No Registration Necessary! How to have the best Archives Crawl on October 13


On October 13, we will host guests from all over the Bay Area, excited to see collections related to the theme, Immigration and Indigenous Voices of California. So how can you best enjoy the Crawl. Here are some tips for your day:

  • Take Public Transportation from location to location, or walk if you can. The night before, review travel and public transportation routes to ensure you get to each location, or the one of  your choice on time!
  • Talk to the archivists and librarians! Each one has immense expertise and wants to share facts and histories behind what they are showing.
  • Ask an archivist what you can hold, take photos of, or just look at. Some of the collections at the Crawl will be fragile, and many will be 50, 100, or 100+ years old. Remember to be careful with what you do touch since we want to ensure that guests years from now can experience these powerful items.
  • Have fun!
