[Archivesspace_Users_Group] call for ArchivesSpace Member Forum 2016 speakers and topics

[Christine Di Bella]

Hello ArchivesSpace members,

ArchivesSpace will be holding its second annual Member Forum on August 2 at the Robert W. Woodruff Library of the Atlanta University Center. Just like last year's inaugural event, this will be a free opportunity for staff from ArchivesSpace member institutions to meet and share information with each other and the program team about all things ArchivesSpace. More information on the developing program is on the ArchivesSpace wiki at https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/wiki/display/ADC/ArchivesSpace+Member+Forum+2016. A big thank you to the members of our planning group for their efforts so far.

Now we need your help to make the program great! We've put some proposed topics for workshops and sessions up on the wiki. We're looking for speakers for the proposed topics, as well as suggestions for more topics you'd like to learn or talk about at the meeting in either half-day workshops or 75-minute sessions. Sessions may take any one of a number of formats, including panels, lightning rounds, and discussion groups, and even the proposed topics can take a different format or direction based on who volunteers to take them on.

There is a short Google form available at https://goo.gl/IDlu6G; you can submit ideas or volunteer yourself to speak either via the form or by emailing me directly. Please send your proposals, ideas, and suggestions by April 29. We'll aim to finalize the program as much as possible by May to give people plenty of time to make their travel arrangements.

If you have any questions or other suggestions at this point, please just let me know. Registration for the Member Forum will open later this spring. Thanks in advance for your help in making this a great event!

Christine
