During the first half of the briefing, Academy for Creative Media Founder Chris Lee and Head Archivist Janel Quirante will present an overview of the Giugni Moving Image Archive, its opening at the University of Hawaii West Oahu Campus this summer, and long-term plans. They will also feature video clips from the Archives collection.
During the second half of the briefing, State Archivist Susan Shaner and Hawaii State Digital Archives consultant Adam Jansen will discuss their progress in developing the Hawaii State Digital Archives Development Plan, and highlight the potential for enhanced accessibility, transparency, accountability and business/societal continuity.
