“The Convention this year will bring in professionals from the state history community to focus on such topics as how museums are exploring new ways to interpret history to the public, how history teachers are using new techniques educate their students, how archeologists are digging up new evidence, how archivists are using the Internet to make documents accessible, and how historic sites are finding new ways to attract tourists.” said Mappen, executive director of the New Jersey Historical Commission, “Attendees at the Convention will come away with practical knowledge they can bring back to their organizations.”
