Thanks, Marty!

As we begin a new academic year, the Center for Public History looks forward to a yet another year of transformation and collaborative history making.  Most notably, we bid farewell to Dr. Martin Levitt, who has led our widely-renowned archives training program since 1995.  Marty, who will be staying on as librarian of the American Philosophical Society, has trained hundreds of archivists, many of whom work in Philadelphia and many more beyond.  His imprint on our program will be deep and lasting.  We encourage those of you who have studied with Marty to share news of your accomplishments and to extend thanks for his many years of service.  Although the archives program will be on hiatus during the current academic year, we look forward to introducing its next phase, which should be in place by fall 2014.
