Last week, the U.S. National Archives asked any organization with an archival collection to post a picture on social media of their archives. They asked everyone to tag the picture #ArchivesShelfie. The #shelfie is a play on the term #selfie, which, as you may know is a picture that you’ve taken of yourself.
The idea was for archives across the world to post pictures of their collections, and perhaps some of the workers who tend to these collections.
MedChi participated in this fun effort with a picture of our library, and if you look closely, you can see our former librarian, Marcia Crocker Noyes, just hovering on the right.
We were pleased to take part in this national recognition of the importance of archives, but also wanted to have a little fun with it!
