Digital Exhibits
CAHAAS follows a post-custodial model, borrowing community records (i.e. photos, videos, objects, stories, etc.) to digitize, describe, and share them online, rather than keeping physical copies. We follow preservation best practices that involves several thoughtful and deliberate steps, both technical and ethical, to ensure that the voices, stories, and memories shared are respected, protected, and accessible for future generations. At this time, only creative interpretations of our community records are being shared publicly.
