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. Please email ArchivesSpaceHome at lyrasis.org if you have any questions.

We reviewed: * an operations report which highlighted the membership renewal process and starting to participate in more in person events * the continued excellent work of TAC and UAC and working to help clarify the relationship between the councils and the board * preparations for the May 27 Governance/Community session to help clarify the governance board?s role and provide opportunities for members to identify their representatives for further engagement. The session was recorded, so please stay tuned for information on how to go back and watch. The board approved: * A FY22-23 budget focused on supporting the continued growth of the software, paying down technical debt, and fostering community engagement efforts * Training recommendations that move to a communitywide, virtual training model with expanded training offerings * A slate of TAC and UAC appointees. Look for an announcement from the Nominating Committee soon! We recognized the election of Julia Novakovic, Senior Archivist, The Strong, representing the small membership level, to serve as the ArchivesSpace Governance Vice Chair effective July 1, 2021. She will then serve as Chair effective July 1, 2022. This will be my last message to the community as Board Chair as my one-year term ends June 30, 2021. It has been an honor to serve in this role.
