  • Noon or 1pm EST = 5-6pm in UK

• Email:

  • Monday at the earliest to set up Zoom (Jessica)

  • Push it to member match listserv only, missed the monthly update

  • Send out announcement by 10/6, send reminder 10/18

•  Code of Conduct review

• From Christine: The ArchivesSpace Governance Board approved the creation of a task force to review the ArchivesSpace Code of Conduct, in part to address some gaps that were identified in connection with the Virtual Member Forum incident earlier this year.

• The task force will be composed of the following:

  • Board member

  • 2-3 Member Engagement Sub-team members

  • 1-3 Community volunteers

  • Optional: DEI Facilitator Consultant

• The review will consist of the following: 

  • Clarify the distinction, if necessary, between responses to intentional harassment vs. unintentional or accidental harm.

  • Review the response procedures and timeline to ensure opportunities for dialogue, understanding, and correction of offending behaviors.

  • Review the possible need for, and impact of, complainant anonymity.

• → Reach out to ASpace to get more information on how much work will it to be to join the taskforce, we do have interest

• Process now:

  • Survey responses came to program team, not the board

  • Suggestions for actionable items came from Christina and Jessica

  • Board was not involved until the board had to become involved

  • Code is for the community to enforce the code itself, not a top-down process

•  Informal engagement opportunities

• unstructured Zoom coffee/happy/office hour events

• Another platform for message board discussions? Jamboards?

• Participant reached out about the monthly discussion posts on the listserv

  • “Historically not gotten responses so we are looking at other options, but would like engagement”

  • Ask the participants what they think they would engage with

• Jaime took informal survey: pervasive idea that Member Match works between institutions and not people → focus on re-branding the program

• Review member match pages to see if text needs to be changed → moving forward reviewing the pages for updates

• → Pause coming up with new idea until after we gauge interest in listserv discussions

Discussion

To-Do List

•  Mary: Send out an email to listserv to gauge interest/ideas with listserv discussions
•  Jessica: Make zoom info for tips and tricks by Monday 10/2
•  Mary: Once zoom info is created, create draft announcement email for event
•  Mary: Email ASpace re: Code of Conduct review to gauge how much work it will be, sub-team members unsure if they could donate their time
•  Everyone: explore the documentation/wording on public member match pages, look for revisions
