Brown Bag Session
We will be holding a lunch-time brown bag session with Sarah Severson. Second-year students had the pleasure of attending Sarah’s presentation last year regarding her work with the CBC Television Archives. Sarah has recently begun a new position with the multi-media company Moment Factory (check out the website http://www.momentfactory.com/en; this is the job your inner hipster has always wanted) and will speak about her role and the challenges of retaining and ensuring access to non-print archival materials (and about working for a company that creates concert installations for the Arcade Fire, M.I.A. and Celine Dion).
