In April of 2020, The Smithsonian's National Museum of American History launched a task force charged with collecting and documenting the impact of COVID-19 on history and culture. At a moment's notice they had to formulate a collecting strategy and begin the acquisition of objects and archives that documented a crisis that even now, almost 2 years later, continues to unfold. On this #ARCSchat, we spoke with our guests Alexandra Lord and Joshua Gorman, the chair of the Division of Medicine and Science and Head of Collections Management respectively, about how they devised and implemented a collections strategy, and went about the task of documenting a crisis while in the crisis. As the collection of objects relating to COVID-19 is ongoing and the institution wishes to cast a wide net, if you feel like you have a relevant artifact please contact the museum at inquiry@si.edu.

"How do you pivot on a dime in today's world when the technology has locked you into silos, so you can't get the data out around it?" Neal Bilow, CEO and Founder of Terentia, sees a new future for collections and digital asset management systems that moves away from bespoke development, leverages data, and drives audience engagement. Plus, commentary by Catherine Devine.

Peter Homulos recounts how he went from being a geology student to a director of the National Inventory Programme, the precursor of the Canadian Heritage Information Network (CHIN), all before he was 30 years old. The mandate of the Programme was to maintain the records of Canada's cultural properties, but it evolved into creating a computerized inventory of collections to facilitate the sharing of information. It was also responsible for research and development on information management, collections documentation standards and collections management systems. From a modern perspective, it is difficult to convey how groundbreaking and even controversial this initiative was.

Over the past year of Cultivating Place interviews, we’ve heard references to the importance of the Smithsonian Gardens archives for the research of such historians, writers and gardeners as Marta McDowell while writing "All the President’s Gardens", as Andrea Wulf while she was writing "Founding Gardeners" and "The Invention of Nature", and as Ryder Ziebarth as she was working to document and preserve 5 generations of her family working and gardening on one piece of land. This past May, the Smithsonian Gardens – a branch of the Smithsonian Institution dedicated to enriching the Smithsonian experience through exceptional gardens, horticultural exhibits, collections, and education – launched a new exhibition entitled “Cultivating America’s Gardens”. The exhibition will be on view at the National Museum of American History through August of 2018. In honor of our country’s birthday this week, and the hand-in-hand role gardens play in the history of our country – this week on Cultivating Place I’m pleased to be joined by the curator of the exhibit, Kelly Crawford. In the second half of today’s program we’ll be joined by Cindy Brown, Manager of Education and Collections Management at Smithsonian Gardens to learn more about the gardens and their on-going mission and activities. Happy birthday to the United States of America – seems to me an exhibit celebrating our shared garden history is a perfect gift.

The National Trust recently completed a two-year process of revising its collections management policy to create parity between historic buildings, landscapes, and objects that it stewards for the benefit of the public and to use disposition proceeds to provide direct care across all aspects of this collection. This session will explore the process of developing and vetting these changes, along with the implication of these changes from the perspectives of the National Trust’s Legal Division and Technical Services, as well as a Site Director. Chair: Katherine Malone-France, Director of Outreach, Education, and Support, National Trust for Historic Preservation, Washington, DC; Tom Mayes, Deputy General Counsel, National Trust for Historic Preservation, Washington, DC; David Young, Executive Director, Cliveden, Philadelphia, PA.
