The East Asian Studies Program and International Studies Program offered a special intersession course January 17-19 called Spotlight on Archives – Research Tools and Careers. Students in the class learned about archival research, about the many archives online, on campus, and in the region, and about careers as research librarians and archivists. We would like to thank Yunshan Ye and Gabrielle Dean of JHU’s Sheridan Libraries, the staff of the Maryland State Archives, and the archive specialists at the Asian Reading Room at the Library of Congress for sharing their valuable time and expertise with us!
