Meeting Notes

Debrief on NDSA rollout efforts.

Take each topic area on National Agenda, get speakers involved in each aspect to talk about what they're doing and how that fits in.

Duraspace overview presentation in Oct.

How to keep in touch with funders? Feed them things and how do we find out if they do uptake on the Agenda?

Now that the National Agenda for Digital Stewardship has been released we can take a breath, regroup and discuss where the Outreach WG will go over the next six months. We’ll start with a debrief on the rollout strategy for the National Agenda and hear from some of our volunteers.

Then we’ll move to a discussion of “next steps” for the Outreach WG. One idea floating around is to prepare a survey of NDSA members to get an idea of the type of work they’d like to see the Outreach WG tackle. We’ll discuss this approach and perhaps get to a discussion of the type of information we hope to gather and some specific questions we’d like to see on such a survey (assuming we want to go that route).
