 Hello, my name is Jerry Simmons. I am one of two full-time National Archives staff who work as external agency liaisons to SNACC, which stands for Social Networks and Archival Context. My colleague, Deena Herbert, and I participated in a number of SNACC programs, but our primary focus in the cooperative is the administration of the SNACC School. You can find SNACC using any web browser and there's no need for a login or a password. The landing page is a tumbling ever-changing mosaic of sample name descriptions you can explore in SNACC. The search bar at the top of the landing page provides you a flexible keyword search and you can filter your search results to return three specific types of entity descriptions, organization names, person names, or family names. SNACC officially began its work as a fully-formed archival authority cooperative in fall 2015, though work on the concept, the data model, and the search engine started in 2010 at the Institute for Advanced Technology in the Humanities with support from the California Digital Library. The endowment for the humanities and the Institute for Museum and Library Services granted support for this research and development phase. It was during this phase that the National Archives staff began participating as expert advisors for name authority cataloging and cooperative description. The new cooperative phase is supported by the Andrew Mellon Foundation. 2016 saw the stand-up of SNACC's formal governance and administration guided by four working groups and a formal training program, which is administered by the National Archives and Records Administration. As of January 2023, SNACC has 450 registered editor partners, including some as far away as Brazil, Argentina, and India, who cooperatively developed descriptions for creators of a wide variety of archival and cultural heritage collections found in repositories around the world. Editors can create authority records for persons like voting rights activist, Fannie Lou Hamer. Searching for Hamer in SNACC starts with a simple keyword search of her name or parts of her name. Hamer's SNACC record includes a high-level biography note, then a list of related archival resources with a contextual descriptor. Hamer is designated as the creator of her own papers held at the Amistad Research Center at Tulane University, but is referenced as a subject in the McKissick papers at UNC Chapel Hill Wilson Library. Clicking on the title links takes you to the finding aids for those materials. SNACC also links to other types of archival descriptions. Hamer's SNACC record includes a link to a catalog description found in the National Archives Catalog it links to records described in the NARA catalog, but records themselves are held at the Lyndon B. Johnson Presidential Library. Another unique feature of SNACC is describing contextual relationships between other entities described in SNACC. In this example, we see Hamer's SNACC record linked to the descriptions of two organizations which she helped found in the 1960s. Clicking on those names moves you to descriptions for those organizations found in SNACC.
