This year, Archives Month in Virginia will celebrate all of the ways that archival and manuscript collections assist, educate, enrich, and enliven the lives of Virginians (and many others). Share an image or images from your collection that highlight that theme. What image or document best captures your institution? How about a document that was invaluable to a researcher or perhaps your most requested record. Maybe you can show off a wonderful but seldom seen item. However you choose to interpret it, show off how your archival institution is for Virginians! The Virginia Archives Month Committee is hoping for record-setting participation this year, so please join in and submit your images! You may upload your images to the Virginia Archives Month Group<https://www.flickr.com/groups/2687190@N21/> on Flickr or submit images to Vince Brooks, [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> or Margaret Kidd, [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> by July 25th. Image specifications: 300 pixels per inch (ppi) at 100%.
