CSU Special Collections and Archives Community of Practice

The California State University Archives Roundtable was established in 2016 by Berlin Loa and Pam Kruger as a community of practice to bridge the CSU campus archives and archivists, continuing the CSU-wide efforts that began in 1996. The mission of the CSU Archives Roundtable is to:

Promote the CSU Archives and Special Collections Departments
Establish an information exchange network for archivists in the CSU
Increase public awareness of CSU Archives and Special Collections
Create a professional collective archival voice within the CSU system
Create space for conversation about archives and special collections within the CSU
