SUMMARY:Church Stewardship Initiative Summer Camp
DESCRIPTION:This was the last of five class sessions. \nThe Congregational Library & Archives was excited to host our first annual CSI Summer Camp in 2025. \nArchivists Zachary Bodnar and Billy McCarthy led attendees through the steps needed to successfully begin archiving their church’s important records and valuable memories. This multi-session online program\, hosted on Zoom\, provided guidance and instruction on the archival process\, keeping in mind attendees’ specific collections and locations. \nOver the course of five sessions\, Zachary and Billy provided hands-on and in-depth instruction about how to begin tackling the seemingly mountainous task of properly archiving a church’s collection. Between sessions\, there were exercises to complete at attendees’ own pace that reinforced lessons and set them up for the next session. Sessions included time for instructions\, group discussions\, and Q&A. Sessions were focused on the following four topics: gathering your collection\, identifying materials\, organizing records\, and crafting finding aids. \nThis program was part of our Church Stewardship Initiative (CSI). Find the videos of past workshops and free resources on our CSI webpage. \n  \nSPEAKER BIOS \nZachary Bodnar graduated with a Masters of Library and Information Science from Simmons University\, with a concentration in archives management\, in 2018.
