Newsletter of the Society of Tennessee Archivists
Tennessee Archivist is the quarterly newsletter for the Society of Tennessee Archivists. The newsletter updates members on STA business and spotlights the activities and accomplishments of Tennessee archivists and institutions. Newsletter issues are distributed to members over email and are made available as PDFs here on the Society's website.
The Tennessee Archivist relies on submissions from members and non-members alike. We want to hear from you! Consider submitting the following types of content:
News & Notes submissions are approximately 150 words in length and are brief announcements to highlight new collections, services, funded projects or personnel changes such as introducing new hires or celebrating career milestones and retirements. News & Notes articles can also announce upcoming events and special programs as well as employment opportunities.
Feature Articles are approximately 500-1000 words in length and focus on professional best practice, archivists or other cultural heritage professionals at work in Tennessee, cultural heritage resources in Tennessee, and archival outreach and engagement with the public. Photographs, figures, illustrations, and other relevant images are encouraged.
Cover Images showcase your repository's collections on the cover of Tennessee Archivist! Repositories are invited to submit seasonally relevant images from their collections (think holidays, local history anniversaries, seasonal outdoor scenes). Accepted image formats are .jpg and .tiff and should be high resolution (300 dpi or higher). Please include a brief caption and citation.
Please format article submissions as Word documents and attach relevant images (.jpg or .tiff) separately. Make sure to include your job title and repository name.
