From photos to video and audio recordings, administrative records, manuscripts, yearbooks, club information, and faculty and staff bios, the Arizona State University Archives chronicle approximately 140 years of school history — and at 7,200 linear feet, cover roughly the length of 24 Frank Kush Fields. They also serve all four of ASU's campuses through material access, collaborations and outreach. “ASU’s University Archives encompasses the history of the school from the beginning, all the way back to the 1880s until now,” said Shannon Walker, university archivist with the Community-Driven Archives Initiative who currently manages both the University Archives and the archival collections at Thunderbird School of Global Management. “University Archives is vast, deep and immense. It’s also very rich and unique. "This repository reflects the lasting impact that generations of innovative ASU students, faculty and leaders have made to shape our university, our communities and the world.” Read more about University Archives in ASU News! https://lnkd.in/gXZYNrWC Arizona State University Alumni

At Arizona State University’s Indigenous-led Labriola National American Indian Data Center, the archival team is working to change long-held practices by incorporating Indigenous ways of knowing into archival applications. “When dealing with our Indigenous collections, we must incorporate our perspective into our processes through a lens of cultural inclusivity and representation,” said Vina Begay, MLIS, MBA (Diné), an assistant librarian and archivist for the ASU Library’s Labriola Center at Fletcher Library on the West Valley campus, where researchers can make appointments to view the collection. “We must acknowledge that Indigenous people are different in terms of how we look at information, how it’s assembled, and make sure that our stories are told accurately throughout history.” In this month's ASU News story, check out the Labriola National American Indian Data Center's contemporary collections, a source of Indigenous pride and resilience at ASU. https://lnkd.in/g-GjMKYW Office of American Indian Initiatives #NativeAmericanHeritageMonth
