  • Chair-Elect (1 Position) Sara Borden Sara Borden Is a Certified Archivist
    Chair-Elect (1 position) ● Sara Borden Sara Borden is a Certified Archivist with a Master of Arts degree in history with a concentration in archives from Temple University’s Center for Public History. She is a dedicated archivist, public historian, and information professional who strives to be the best possible steward to the collections in her care and offer her patrons the best possible research experience. As with many archivists, archives is Borden's second career, but she considers it her true calling. She has loved history and doing research her whole life. Borden loves helping researchers discover the document that is the key to their inquiry, or teaching students that archives are not intimidating places and that when they visit archives, they can and should touch the documents. There is nothing quite like seeing a student make a connection between an historical event and a piece of paper that was created during that time. She works on a college campus and not-so-secretly believes she has the best job at the university. Currently, Borden is the Head of Archival Collections and Services at Rowan University Archives and Special Collections (UASC), where she has held several positions since her hiring in 2016. Borden's responsibilities include overseeing the daily functions of the UASC, processing collections, creating access points, writing and editing finding aids, making decisions regarding digitization, working with on- and off-campus stakeholders, fielding researcher inquiries, and instructing students. Prior to her time at Rowan, Borden was the Digital Services Librarian at the Historical Society of Pennsylvania and also held positions at the Penn Museum and PhillyHistory.org.
