Day 12: Kubrick Archives & Bedlam Walking Tour

We started the day off with a session at the Kubrick Archives, which was very informative about several aspects of the archives, the collections, and their digital platform. Each presenter was very knowledgeable, and the entire team was very open to questions, which I greatly appreciated!! I asked some questions about their digitization and metadata processes and I was really intrigued to hear that they are concerned with the environmental impact of digitizing materials, which makes sense. I'm a little ashamed to mention that I hadn't thought of that, and will need to do some more digging into this and the balance to bringing accessibility to archives.

Afterwards, we did a walking tour of Bedlam. The topic of this walking tour was interesting, but the tour itself just wasn't as good as our first tour with this guide (again, that was a high bar to pass). The tour was still good, but I was honestly so exhausted by the end of it.
