FREE training - American Theatre Archive Project

We hope this is of interest to archivists and librarians in the arts: The American Theatre Archive Project (ATAP) is providing a free training session at the Boston Public Library on Saturday, May 4th, 2013, 9am to 1pm. 

*About ATAP*
An initiative of the American Society for Theatre Research, the ATAP supports theatre makers in archiving records of their work for the benefit of artists, scholars, patrons, and the public. It is a grassroots network of professional and student archivists, practitioners, and scholars dedicated to preserving the legacy of the American theatre by developing archival resources for theatre companies, helping to preserve theatre history that has yet to be written. Find out more on ATAP here:
