Brabant Historical Information Center Leverages Social Media and Crowdsourcing

Christian van der Ven, archivist of the Brabant Historical Information Center, addressed a captive audience during a presentation in Second Life as part of the Archivists of SL March 6th Meeting.  He described how the Center, a large regional archives in the southern part of the Netherlands, uses social media to enhance its image and reach out to patrons.  Christian had many ideas to share with those wondering how to use social media to benefit their own organizations.
