Hello everyone, Thanks to everyone who was able to make it for our first open community share-outs call. The discussions on Wikidata reconciliation and best practices for migrating digitized rare books into a new DAMS were very enlightening. If you were unable to make the meeting, you can catch up on our shared notes here<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1odMGaRYANbHqGW_oHrVjAmX16wLdpEZgVkSCPcyWYAE/edit>. Additionally, I explained to the group yesterday that for this year’s virtual DLF Forum, DLF’s working groups are creating short videos and accompanying blog posts as a way to introduce themselves and the work our groups do to new and returning DLF Forum attendees. If you are interested in collaborating on the Museums Cohort video and blog with me, please contact me directly at [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>. All groups have been given the following three prompts to respond to in their videos and blogs: * How do DLF’s working groups differ from other professional activities you’ve been involved with? * What’s the most important thing for newbies to your group to know? * If you had to describe your working group’s work with one word, what would it be and why? Even if you’re unable to work directly on the Museums Cohort’s materials for DLF Forum, please take a moment provide your answers to these prompts in yesterday’s meeting agenda<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1odMGaRYANbHqGW_oHrVjAmX16wLdpEZgVkSCPcyWYAE/edit#bookmark=id.yky0qqfc9pb4>. I plan to incorporate the group’s responses (anonymously) into our video and blog, so don’t hesitate to share your thoughts on any of the above prompts. Our next monthly call takes place October 28th, 2 PM ET/11 AM PT. Our guest speaker will be announced in the October Museums Cohort newsletter.
