Archives seeks stories for COVID-19 YSU Experience collection

As part of its effort to document how COVID-19 has impacted the YSU community, University Archives is asking students, faculty and staff to share their stories about the pandemic. 

The stories will be part of the Archives’ COVID-19 YSU Experience collection that also includes websites, emails, graphics and social media posts regarding the university’s pandemic response. Stories, as well as photos and videos, can be shared at this link.

“We are looking for short stories about how COVID-19 has affected you,” said Cassie Nespor, curator of University Archives. “It could be about a significant event, surprising experience, loss, change, etc.”

Once the stories are reviewed and processed by the University Archives, they will be available in the Digital.Maag online archives and be made available to future researchers.
