<p style="margin:0in"><span style="color:black">Thank you all for your patience as we finalize the ArchivesSpace v3.0 release candidate, which we anticipate putting out in March. If you're interested in what's coming, we recommend reviewing the recording of
our recent webinar about the expanded agent module functionality that is the primary focus of this update. While the required fields to create a valid agent record will remain minimal, the expanded agents functionality will allow for greater compliance with
metadata standards used to describe persons, families, and corporate entities like MARCXML authority and EAC-CPF, facilitate better exchange with databases like LCNAF and SNAC and support better contextualization of agents by providing more ways to apply controlled
access headings or information about the agent and their relationships. A recording of the webinar as well as a link to a test instance where you can try out the new functionality is available at

<p style="margin:0in"><b><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:black">Welcome new ArchivesSpace Tech Lead, Brian Hoffman<br>
<br>
</span></b><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin:0in"><span style="color:black">We are pleased to announce Brian Hoffman will be joining ArchivesSpace as the Technical Lead on Monday, March 1, 2021.
<b><br>
<br>
</b><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin:0in"><span style="color:black">Brian will be familiar to many in the community from his previous experiences developing for ArchivesSpace. He worked with Hudson Molonglo, the original developers of ArchivesSpace, in our early years and then
with the ArchivesSpace program team as a developer later on. For those scoring at home, by number of commits he’s #3 on the
<a href="https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/graphs/contributors">all-time list of ArchivesSpace code committers</a>.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin:0in"><span style="color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin:0in"><span style="color:black">Brian’s experience goes far beyond ArchivesSpace, however, having worked with institutions such as New York University, Temple University, and the Museum of Modern Art on applications and technical infrastructure
to support many different functions in archives, libraries, and museums. He is skilled not just with the technologies that make up ArchivesSpace and the larger universe of web applications in our field, but also conversant with many of the metadata standards
and workflows that support our work.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin:0in"><span style="color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin:0in"><span style="color:black">As Tech Lead, Brian will be responsible for the infrastructure of the ArchivesSpace application and manage the different streams of development that go into it, including work from staff developers, contractors,
and community members. He will lead the Core Committers group as they continue to build and strengthen our community of code contributors. He will also work closely with community members and the rest of the program team as we all work to ensure the ArchivesSpace
application meets the needs of archives and other collecting institutions now and in the future.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin:0in"><span style="color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin:0in"><span style="color:black">Brian is an excellent colleague and collaborator, valued for his thoughtful approach to issues and good humor. We look forward to this chance to both reconnect and chart a new path for ArchivesSpace together. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin:0in"><span style="color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin:0in"><span style="color:black">ArchivesSpace has been really fortunate to have had Mark Cooper of LYRASIS Digital Technology Services and Lora Woodford take on many of the responsibilities of the Tech Lead while the position has been vacant.
We truly appreciate their work to keep ArchivesSpace going on the technical side over the last year.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin:0in"><span style="color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin:0in"><span style="color:black">Brian will officially join the ArchivesSpace team on March 1. Please join us in welcoming Brian to his new role in the ArchivesSpace community!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
