Skills:
User Documentation offers team members the opportunity to develop or expand familiarity with ArchivesSpace functionalities while honing their copyediting and technical writing skills. Working as part of a collaborative team, members analyze and update existing Help Center documentation, ensuring that information is accurate and presented in a clear, well-organized manner for a general archival audience. Members also create documentation for new ArchivesSpace features in conjunction with system version releases, often working on tight deadlines.
Team members should have familiarity with or a willingness to learn how to use Confluence, the web-based wiki software used to manage the Help Center documentation and much of the team's administrative work.
