What does it take to preserve the nation's story, one government record at a time? 

Bridget Finn, RPL Marketing Director, sat down with Jill Zawacki, Supervisory Archivist at the Barack Obama Presidential Library, U.S. National Archives, for a conversation about what archivists really do, the records that shape our history, and how everyday people can access them. 

Jill talks about her path into archival work, what makes the Obama Presidential Library the first fully digital presidential library in the country, and the

"Your Government, Your Records" workshop series she and her team are bringing to the Rockford Public Library this fall in celebration of America's 250th year.

This one is for anyone who's ever wondered what's actually inside the National Archives, and how to go exploring for themselves.
