[SOA] #ArchivesAre

[Collette McDonough]

Good afternoon SOA members,

As the chair of SOA’s Advocacy and Outreach committee, I wanted to do a little social media fun to get the word out about what archives are and what they do.  I challenge you all to take to Facebook or Twitter, if you have it and say what #ArchivesAre to you.  You might say that #ArchivesAre saving your local history or #ArchivesAre helping tell everyone’s story.  It is up to you.

Once you have your idea write your sentence on a piece of paper or use a printer if you would rather do that.  Then you can get a photo of you with the paper with the statement. Now you go to your social media of choice and make your post.  Be sure to use your hashtags.  I hope MVAR members can get this going and maybe have it spread to get the word out about archives.

Facebook post would say:

#ArchivesAre making a difference. #ArchivesMonth
