This session will describe the technologies and the partnerships that make these projects possible, including the University of Windsor, the University of Alberta for digitizing and transcribing materials from the Holodomor Research and Education Consortium, and an initiative with Library and Archives Canada and other memory organizations to save and preserve the physical collections of newspapers in a time of mass closures.

Join library directors from across the country to hear about lessons learned during the pandemic and discuss the ways in which priorities have shifted. How has restricted in-person access to content changed the ways we think about access to research and what initiatives or priorities have arisen as a result? As needs shift, how can CRKN best support members during this time? The panel will include a facilitated discussion with opportunities for Q&A.
