Meeting Minutes for 2/21

Hello all,

At this meeting we discussed a few things, chiefly:

We debriefed the Rensselaer Historical Society visit for those who were unable to come along.  We visited the Hart-Cluett House and the Research library in downtown Troy, and we learned that the Historical Society loves (and wants) interns.  If anyone is looking for a place to do their archival internship(s), Rensselaer Historical Society would be a great place to do it.

We discussed plans for the Book and Bake sale at the downtown campus, which will happen sometime during the month of March.  If anyone has books to donate, please let us know here on the blog or through email at albanyscsaa@gmail.com.  More firm details on the bake sale will be available shortly, and it seems that we may do another bake sale at the uptown campus during the ASIS&T Open Source Festival - so check your email / this blog for more updates soon. 

We discussed the upcoming New York City trip for April - we had been aiming for March, but it seems more likely that we will be heading down in April.  More details to come.

That's all for now, the next meeting will be on Tuesday the 6th at 3:30 in the Draper lounge, as per usual.

Rensselaer Historical Society Visit

Hello all,

We've finalized our plans for our visit to the Rensselaer Historical Society - we'll be going on this Saturday (2/18) at 11 AM, where we will get tours of the Cluett House, the Research Library, and the Joseph Carr House.  For those who are going and those who are looking for carpool plans, watch your email inboxes (if you are interested in going and have not yet said so, email the group account at albanyscsaa@gmail.com).  

Hope to see you all there.
