investigate adding a new listserv to our community to reflect the diversity in our concerns and discussions. The Users Group listserv has grown to become an incredible space to share and help troubleshoot technical knowledge and issues, but we’ve heard feedback
from some ArchivesSpace members that it can be difficult to follow these discussions or post about less technical concerns.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="color:black">Before we dive into adding another channel for people to connect, we’d like to explore your communication needs and how conversations on a new listserv might be distinct from the current
ASpace Users Group Listserv. We have created a</span><a href="https://goo.gl/forms/OYLYNqMeRtkXYBVN2"><span style="color:black">
</span><span style="color:#1155CC">short survey</span></a><span style="color:black"> to collect your suggestions and feedback, and invite you to share any thoughts you have to help clarify the purpose and parameters for potentially setting up a new listserv.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
