We welcome news items about repositories in the SSA region, and about the professional accomplishments of SSA members wherever they reside.


Past issues can be viewed by everyone, while only members can review to two most recent issues.

Submission guidelines are as follows:

  • Repository news items should be about significant projects, donations or purchases, exhibitions, grants received, and similar activities.
  • Submissions should be written in a style consistent with inclusion in a professional publication.
  • Suggested word count is 150-600 words.
  • Images, sent as separate files, with captions and attributions, are encouraged.
