Anatolia College Archives holds archival material from the operational time in Thessaloniki and Merzifon , Turkey. Last June they received a request from the US Consulate General Thessaloniki. The intention was to create an exhibtion to honor the Greek War of Independenence (1821-2021) and to celebrate the long term alliance between Greece and US. The challenge was to find these elements and deliver to the curator appropriate stories accompanied by photos and artifacts. This presentation describes the coordinated actions of the AC Archives for the delivery of the project. Sharing the content with the community via OMEKA is following.
