ArchivesSpace will be holding the in-person portion of its 8th Annual Member Forum on August 24, 2022, in the Commonwealth Room on the third floor of the Sheraton Boston Hotel. Just as in previous years, 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.
We are thrilled to be able to meet in-person ArchivesSpace users for the first time since 2019. The specifics of this half-day program continue to be shaped but the goal is to hold a casual and engaging meeting where members can highlight the work they have undertaken at their own organizations over the past few years to implement ArchivesSpace, improve practices and show off new tools or workshops (← is this the intended word?) they've developed. We encourage everyone who plans to attend to consider submitting a proposal to present at the forum.
In addition to this half day, in-person meeting, we will hold two virtual workshops the following week on August 30th and 31st. Registration for these workshops is for ArchivesSpace members only and registration for each workshop is separate from registration for this in-person meeting.
