaken by the UK’s Archives Hub\, a trio of projects at King’s College London\, and the Australian Architectural Practice in Post-war Queensland project. The evidence base has subsequently been expanded by more recent projects\, such as the ongoing Linked Jazz project at the Pratt Institute School of Library Information Science\, and the Finnish BiographySampo and WarSampo projects. Over the past few years\, investment in LD has also been seen both at the national and international level with many cross-sectoral collaborations\, including the Towards a National Collections Project\, publication of the Europeana Linked Open Data service\, OCLC’s Project Passage\, and the ICA’s development of the Records in Contexts Ontology. While there has been some scholarly examination (Gracy\, 2015; Niu\, 2016)\, individual case studies dominate the discussion\, sharing tried and tested processes and methods essential to help implementers plan future projects and inform the development of best practices and guidelines. However\, in focusing on the ‘what’ and ‘how’ of LD\, few have interrogated why archives should invest\, and what the benefits might be. Drawing on PhD research examining current perceptions of the benefits of LD for archives\, this work in progress paper considers the extent to which LD may offer a means of future-proofing the archives sector. In questioning the extent to which it improves archival processes\, the potential it offers for expanding the profile of the GLAM sector\, and examining evidence of increased sustainability of archival metadata\, I will present one of the key arguments for archival investment in LD. \nWill this session be recorded for the AERI2021 Youtube channel? Yes \n  \nAnalysis on the Content and Characteristics of Information Dissemination of China Archives WeChat Official Account \nSpeakers:\nFeng Jiaqi and Jia Xiaoshuang\, Renmin University of China \nAbstract:\nThe WeChat official accounts are application accounts that a developer or merchant applies for on the WeChat official platform. Through the official accounts\, relevant subjects can realize all-round communication and interaction with specific groups\, including text\, pictures\, voice\, and video. Since its launch in 2012\, the WeChat official account has gradually become an important platform for various organizations to display themselves\, enhance their influence\, and facilitate users with its unique advantages. The archives are also actively relying on WeChat official accounts to carry out publicity services. As of January 11\, 2021\, there are a total of 487 archive WeChat official accounts in effective operation in China\, which act as propagandists of archives knowledge\, broadcasters of archives work and communicators with profile users. Under the above background\, the authors adopt the content analysis method and select the top ten WeChat official accounts ranking in the 2020 China’s Archive WeChat Official Account List as the statistical samples\, after basic analysis\, we further extract the information content released by the sample\, then perform content coding and visual analysis according to the six indicators of title\, keywords\, number of views\, number of views\, release form\, and language style. Finally\, we summarize the content and form\, characteristics and highlights of Chinese archive information dissemination. We hope that this research can provide some suggestions for the optimization and improvement of China’s archives WeChat official accounts. \n  \nResearch on the Problems Existing in the Transfer of College Student Archives in China \nSpeakers:\nWang Zican\, School of Information Resources Management\, Renmin University of China \nAbstract:\nPersonnel archive is an important feature of China’s personnel management system. It is the evidence of personal identity\, educational background and qualifications. Generally speaking\, student archives are an important part of personnel archives. According to the principle of ” personnel archives transfer with people “\, the archives of college graduates should be transferred from the school to their work units. At this time\, student archives will officially become personnel archives\, which are closely related to personal wages\, social labor security and membership credentials. Therefore\, it is particularly important to realize the smooth transition from student archives to personnel archives\, which is the purpose of transferring student archives. The smooth transmission of student archives is not only related to the change of their study and work identity\, but also related to the integrity and continuity of their personnel archives. However\, there are many chaotic phenomena such as abandonment\, loss and damage of student archives in reality\, which leads to the continuous fracture of their personnel archives\, which not only affects the integrity of their personnel archives\, but also has a negative impact on their future work and life. This paper attempts to explore the reasons behind the chaos\, and puts forward the corresponding solutions. Specifically\, this paper will conduct a questionnaire survey and interviews with the groups who have handled the business of student archive transfer. The survey found that the confounding of transfer methods\, the opacity of transfer process and the lack of understanding of the importance of archives transmission are the three major reasons that affect the quality of transfer of student archives. Based on this\, this paper believes that standardizing the transfer methods and implementation rules\, promoting the transparency of the transfer process and enhancing the propaganda of the importance of archives transmission are the solutions to related problems. \nWill this session be recorded for the AERI2021 Youtube channel: No

SUMMARY:Roundtable: Anti-Racist Pedagogy in Archives and Digital Curation
DESCRIPTION:ROUNDTABLE: Anti-Racist Pedagogy in Archives and Digital Curation\nPlease register for this session using this link: \nhttps://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJYldemqrTkpGdC8Mt3_WLiGoowqOofc-gG8 \nPanelists:\n\nSumayya Ahmed (Simmons University)\nPatricia Garcia (University of Michigan)\nAngela P. Murillo (Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis)\n\nModerator:\n\nRicardo L. Punzalan (University of Michigan)\n\nAbstract:\nRecent events such as the disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on minoritized communities\, ongoing police brutality and anti-Black violence\, and the increasing number of Asian hate crimes have produced calls for action across communities. Although they are recent\, these events represent historical patterns of racial violence and systemic racism within the U.S. that require an honest reckoning with our past and present\, including the legacies we continue to uphold in our academic institutions. If we\, as archival educators and researchers\, are to contribute to a more just future\, we must examine the University’s complicity in upholding structural racism and the role of educators in achieving racial justice by developing an anti-racist pedagogy. In this roundtable discussion\, speakers and participants will answer the question: What constitutes anti-racist pedagogy(ies) in archives and digital curation? The speakers will answer this question and share their own approaches and practice. This session aims to unpack what anti-racist pedagogy in archives and digital curation actually means not only in terms of what we teach\, but also how we teach. It will also address the challenges (untenured) faculty of color face when trying implement anti-racist pedagogies including reprisals or being ignored. This roundtable discussion will have an interactive approach and will invite participants to join in the conversation. We view the roundtable as an opportunity to continue to conversations that began during the July 2020 Community Forum and hope to further flesh out ideas that were surfaced through the conversation into an actionable vision of how anti-racist pedagogies could and should shape how we teach archives and digital curation at our institutions. \nWill this session be recorded for the AERI2021 Youtube channel? Yes.

SUMMARY:Workshop: Teaching Towards Rights in Records
DESCRIPTION:WORKSHOP: Teaching Towards Rights in Records\nRegister in advance for this meeting: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZIlf-CppjoqH9BHRjcGaWCkqjdf1T0DMg92  \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. \nSpeakers:\n\nKathy Carbone (UCLA)\nJames Lowry (CUNY)\n\nAccessibility details:\nZoom auto captioning \nAbstract:\nThe Rights in Records Framework asserts individual and community rights to\, in and through records. Derived from the work of the Refugee Rights in Records (R3) Initiative at UCLA and CUNY\, and close collaboration and conversation with international organizations and initiatives such as the Rights in Records by Design project at Monash University\, the framework is a charter that sets out twenty rights based in broader human rights frameworks. In this workshop\, participants will be invited to explore what it would mean to prepare archivists and various stakeholders for records work that asserts and defends these rights. What are the pedagogical methods\, content and audiences that should be engaged to affect the design and operation of record-keeping environments that serve those marginalized in current systems? \nWill this session be recorded for the AERI2021 Youtube channel? No
