Building on BloggERS' Script It! Series, this beginner-friendly session focuses on applied methods and resources for expanding technical literacy across the archives profession. Panelists share their stories about how they developed skills related to scripting languages and computational thinking, identified accessible resources, and created opportunities for learning at their institutions and beyond. Attendees will be encouraged to participate in discussion of what additional resources are needed to increase technical literacy among archivists.
