<p class="MsoNormal">ELECTRONIC ARCHIVES WORKSHOP OFFERED IN CORVALLIS<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Increasingly, archival records are created in electronic formats. As a result, archives of all types need to be responsible for the preservation of electronic records. A Society of American Archivists workshop Jan. 15 in Corvallis will
review the fundamental principles of archival appraisal, appraisal policies and the unique issues that need to be addressed when appraising electronic records. Case studies will highlight the practical aspects of appraisal when dealing with electronic records.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to develop an appraisal policy for their archives, include electronic records on records retention and disposal schedules, address technical issues (such as metadata, software dependence,
etc.) that arise when appraising electronic records, and appraise electronic records for archives.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">For more information and registration, visit the SAA’s <a href="http://saa.archivists.org/events/appraisal-of-electronic-records-1650/651/">

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Oregon’s Chinese history is deeply tied to local communities across the state and has been explored by a wide range of scholars, elders, and researchers. The Oregon Historical Society (OHS) would like to share that knowledge through a “Chinese
Oregon” public program series that will explore the local histories of Chinese Americans across Oregon. It is accepting applications until Dec. 15 from speakers who wish to be listed on the bureau.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This program is offered in partnership with two spring 2016 exhibitions at OHS that showcase the history of Chinese exclusion and inclusion throughout our nation’s history as well as a history of Portland’s historic Chinatowns. The exhibits
are partially supported by a grant from the Oregon Heritage Commission.<o:p></o:p></p>
