Greetings! And welcome to the home page of the Visual Materials (VM) Section of the Society of American Archivists. The VM Section provides a forum for archivists and others working with visual collections to discuss issues related to the archiving of visual materials of all stripes.

    We have included on these pages links to the Society of American Archivists (SAA) and the Visual Materials Cataloging and Access Roundtable (VMCAR). Other links will take you to information about joining this Section and subscribing to the VM list. You may also view a list of our current officers and membership. As an extra bonus, you may also download PDF files of past issues of Views, the Section newsletter.
