UBC student receives Holmes Travel Award from the Society of American Archivists

Weimei Pan, a first-year doctoral student in the Archives Studies PhD Program at UBC, is the 2013 recipient of the Oliver Wendell Holmes Travel Award from the Society of American Archivists (SAA). The award will be presented at a ceremony during the Council of State Archivists and SAA Joint Annual Meeting in New Orleans in August. The award enables overseas archivists who are already in the U.S. or Canada for training to augment their experience by traveling to the annual meeting.

UBC students Georgia Barlaoura and Lara Mancuso were the 2012 recipients of this award.
