    You’re invited to the ACA Hashtag Party! On the last Thursday of every month, the ACA Social Media Team organizes a hashtag party, which takes place virtually on Facebook, Instagram, and X (formerly Twitter). There is a different theme for each month, which we announce on social media and Arcan-l in advance. On the day of the party, you can share materials in your collections related to that theme, tag us and use the hashtag, and we’ll re-share your post. The goal of the parties is to engage more with institutions across Canada, see what kinds of materials other institutions have, and promote weird, fun, and interesting items from your own collections.

    The ACA Hashtag Party will take a pause in December to give our volunteers a break, but we’re excited to host you again in the new year! The first few dates and themes for 2024 ACA Hashtag Parties will be as follows:

    • January 25, 2024: ArchivesScience
    • February 29, 2024: ArchivesBlackHistory
    • March 28, 2024: ArchivesFeast
    • April 25, 2024: ArchivesVolunteers

    Keep an eye on future issues of Scope and Content and on all our social media accounts to learn more about what we’re interested in for each of these themes! 

    For any questions, or if you have initiatives that you would like the ACA Hashtag Party to support, please email us at communications@archivists.ca.

    • Social Media

    On the last Thursday of every month, the ACA Social Media Team organizes a hashtag party, which takes place virtually on Facebook, Instagram, X (formerly Twitter), and Threads. There is a different theme for each month, which we announce on social media, in our e-newsletter Scope and Content<https://archivists.ca/Scope-and-Content-Monthly-ACA-Newsletter>, and on Arcan-L in advance. On the day of the party, you can share materials in your collections related to that theme, tag us and use the hashtag, and we’ll re-share your post. The goal of the parties is to promote engagement amongst archival institutions across Canada, help archivists learn more about what their colleagues are doing, and bring attention to all the weird, fun, and interesting items we work with every day.

    This month, the theme is #ArchivesFeast and the party will take place on March 28, 2024. Share your favourite materials from your collections that represent food in some way, including photographs, recipes and cookbooks, and anything else that might fit! And don't forget to tag us and use the hashtag so we can re-share your posts.

    Open Refine Workshop

    Digitization can provide far greater access to archival documents, but their discoverability via full text searches may be hampered by error-laden optical character recognition (OCR). Correcting them manually is unrealistically time-consuming but there are tools that can help! In this workshop, we will use OpenRefine – a spreadsheet-like software often used for creating or editing metadata – to accelerate the finding and correction of spelling errors introduced through the OCR process.

    Bio

    Devon Mordell has a Master of Archival Studies from the University of British Columbia and currently works as an educational developer at McMaster University after several years in digital archiving roles. She teaches workshops on digital scholarship topics such as online exhibit creation and computational text analysis, and has presented internationally on archives as data.
