What is 23 Things for Archivists?
We’re glad you asked! Following are the original 23 “Things”—and now many more Things—for you to explore, experiment with, and learn about the new and emerging technologies that are changing how information is used and created on the Internet today. Some of the “Things” might be useful in your work, some for sharing work (perhaps you serve on a committee), or for promoting your archives.
This is a self-discovery program that allows participants to take control of their own learning. You can work at home or at work, alone or in a group, at your own pace as you have time. You are encouraged to share your discoveries and insights with others through your blog postings.
Read each Thing in its entirety so you understand the activities. Feel free to skip a Thing if you are already familiar with it (but maybe blog about your experiences anyway). If you have used the WordPress site in the past, be aware that some of the number on what used to be labeled Intermediate Things have changed.
Now jump in and have fun learning!
