Dorpinghaus recently attended the highly competitive 2014 Archives Leadership
Institute (ALI) in Iowa. The institute is a weeklong immersion program offering
the opportunity for emerging archival
leaders to explore archival theories,
skills, and practice. Participants engage in workshops focusing on current and
vital strategies for archival leadership, such as new leadership thinking and
methods, strategies for born digital resources, project management, human
resource development, and advocacy and outreach.
Participants were selected for the 2014 ALI institute based on their
exceptional leadership skills and potential, their ability to influence change,
a strong commitment to the archival profession, demonstrated professional
organizational involvement and service, a collaborative and innovative spirit,
and representation and/or support of diversity within the profession. Previous
UK Libraries ALI cohort members include Deirdre Scaggs, Associate Dean, Special
Collections Research Center, and Dr. Doug Boyd, Director, Louie B. Nunn Center
for Oral History. To learn more about ALI visit http://www.archivesleadershipinstitute.org.
