Cleveland Archival Roundtable (CAR) meeting report

The members of the Cleveland Archival Roundtable visited the Cuyahoga County Archives tonight and were given a tour of the facility, which is housed in a historic mansion on Franklin Avenue, by its director, Judy Cetina. Representatives of many local corporate and historical archival organizations attended, including folks from the City of Cleveland, the Cleveland Clinic, the Western Reserve Historical Society, the Aurora Historical Society, the Cleveland Public Library, the Shaker Hts. Public Library, the United Church of Christ and Cleveland State University, as well as a number of students and part-time archivists for smaller groups. CAR holds meetings every two or three months, to which anyone is welcome who is interested in archiving company documents, or historical materials or just in learning more about the subject.
