[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Call for speakers - ArchivesSpace 6th Annual Member Forum

[Jessica Crouch]

Dear ArchivesSpace Members,



ArchivesSpace will be holding its sixth Annual Member Forum virtually on August 
3-7, 2020, from 12pm-3pm ET each day via Zoom.  Just as in previous years, this 
free event is a chance for ArchivesSpace members to come together to highlight 
the work they are doing in ArchivesSpace, show off new plugins or tools they’ve 
developed, and attend workshops and trainings on a variety of topics. As with 
our previous Annual Member Forums, it is being held in conjunction with the 
Society of American Archivists annual meeting, but it is not part of SAA and 
does not require registration for the SAA Annual Meeting.



Presentations and breakout discussions will be held on August 3-4, 2020, and 
all individuals from ArchivesSpace member institutions are welcome to attend 
some or all of the sessions on these days.  Small workshops covering specific 
elements of the ArchivesSpace application will be offered August 5-7, 2020.  
These workshops will be limited to 25 participants per workshop.



The event wiki and registrations will be made available soon, but for now we 
are looking for presenters and discussion leaders for August 3-4, 2020. 
Anything related to ArchivesSpace is fair game. We are specifically interested 
in presentations or topics related to managing others using ArchivesSpace, how 
you or your institution have adapted your use of ArchivesSpace during COVID-19, 
and any plugin or tool you’ve developed that you’d like to show off.

There is a short Google form for proposals available at 
https://forms.gle/DsZNqe2cANy5mS4S7. Proposals will be reviewed on a rolling 
basis. The last day that proposals will be accepted is July 15, 2020, and all 
notifications will be made by July 22, 2020.

If you have any questions or other suggestions at this point, please feel free 
to email Jessica at 
jessica.cro...@lyrasis.org.

We look forward to “seeing” you soon!

Subject: Archival Collecting Pandemic Survey Extension

Hello everyone,

First, I wanted to say thank you for those that have taken our survey to 
determine archival collecting practices during the COVID-19 Pandemic thus far.  
We have received many responses to better understand and support the needs of 
our community.

Since the input we have received has been valuable we have decided to extend 
our survey deadline to June 26, 2020 at 5:00 Eastern time.

Please discuss any special needs or concerns related to the pandemic with your 
colleagues before completing the survey, as we hope to have one survey 
representing a single institution, and not multiple surveys from a single site. 
The survey is available at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/3T5V5JN. We estimate 
the survey will take 15 minutes to complete.

Confidentiality: Your responses are being collected and analyzed by LYRASIS, an 
independent, nonprofit, membership organization serving archives, libraries, 
and museums. They will be kept confidential. Only aggregate results will be 
reported. Please answer these questions to help us learn about your current 
practices and needs. To submit your answers, you must click on the "Submit Your 
Responses" button at the end of the survey form.

If you have any questions, please contact me at 
katy.klettlin...@lyrasis.org.

Thank you for your support of this important project; we look forward to 
sharing what we discover with the archival community.

Many thanks,

Katy
