Abstract (summary)
During the Winter Semester of 2025, I completed an internship at the Royal Alberta Museum in the Military and Political History Department. I catalogued and researched several artifacts for the museum’s records. This presentation highlights the systems I used—both within the museum and online through platforms such as Newspapers.com and the Internet Archive—the insights I gained from working in a museum environment, and the artifacts I studied. My research focused on the historical and cultural significance of these items, both within Alberta and in broader Canadian and international contexts. The artifacts I examined include several World War I centennial remembrance coins and a World War II battle dress worn by a soldier who served overseas in England.
