[Arches] Re: Signing in

2018-12-12 Thread amyklebust
Hello Arches Forum Members, 
 
I recently joined the Arches Project team at the Getty Conservation 
Institute.  From what I’ve seen here already, there is a great wealth of 
knowledge-sharing and support between members.  In my role on the Arches 
Project, I’m intent to identify and share more resources and tools, so 
community members can excel in their Arches related work. 
 
What is your interest in Arches?
 
With ever greater threats to our global cultural heritage, both 
environmental and man-made, it is becoming increasingly vital to identify, 
document and manage heritage resources, in order to protect them.  Arches 
is an important part of the solution and the possibilities inspire me!   
Plus, the open-source nature of Arches makes it naturally a community-based 
platform and that’s rewarding too. 
 
Where am I working?
 
I work at the Getty Center in Los Angeles where the Getty Conservation 
Institute is located.  Specifically, I’m on the Arches Project team and 
collaborate with my colleagues on everything Arches related.  
 
What can I see out of the window?
 
My office space faces an exterior courtyard with lots of green foliage. 
 When I walk outside the building, I’m greeted by an expansive view of Los 
Angeles; from the (currently snowcapped) mountains eastward, to the 
shimmering Pacific Ocean to the west.

Welcome to the Arches community, John.  I'm about to introduce myself, as 
well, but wanted to first reach out and say thank you for introducing 
yourself.  I'm very interested to learn more about your potential use of 
Arches.  Congrats on getting your splash page up! 
Best,
Alina
