We are pleased to have Kerrie Cotten Williams, Manager of Special Collections at DC Public Library, who will be discussing the newly rebranded and renovated The People's Archive at the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Library.

Digital Cultural Heritage DC is a monthly meetup group for people interested in collecting, preserving and making available digital cultural heritage information. Our meetings begin with a few short lightning talks followed by social information exchange. This is a great networking opportunity for students, as well as anyone interested in learning about digital collections in archives, museums, libraries or anywhere else. We're interested in digital content of all kinds, including film/video, still images, text, datasets, video games and pretty much anything of value in digital form. We are an open and friendly group, and welcome all comers.
