She said one of her goals is to make archival materials more accessible to the community. The archives are currently housed in the basement of the Osterlin Building. While materials will remain there, renovations are underway to convert former offices on the second floor into space better suited to research.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;ll be more research-friendly,&#8221; said Seman, a 2010 graduate of Traverse City Central High School. She earned a master&#8217;s degree in library and information science with a concentration in archives from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee in 2020.<\/p>\n<p>Historic photographs and yearbooks are among the most popular items in the NMC Archives, Seman said.
