COVID-19 PANDEMIC
By mid-March of 2020, the spread of the novel Coronavirus caused the governors of Indiana, Illinois, and Kentucky to individually issue stay-at-home or shelter-in-place order urging its residents to remain at home and avoid large social gatherings.
​
Many cultural organizations are closed as a result. Inevitably, some organizations had to furlough their staff, while others continued to work from home.
​
All in-person meetings were canceled including the 7th Annual Meeting at Willard Library, the Wonderful World of Digitization, and the field trip to Grundswald Gallery at IU Bloomington.
​
All events in 2020-2021 were held virtually.
​
"The Huddle" Series
"The Huddle" Series offered a space on Zoom for members to "huddle" and tackle unusual situations that have arisen as a result of the pandemic. Members are invited to make topic suggestions and participate in the discussion every other month on the second Tuesday at noon.
