🏛️ Archive Access Strategy Session

Critical Thinking & Problem Solving Submission Required

With support from local library or archives staff, students examine finding aids, digital collections, source labels, and citation information connected to the Gold Rush, Dust Bowl, Bracero Program, Great Migration, and Old Hollywood. Students test search terms and refine their plan for which collections may best answer their question. They add archive targets and citation details to their notebooks so research can begin efficiently next phase.
