including librarians, archivists, museum curators, historians, students, educators, and more. The goal of this meeting will be to provide an opportunity for regular and committed attendees of MMDP to come together after a few years of virtual programming and
meet new and interested professionals to make connections. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
