That continuing conversation has led to a series of initiatives that we will undertake in the coming years, including an Inclusive Examples project. For this important project, ArchivesSpace is delighted to be working with Brittany Newberry of Georgia State University to update the examples provided in its workshop materials and test databases. We want the examples to be more representative of the diverse institutions that use ArchivesSpace. We are interested in adding examples from the ArchivesSpace user community. Below is a list of record types and collection types for which we are looking. In addition, we have created an agreement to provide information and expectations for how the data shared will be used. If you are interested in participating, please email a signed agreement and the records you'd like to share in one of the formats listed. Email ArchivesSpaceHome at lyrasis.org by Wednesday, March 23 and we will forward your submission to Brittany Newberry for review. Feel free to contact us with any questions you may have.

This quarter we experimented with holding two sessions to allow time for both the usual business and for a deeper discussion of certain key topics: continuing to advance DEIA work, ArchivesSpace implementation at non-U.S. based institutions, and how the board can continue to mature in service of our community. Nominating Committee Chair Nick Zmijewski presented a slate for this year?s Committee. It was accepted and we are happy to report that the following individuals will serve on the committee doing important work to identify and encourage diverse voices to consider serving on the Governance Board. The call for nominations will go out in the spring, but please feel free to contact them if you have suggestions or are interested in ArchivesSpace service. * Very Large: Julia Tanenbaum, University of Wisconsin * Large: Aaisha Haykal, College of Charleston * Medium: Tiffany Cole, James Madison University * Small: Corinne Chatnik, New York State Archives * Very Small: Sara Butterfass Schliep, Folger Shakespeare Library * Randy Kuehn and Dan Michelson, the TAC and UAC chairs, will be members of the committee by virtue of their positions. The Board continued its conversations about how it can advance diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility goals for ArchivesSpace. The operations update highlighted progress with the Diversity Partnership program. Board members reported on their participation at the first Diversity partners meeting and heard an update about the Inclusive Examples Project work that is now underway. We discussed possibilities for more DEIA-centered work based on the community-supported initiatives in the near future. We also reviewed the changes in ArchivesSpace staffing and are delighted that Casey Rhodes, the new Developer, is starting on March 7th. We reviewed the continued excellent work of the Technical and User Advisory Councils and thank the members for their dedicated participation. Following up on a survey of archival educators that it undertook in the fall, the ad hoc Education Committee presented recommendations for ways to strengthen the Educational Membership program. Approved elements include creating a sandbox for education programs and developing a separate, more student friendly ?Getting Started? web resource. More information about these changes will be shared soon. Board member Natalie Adams shared observations from the University of Cambridge?s experience of implementing ArchivesSpace outside the us. She offered thoughts on some ways ArchivesSpace could demonstrate its commitment to the growing community of non-U.S. users. The board undertook an activity from the It Takes A Village (ITAV) Sustainability Planning toolkitaround representative governance and identified areas where procedures could be codified or communication improved. The board will undertake additional activities from the toolkit in future meetings. The board is always eager to hear from the ArchivesSpace community. We have started planning this year?s Board Community Session designed to foster more direct engagement and communication between board and community members. Look for a separate announcement with date and time once those are finalized. We hope you can attend! I am very happy to report that the ArchivesSpace membership continues to be strong, even in the face of the challenging circumstances of the last few years. The Board extends thanks to all of you for your continuing support and ongoing contributions to the community we have all created. We welcome your communications and comments at any time.

Community contribution requested in the ArchivesSpace Inclusive Examples Project The deadline for participation in the ArchivesSpace Inclusive Examples Project has been extended to Friday, April 1, 2022. We are particularly interested in receiving examples of the record types indicated with an asterisk in the list below. In the wake of the George Floyd and Breonna Taylor murders, and in the spirit of protest that followed, the ArchivesSpace community began a conversation about what it could do to promote diversity and inclusion while combating systemic racism in our field. That continuing conversation has led to a series of initiatives that we will undertake in the coming years, including an Inclusive Examples project. For this important project, ArchivesSpace is delighted to be working with Brittany Newberry of Georgia State University to update the examples provided in its workshop materials and test databases. We want the examples to be more representative of the diverse institutions that use ArchivesSpace. We are interested in adding examples from the ArchivesSpace user community. Below is a list of record types and collection types for which we are looking. In addition, we have created an agreement to provide information and expectations for how the data shared will be used. If you are interested in participating, please email a signed agreement and the records you'd like to share in one of the formats listed. Email ArchivesSpaceHome at lyrasis.org by Wednesday, March 23 [deadline extended to Friday, April 1] and we will forward your submission to Brittany Newberry for review. Feel free to contact us with any questions you may have. Possible Examples: Types of Records: * Resource records (EAD, MarcXML, CSV, Excel spreadsheet) * Accessions (MarcXML, Excel spreadsheet, CSV) * * Digital Objects (CSV, Excel Spreadsheet) * Subjects and Agents (MarcXML, Excel spreadsheet, CSV, EAC-CPF) Types of Institutions/Collections * Academic/University records * * Corporate/Business archives * * Government * Religious * * Non-profit/community * Minority-serving * Museum * Public Library * Historical Society * BIPOC * LGBTQ+ * Music/arts * Data should be in a format that can easily be ingested into ArchivesSpace. Templates are available for the record types where CSV or spreadsheet formats are indicated. Please contact ArchivesSpaceHome at lyrasis.org if you have questions about how to prepare your data.

