1. Put on Your Printing Cap

Spend a morning in the Book Arts Lab. This workshop will provide participants the opportunity to set wooden type and print their own multi-colour broadside to commemorate the ACA's 50th Anniversary. You will also acquire a better appreciation for how some of the items in your own archives and special collections were produced. Instruction will be led by the lab's own Master Printer - Larry Thompson. Learn how type is set, inked and reacts to paper in the printing press. A rare opportunity to work in the busy lab on a project.

Cost includes a $10 materials fee. Limited to 15 participants

2. AI Tools for Audio Archives

Incomplete metadata is one major barrier to accessibility of audio archives, in this hands-on workshop, we will examine a suite of tools for audio metadata enrichment.

Participants should bring a laptop, and digital materials will be provided. Limit to 30 participants.

3. Indigenous and Accountable AI for the Archival Professions

The goal of this workshop is to explore how archivists can critically evaluate and incorporate new technologies like AI/ML into their work while still upholding their responsibilities as stewards of cultural memory.
