Developing Graduate Curriculum for Digital Language Archive Management

Abstract

Our interdisciplinary team including language scholars, educators, and information professionals is developing an evidence-based practice-oriented online curriculum to train library, archives, and museums (LAM) students in the archiving, curation, and ethical dissemination of resources that provide the means to revitalize community memory and language. This 2-year project is offering professional development for 25 LAM students who will complete the new graduate course Community Language Archiving and Curation for Information Professionals. An additional estimated 100 LAM students will complete the learning modules as they are integrated into other courses. Development of the learning materials is informed by digital language archive practices and existing training materials for depositors. Resulting open-access adaptable learning resources are expected to be widely used by educators and participatory archives.
