Jennifer Day

Jennifer Day joined the SAR staff in June 2005. She came to the organization with a background in museum registration and completed a graduate degree in museum studies at the University of Florida. As SAR’s head registrar, she administers SAR’s collection management database at its Indian Arts Research Center (IARC), and also handles documentation of acquisitions and object loans, rights and reproduction for images of collection items, and manages several volunteers and interns. She has a passion for organizing collection data and making it easily accessible for staff and researchers; her mantra is that “A database is only as good as the information it contains.” Jennifer particularly enjoys working with members of Native American communities to improve documentation of items housed in the IARC collection and also designing database reports.
