ArcGIS StoryMaps is a dynamic, user-friendly tool for creating interactive, media-rich narratives. Similar to the format of longform journalism common in venues like the New York Times and The Atlantic, StoryMaps lets you mix prose with images, videos, maps, and other dynamic storytelling features. It can be an effective way to present an argument when more than just text is required and is especially promising for communicating academic knowledge to a wider audience in an accessible and engaging way. Join Digital Dcholarship Librarian Dr. Daniel Story for a hands-on introduction. Registration is required.

Land Acknowledgement

The land on which we gather is the unceded territory of the Awaswas-speaking Uypi Tribe. The Amah Mutsun Tribal Band, comprised of the descendants of indigenous people taken to missions Santa Cruz and San Juan Bautista during Spanish colonization of the Central Coast, is today working hard to restore traditional stewardship practices on these lands and heal from historical trauma.

The land acknowledgement used at UC Santa Cruz was developed in partnership with the Amah Mutsun Tribal Band Chairman and the Amah Mutsun Relearning Program at the UCSC Arboretum.
