MAC Speakers Bureau - Call for Proposals

MAC invites proposals for one day (4 hour maximum) workshops on all aspects of archives and archival work.

MAC will offer these workshops to sponsoring organizations or groups for a nominal fee and will compensate the speaker with an honorarium and travel reimbursement.

Proposals from non-MAC members and from professionals in allied fields are very welcome.
