It’s not too late to contribute to Archeota, an informal publication being compiled by SJSU SAASC.

I’ve decided to extend the submission deadline to the end of the weekend, April 19. Special accommodations (to extend further) can be made if you e-mail me!

We have received a great selection of articles so far, as well as an archives-themed word search puzzle! Thank you to everyone who has submitted material to date.

Does anyone have anything else they would like to contribute? A musing on something that’s been happening in the news perhaps? A link to your blog? An archives-themed cartoon? Insight from an internship experience? etc. etc. etc.

Please contact me as soon as possible via Canvas or at catherinefolnovic@gmail.com.

Submission requirements can be found at the following link: http://sjsusaasc.weebly.com/archeota.html.

No one as of yet has signed up to contribute content or proposed content for Archeota! The proposal deadline was April 1, but let’s just forget about that!

If you would like to contribute, but don’t have a lot of time…what about an archives-themed word search or crossword puzzle?

Do you have coursework that you can adapt or build from to suit this platform?

Do you want to promote your blog or work you're doing outside of school? What about providing us with a link or QR code to that?

Archeota can be what we want it to be…so if you have an idea, our ears are wide open!!!

Please contact me as soon as possible via Canvas or at catherinefolnovic@gmail.com. I would like to have all content in hand by April 17! That gives you almost 2 weeks!

It’s not too late to participate!
