Member Engagement Work Plan 2025-2026
Continue the Member Match program
Plan and implement a calendar of events/activities/discussion questions
First Friday informal discussions for cohort
Quarterly Mixers for cohort, including a collaborative event with another subteam
Document outcomes, including keeping data on participation
Coordinate call for participants for next year’s program
Collaborate with ArchivesSpace Community Engagement Lead to match and notify applicants
Implement early match re-assignment, with all members required to check-in and AFFIRM that they wish to remain with their existing match(es). Will be presented as an fun opportunity, so nobody has to feel awkward asking for change. Those who entirely failed to connect with original matches will be contacted and may be barred from re-assignment.
Assess, refine, and make changes to program and administrative documents, as needed
Review Sub-Team charge (end of year retrospective)
Plan at least one collaborative Member Match quarterly event with other UAC sub-teams
Develop ideas for Member Match participant engagement to replace listserv discussions, continue use of the listserv as an announcement platform
Continue Pilot Slack instance for asynchronous engagement and review success mid-year
