(During Denver Public Library's unprecedented, indefinite closure due to COVID-19, WHG librarians, archivists, catalogers, and shelvers are faced with a monumental task: maintain library operations without the actual library. We're up to the task and wanted to share our work stories with our WHG customers in an ongoing series of blogs. The second installment comes from Archivist Librarian Laura Ruttum Senturia, who describes what archivists do from home (hint: it’s similar to what they do in the office!) What do archivists do when working from home? Good question! It’s perhaps better to start with what they do in normal times when they’re working onsite at their library or archives. Interestingly, the answers to these two questions can be very similar! As archivists out and about in the world, we often encounter confusion about our job and what it entails. Casual questions from new acquaintances are often cause for stumped expressions, as most are expecting a familiar answer (for example, teacher, doctor, engineer, etc.). Thus, many folks mishear my reply, and I have been mistaken for an activist or an architect. My personal favorite was the perplexed query, “do you do church records?” I replied that we do often hold those, as well as the records of private families and businesses. The speaker and I looked at each other in silent puzzlement until he asked me if I had gone to music school. Aha! He assumed I had said “organist!”
