Library Juice Paper Contest Winner


NOVEMBER 1, 2014

SAADA Co-Founder, Michelle Caswell's paper, titled, “Inventing New Archival Imaginaries: Theoretical Foundations for Identity-Based Community Archives,” was named the winner of the Second Annual Library Juice Paper Contest.

Jury member Ryan Shaw wrote of Caswell’s paper:

“In her chapter Caswell moves fluidly between reporting on her experiences co-founding an identity-based community archive, explaining and showing how to use concepts from postcolonialist theory, and making a case for an archiving as activism. She does each equally well, and despite its multiple purposes the chapter is a single cohesive piece. It was also a pleasure to read: Caswell has a journalist’s flair for communicating complex ideas clearly and telling a story.”
