Reference Librarian Peter Catlin was set to get married in Virginia Beach in May. But the state\u2019s COVID-19 stay-at-home order canceling public gatherings put a kink in his wedding plans. Instead, after many attempts, the couple got special permission from Fredericksburg\u2019s clerk of circuit court, who married them on the sidewalk outside the city courthouse.<\/p>\n

\"UMW
UMW Libraries’ Special Collections and University Archives team is collecting and digitizing a variety of COVID-19 related materials, from diaries to photos to social media posts. Anna Billingsley, associate vice president for University Relations, submitted a screenshot of her personal blog, “Coronavirus Captivity,” chronicling her experiences working remotely and living during the pandemic.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The nuptials marked the beginning of a life together and, when Catlin typed up his story, something else \u2013 a special UMW Libraries initiative named Call to Contribute<\/em>. \u201cIt was a very cool start to the project,\u201d said Records Coordinator Sarah Appleby \u201906.<\/p>\n

The University\u2019s archiving team likes to dig deep in the past, but its mission is also to gather current experiences so future historians can better understand today. To do that, they are asking the UMW community to help create a record of what lives look like in these days of quarantine, remote learning, hand-sewn masks and Zoom meetings.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe see history happening, and we have to do something to make sure that doesn\u2019t just go away,\u201d Appleby said of the effort.<\/p>\n

The team \u2013 Carolyn Parsons \u201983, head of Special Collections and University Archives; Angie Kemp \u201911, digital resources librarian; and Appleby \u2013 will collect and digitize a variety of COVID-19 related materials, from diaries and blogs to artwork and photography. They encourage anyone affiliated with Mary Washington to contribute.<\/p>\n

An\u00a0online guide<\/a> gets ideas flowing, with suggested coronavirus-inspired contributions, like recorded audio or video stories, journals kept on paper or online, written narratives of unique moments, podcasts, works of art, textiles and even photos of quarantine baked goods.<\/p>\n

The idea of collecting and documenting personal stories and submissions emerged from the work the librarians already were doing. The Special Collections and University Archives team has been capturing records of most of the content the University creates, and since 2014, they\u2019ve been crawling UMW\u2019s web presence and archiving it, too.<\/p>\n

\"Screenshots
Screenshots from UMW Theatre’s Zoom production of “Much Ado About Nothing” were submitted to the Call to Contribute project.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

They\u2019ve built a coronavirus collection that includes University postings, videos and webpages, plus archival captures of the UMW COVID-19 FAQ and Updates page<\/a>. The assemblage is private now, but the team\u2019s mission is to soon make it public through its digital archives<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cRight now, the goal is just to collect as much as we can,\u201d Kemp said.<\/p>\n

Collections like these include huge files \u2013 like videos and photos \u2013 that eat up storage space. But, Parsons said, the digital preservation firm Preservica, which hosts UMW\u2019s library archives, has donated 250 GB of storage. \u201cSo, we don\u2019t have to be as concerned about having the space to store this content.\u201d<\/p>\n

When classes went online early this spring, UMW Libraries went to work, scanning thousands of pages for faculty and students, fielding interlibrary loan requests and sending scanned materials to help other institutions.\u00a0They consulted with students by phone, chat, email and Zoom. They set up curbside pickup of library materials, extended due dates, and waived fines and fees.<\/p>\n

And they began collecting snapshots of how these changes \u2013 and others \u2013 caused by COVID-19 are shaping the world, launching an initiative aimed to capture today and inform the future.<\/p>\n

Call to Contribute<\/em> has no set deadline, so people can create over time and give thought and perspective to their reactions to the pandemic. At the end, if they no longer want to share what they\u2019ve made, there\u2019s no commitment.<\/p>\n

\u00ad<\/p>\n

\u201cAnyone can email or call if they have questions. We all are still working remotely, and we welcome it,\u201d Parsons said of her team. \u201cIf they start something and they think, \u2018I wonder if I am on the right track?\u2019 they can check in with us.\u201d<\/p>\n
