September Joint UAC/TAC Meeting: Please note that our September meeting will be a joint meeting with TAC. The date and time will be announced soon. Scheduling Rest of Term Meetings: The August meeting was difficult to schedule, but it may just be because August is a difficult month.

His last day will be August 18. As the Technical Lead since March 2021, Brian was responsible for the infrastructure of the ArchivesSpace application and managing the different streams of development. He coordinated over a dozen production releases and release candidates, including the move to external Solr. Much of his recent work has focused on critical upgrades to the underlying technologies of the system, including Bootstrap and Rails. Brian has a long association with ArchivesSpace, having previously worked on the original development of the application as part of the Hudson Molonglo team and as a member of the ArchivesSpace program team as a developer from 2015-2016. Lyrasis, the Organizational Home for ArchivesSpace, will be working to fill this position soon. Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions. We wish Brian well in his future endeavors and hope for opportunities for our paths to cross in the future.

In previous positions she has given demos and created instructional materials to help new and existing users of software programs and done software testing. Her undergraduate studies at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte focused on international business, psychology, and Spanish, and she has also done some graduate work in Spanish. Bailey-Grace will be working 16 hours a week on a range of activities, primarily supporting our events and communications. She'll be working most closely with Jessica and me, but she will no doubt be interacting with community members regularly as she progresses through the different projects we have planned for her. She is based in North Carolina. Please join us in welcoming Bailey-Grace to the team!

Coffee Chat Poll: As we discussed, we are hoping to hold a TAC/UAC Coffee Chat early this Fall so that we can get to know our colleagues on council in an informal atmosphere. This is completely optional but if you are interested in attending, please fill out this Doodle poll by the end of day next Tuesday August 22. Scheduling October and rest of term meetings: Sorry for another poll. Doodle has limits on the number of meeting times you can input with a free account, so I'm trying something different to see if we can find a monthly meeting time that will work for more people. Please fill out this When is Good poll for October and rest of term meetings. Ideally, we will hold future monthly meetings at the same time selected for the October meeting. So for example, if our October meeting is on October 17 at 2pm ET, then future meetings will be held on the third Tuesday of the month at 2pm ET. Please note when filling out the poll: You may need to change the time zone at the top of the screen. The default is Eastern time. Subteam Draft Workplan Template: For those unable to attend yesterday's meeting, there is a new draft workplan template. Feel free to use it when creating your subteam work plans. If you feel this doesn't work for your team, you are welcome to use another format. Either way, please feel free to suggest changes and let me know what you think.

This patch release addresses several issues introduced by 3.4.0. People who haven't already upgraded to 3.4.0 should go directly to this release when they do upgrade, and because one issue has security implications for people using the public interface we recommend upgrading to 3.4.1 if you have already upgraded to 3.4.0. (Even if you don't use the public interface, if you use the spreadsheet importer to create archival objects with containers you will likely want to upgrade to 3.4.1 since it fixes a bug in that process that was inadvertently introduced in 3.4.0.) More information about what's in the release and the link to download it are at https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/releases/tag/v3.4.1. Information on upgrading to a new version of ArchivesSpace is available at https://archivesspace.github.io/tech-docs/administration/upgrading.html. If you have questions or need any assistance, please let us know. Special thanks to several community members for bringing the issues addressed in this release to our attention, including Peter Heiner, who contributed code to fix one of them.

We welcomed four new Board members: * Kate Crowe, University of Denver, representative for the Large membership level * Linda Hocking, Litchfield Historical Society, representative for the Very Small level * Maggie Hughes, The Huntington, representative for the Medium level * Kat Stefko, Bowdoin College, representative for the Small level We reviewed the continued strong financial position of ArchivesSpace and discussed the paramount importance of membership, the cornerstone of ArchivesSpace sustainability. We heard updates on two programs previously approved by the Board, the new Consortium Provider affiliation and the expanded Educational Program Membership, which are prompting good conversations about building stronger connections across the archival community. We also noted the excellent work of our Advisory Councils, TAC and UAC, as they closed one term and started a new one. We approved a proposed framework to review the ArchivesSpace Code of Conduct by organizing a task force of community members, including volunteers from the Member Engagement sub-team. The group will be supported in their work through engagement with a DEIA consultant. Past board chair Annie Benefiel will lead this effort. More information will be available soon. The Board also discussed a recent inquiry from the Social Networks and Archival Context (SNAC) project about the possibility of a merger with ArchivesSpace at the conclusion of its grant funding next year. While the board appreciates the value of SNAC's work, we determined that due to ArchivesSpace's other priorities at this time and questions about alignment of mission and ongoing sustainability of a combined program/product, SNAC would be best served by undertaking an in-depth sustainability assessment independent of the concept of an ArchivesSpace merger. We wish them all the best and left open the possibility of collaboration in the future. As I begin my term as Board Chair, I am looking forward to working with you to continue to strengthen the application and the community that we have all built together. Please feel free to reach out directly to me or to your elected membership level representative if you have feedback you would like to share.

In previous positions she has given demos and created instructional materials to help new and existing users of software programs and done software testing.

She is based in North Carolina. Please join us in welcoming Bailey-Grace to the team! Brian Hoffman departs ArchivesSpace It is with regret that we announce that Brian Hoffman left his position as ArchivesSpace Technical Lead to take a position with Harvard University Libraries. His last day was August 18. As the Technical Lead since March 2021, Brian was responsible for the infrastructure of the ArchivesSpace application and managing the different streams of development. He coordinated over a dozen production releases and release candidates, including the move to external Solr. Much of his recent work has focused on critical upgrades to the underlying technologies of the system, including Bootstrap and Rails. Brian has a long association with ArchivesSpace, having previously worked on the original development of the application as part of the Hudson Molonglo team and as a member of the ArchivesSpace program team as a developer from 2015-2016. We will be working to fill this position soon. Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions.
