All, To facilitate the discussion on the challenges of working with content creators in our CWG call next Wednesday, are there 3-5 members of the group who might be willing to speak briefly, for about 5 minutes or so, on your past, present, or future work with digital content creators? If so, please let us know! It would be great to hear a range of perspectives. Thanks, Christie and Abbie Christie Moffatt Digital Manuscripts Program History of Medicine Division National Library of Medicine Building 38, Room 1E-21 8600 Rockville Pike Bethesda, MD 20894 Phone: 301-496-9136 Fax: 301-402-7034 From: Grotke, Abigail [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: Wednesday, September 24, 2014 2:17 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [NDSA-CONTENT] CWG Meeting 9/3 minutes, and a preview of topic for 10/1 call Hi all, apologies for the delay in getting these out. Our meeting minutes from the last call (plus a link to a recording) are available here: http://www.loc.gov/extranet/wiki/osi/ndiip/ndsa/index.php?title=Meeting_Minutes_9/3/14 And notes are repeated below, for those who don't want to logon to the wiki... We'll send a reminder Tuesday about the call Wednesday, October 1 at 11am ET, but we'd like to propose a continued brainstorming session on the questions we discussed in our September meeting: 1) What are the top challenges of working with content creators? and 2)What are the ways that the CWG can provide support for working with creators? We encourage you to think about these topics, and send guidance/forms to us for addition to the list, which we think could grow to be a really helpful resource (or come prepared to show off examples of things if you've got them). Thanks, and we'll talk to you next week! Abbie & Christie September 3 CWG Meeting minutes: Welcome all new members!
