402 - Recipes from Culinary Collections: Creative (and Tasty!) Approaches to Outreach

Food production, cooking, and eating are social activities that go beyond the kitchen, engaging a variety of disciplines and making culinary collections a natural tool for archival outreach. The speakers talk about developing food collection outreach and reference opportunities. Whether it's tasting events, historic recipes in the classroom, blogging the cooking process, or digitizing collections, panelists share what they've learned and how their advice can be adapted to other outreach endeavors.
