See below for a message from NWA President, Erin Passehl Stoddart

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Whenever I think of the past, it brings back so many memories. -- Steven Wright

40 years’ worth of memories in the case of the Northwest Archivists! NWA's upcoming anniversary in 2017 offers the perfect opportunity to collect, present and celebrate forty years of professional advocacy, advancement, and camaraderie! To this end, the NWA40 committee has been formed and is busily working on behalf of the membership-at-large preparing for the celebrations scheduled during 2017. (More details at end of message.) 

The NWA40 Committee is asking members to get meta and turn our collective professional skills inward to mark this auspicious event.  Whether you’ve been an NWA member for 40 years or joined last month, you have NWA-related stories and photographs and we want you to share them!

  • Do you have a funny or poignant story?
  • How has NWA influenced your professional life?
  • Do you have observations about how the membership and organization has changed over the years?
  • What are your hopes for the future of NWA?
  • Do you have photos to share?

Please send your stories, comments, and remembrances to Diana Banning, diana.banning@portlandoregon.govPlease include in the subject line: NWA40.  The NWA40 Committee will compile and publish the collection on NWA’s website.  

The committee is also looking for volunteers who are interested in compiling a written history – let Mary McRobinson know if you feel the call.  And if you are in contact with any of our retired members who could offer additional perspectives and stories, please contact Diana Banning. 

Sneak preview of coming celebratory attractions: 

  • Reception at NWA/CIMA meeting, May 2017
  • Specially designed NWA40 swag for purchase
  • Reception at SAA annual meeting, July 2017
  • Brief history of NWA compiled for website (including founding date, list of past Board members, meeting locations, programs, photos, etc.)

Please direct general questions/suggestions to Mary McRobinson, NWA40 Chair, mmcrobin@willamette.edu

Erin Passehl Stoddart, NWA President
