==Action Team Updates==

1) Content Registry Team
Christie and Rachel reported on the registry group's meeting last Friday where the group reviewed the recent survey results about whether people do already or would participate in a registry. Half of respondents said they were registering content somewhere, but there was no clear leader. Seemed like a reason to create our own registry. We're looking at Recollection tool more and hope to learn from NDSA members what would motivate them to participate. Ease of access and participation is clearly important. Cathy added that enabling of auto-harvesting would be great.

What is "preserved" was also discussed - what a preserved collection means in our registry. We will leave it up to institutions to self identify as preserved based on the ALA definition. Another survey will be done soon to determine what fields will be essential, and the minimum of what we would need to develop. No workshop will be held at the July meeting.

2) Clearinghouse Team
Kristine reported. Workshop will be held. The plan is to provide ahead of time the excel spreadsheet data in a more user-friendly diagram for folks to look at before the workshop. And, examples of at-risk content. Will ask CWG members to help as she begins to pull these together.

==Planning for NDSA Workshops==
So, one workshop from CWG - for the clearinghouse group. The NDIIPP meeting planning team is reviewing proposals this week. Details about registration/schedule should be coming soon. Abbie will forward. This  link has the most current information: http://digitalpreservation.gov/news/events/ndiipp_meetings/ndiipp11/index.html

The WG is still hoping to do a working dinner Wednesday night. Would like to meet after the workshop. Some folks traveling Monday night, others Tuesday morning, so Tuesday morning not ideal. Kristine will survey to see what times would be good.

==Other projects?==
Abbie asked members to contact her and Cathy if there are other ideas for projects (big or small) that the Content Working Group could be focusing on. We want to be sure members are engaged and working on projects of interest to them and their institutions.

=== Next Meeting ===
Our next call will be July 6 at 11am EST. Agenda and call details to be sent a few days prior.
