Archival Finding Aid for the Records of the Maine Folklife Center

An archival finding aid for the records of the Maine Folklife Center held by Fogler Library has recently been added to the online archival content management tool ArchivesSpace. The records contain details of the founding of the Center on campus by Sandy Ives, various grants around preserving and providing access to archival collections, the Center’s many exhibits and publications, and the involvement of Center staff in organizing the annual folk festivals in Bangor.
