At the SAA 2022 conference in Boston, members of the Visioning Access Systems (VAS) subgroup held an incubator session to discuss An Exploration of Access Systems: A Framework for Access Systems for Born-Digital Archival Materials and several questions related to access systems for born-digital archival materials. I'm pleased to announce that a summary of the session can be found at this link: https://osf.io/ty9sn.
Based on feedback that we received, VAS will be holding at least one Zoom-based discussion session to gather additional community feedback on our framework and access systems for born-digital archival materials. During the session(s), participants will discuss questions related to the framework and/or born-digital archival materials. Feedback gathered from the session(s) will be used to enhance our framework and ensure that it is truly community-centered and community-driven.
The session(s) will be held in April 2023. This invitation is open to any who are responsible for or interested in providing access to born-digital archival materials, regardless of their participation in our SAA 2022 session.
