<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">The Midwest Archives Conference will hold its 2018 Annual Meeting
<b>March 21-24, 2018</b>, at the Doubletree Magnificent Mile in Chicago, Illinois. The Program Committee invites session proposals on all areas of archival practice and research and from allied fields. We are especially interested in proposals that align with
the 2018 theme, <b>“Blurring Boundaries, Crossing Lines.”</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">Chicago has historically served as a transition area between different types of boundaries: from rural, urban, and suburban landscapes, between land and lake, as a leader in the
evolution of transportation, as a home to built forms that encompass traditional and modern architecture, and even from East to West. For MAC 2018 we call archivists to a place whose official city motto itself, “city in a garden” (Urbs in Horto), invites an
exploration of contradictions and contrasts. <o:p></o:p></p>

diverse racial and ethnic communities, social movements, and confluence of local, state, and federal politics and policy. 2018 marks the 50th anniversary of the 1968 Democratic National Convention, with its riots, tear gas, and “Chicago 8” trial, and we encourage
proposals that offer new insights into protest documentation--whether in Chicago or elsewhere in the Midwest.<o:p></o:p></p>
