Lunch & Learn: The Dept. of Buildings' Architectural Plans Collection at the Municipal Archives

The New York City Department of Records and Information Services (DORIS) invites you to the launch of our Lunch and Learn Series. Join us each month for an intimate conversation with agency staff and special guests on the collections of the Municipal Archives and Library, as well as the history of New York City.

In March 2021, archivists Amy Stecher and Alexandra Hilton explored the challenges and complexities behind cataloging, preserving, and digitizing the Municipal Archives' collection of the Department of Buildings' architectural plans and drawings.
