I'm used to doing #InfoLit #LibraryOrientation type classes/sessions, but I'm working on my first #Archives session... I'm going to be focused on #teaching #undergrads about our #digitization process but it makes me wonder:

2) What do you wish you had found out sooner about using an #archive and/or digitization?
