Fortepan Iowa, how Iowa photos are being archived, is a presentation on the archival platform Fortepan.us. Bettina Fabos and Dan Henderson will do the presentation. Bettina Fabos is Professor of Interactive Digital Studies and Visual Communication at the University of Northern Iowa. She is an award-winning producer of digital history projects and researches noncommercial digital archiving, the Creative Commons movement, and interactive timelines. Fabos states that the Fortepan archive aims to represent the personal, whimsical, poetic, significant, and accidental artistic moments of everyday Iowa life and tell a rich story of the state’s overlooked diversity and complexity. You can attend this program on January 10th at 2 PM at The Washington Public Library.
