Views, the official publication of the Visual Materials Section (VMS) of the Society of American Archivists, is seeking submissions! We especially encourage submissions on our current theme of community. The SAA community gathered virtually last month. Do you have reflections on these virtual gatherings and connecting with the archives community this way? How have interactions with your user community changed in the last year? How has your work community changed? Do you have interesting collections in your archives reflecting ideas about community? How have acquisition or descriptive practices changed at your archives to better reflect your community?We welcome submissions on any visual materials topic of your choice, too, if you have acquisitions, case studies, commentaries, exhibits, ideas, news, or projects to share. More guidelines are available on our website. Submissions from students and early-career professionals are highly encouraged. There are no hard deadlines--feel free to send whenever you can.Please contact us at saavms.blog@gmail.com with comments or questions. We look forward to hearing from you!
