Jim Gerencser is the Associate Dean for Archives and Special Collections at Dickinson College in Carlisle, PA and also Director of the Carlisle Indian School Digital Resource Center. He holds an MLS from the University of Pittsburgh and an MA in History from Shippensburg University. With 25 years of experience managing digital projects at Dickinson, Jim is focused on making primary sources easily discoverable and accessible to wide audiences while still maintaining their original context. He is strongly committed to public service and outreach, and he has been particularly active over the past ten years with sharing information about the importance of the Carlisle Indian School records from the U.S. National Archives and elsewhere that had, for nearly a hundred years, been largely hidden and difficult to access.
