Patricia Price, a Digital Curation Services volunteer since 2011, was given the Ribble Award for outstanding volunteer service at a reception yesterday. Patricia was the Library’s first remote volunteer, contributing authorized names to the UVa Visual History collection. After moving to Charlottesville from Washington, D.C., she continues to contribute to the work of the department by identifying images from U.Va. Special Collections used in a faculty member’s popular website on the Atlantic slave trade, as patrons frequently request copies of these images.