Webinar Announcement: Using ArchivesSpace to create EAC-CPF records (90 minutes) The next ArchivesSpace webinar will be a 90-minute learning opportunity on May 24th at 2:00pm ET/11:00am PT led by Regine Heberlein, Library IT Data Analyst at Princeton University, and Christine Di Bella, ArchivesSpace Program Manager, demonstrating how to create valid EAC-CPF records using ArchivesSpace and offering some tips and tricks for making the process easier within your repository. Originally scheduled for February 9th, this 90 minute learning opportunity has been postponed to May 24, 2022, at 2:00pm ET/11:00am PT. If you?ve already registered for this webinar, your registration has been transferred to this new date. If you need to cancel your registration, you can do so using the connection information provided via Zoom. Date: May 24, 2022 Time: 2:00pm ? 3:30pm ET (11:00am ? 12:30pm PT) Where: Zoom Registration: https://lyrasis.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_e777kyjtQ6qjBMWeiiTWmg This webinar will be recorded and made available on the ArchivesSpace YouTube channel. Webinar description: The recent expansion of the agents module in ArchivesSpace greatly expanded the application?s support for the metadata standard Encoded Archival Context ? Corporate Bodies, Persons, and Families (EAC-CPF) and the potential for exchanging these records with other systems, including Social Networks and Archival Context (SNAC). Taking full advantage of this potential requires some work on the record creator?s part as ArchivesSpace?s requirements for creating agent records remain minimal. This learning opportunity will demonstrate how to create valid EAC-CPF records using ArchivesSpace and offer some tips and tricks for making the process easier within your repository. An open discussion and Q&A will follow. This learning opportunity introduces EAC-CPF in the context of ArchivesSpace but is not intended to be a full overview of the standard. Resources for learning more about EAC-CPF include: * Encoded Archival Standards: A Primer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYWQeBRnhz0 * EAC-CPF Community and Support page: https://eac.staatsbibliothek-berlin.de/community-and-mailinglist/ * EAC-CPF Tag Library: https://eac.staatsbibliothek-berlin.de/schemata-and-tag-library/ NOTE: This learning opportunity assumes basic knowledge of ArchivesSpace, including an understanding of agent records. If you do not have this, we recommend watching the videos of the Basics workshop series, available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3cxupmXL7WiHyMc0uFmsCEIVOQmrI7FL. We will not be able to answer general questions about ArchivesSpace or specific questions about individual ArchivesSpace implementations during this session. Who should attend: Anyone interested in using ArchivesSpace to create valid EAC-CPF records. Take a Break with ArchivesSpace this Friday Whether you?ve continued to work from home, have returned to the office, or find yourself stuck somewhere in the middle, we could all use a break. In that spirit, ArchivesSpace will be reinstating our popular casual zoom open calls on Fridays. With a welcoming and robust member community all over the world, ArchivesSpace can offer camaraderie and relaxation, no matter the current state of the world. We are holding casual open calls via zoom at 12pm ET each Friday. We won?t be developing agendas or presentations for these calls. We just want to provide an opportunity to connect, chat and recharge. Use this as a time to get help or talk about ArchivesSpace (or anything else) in an informal setting or just have a beverage with other ArchivesSpace users during this stressful time. Whether you can attend once or plan to be there every Friday, these calls are open to everyone but registration is required to join. Register to join any open call at https://lyrasis.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZcldOGuqjotE9cNSaa6j45issVCKrEQKQYv We seek to provide a welcoming, fun, and safe community experience for everyone.
