On October 21, 2023, a distinguished group of scholars came to visit our Chinatown Heritage Center. The visitors were faculty members from archival studies programs in universities across the United States. They are collaborating on a national scale to apply for a larger community archives internship program to be funded by Carnegie Mellon and IMLS.
They were interesting in finding out about how our past UCLA interns have benefited from their internships. They also wanted to view our facilities and to examine our collection of artifacts.
We served them afternoon tea and also showed them our online digital archives.
