Join AAFCS Archivist Sarah Keen on a journey through the AHEA-AAFCS Historical Collection…via the Internet! In the short videos listed below, Sarah displays selected items that she has processed at the Carl A. Kroch Library at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York.

We hope to update these videos periodically, so that members can see some of the progress being made toward preserving our past for future generations. Also, AAFCS wishes to extend special thanks to Cornell University Libraries for producing these highly informative videos!
