Students will explore government and private archival records, newspapers, mail-order catalogues, film, photographs, court documents, memoirs, maps, material culture, and oral history as well as secondary sources. We will approach this work by considering the role of archivists, those who care for, collect, and manage primary sources and historians and we will also the role of curators, knowledge, and memory keepers.
