The Member Match program is a new initiative to engage the ArchivesSpace membership community, created and organized by the Member Engagement sub-team of the ArchivesSpace User Advisory Council, with support from the ArchivesSpace Community Engagement Coordinator. The program is intended to be a resource and venue for peer-to-peer support between ArchivesSpace members. For one, year-long term, participants will be matched with a member with whom they can receive and offer professional insight, advice, and comradery. The program will also offer participants the opportunity to engage in exclusive events and enlightening discussions about ArchivesSpace and its active user community.
Thanks to valuable feedback from the first cohort of Member Match Participants, we’ve implemented the following updates to the program:
Monthly Listserv Discussion Topics
Each month, a member of the Member Engagement sub-team will reach out to the Member Match listserv to spur discussion and encourage continued engagement between matches
Quarterly Member Match Meet-Ups
These will be opportunities for large group socializing as well as dedicated time to spend with matches in breakout rooms
Option to participate in small group matches of 3 people
Mission
The Member Match program engages the ArchivesSpace member community as a resource and venue for peer-to-peer support, comradery, and advice for all things ArchivesSpace, Archives, and beyond.
