Action Team Updates:

Storytellers

  • Carol: April 19th meeting. Agenda and contact information to follow.
  • Kim: core group of student to write PSAs. Has equipment and editing lined up. Meeting next week to get outlines for script ideas. *Hope to have this ready for July meeting.
  • Carol: Kim asked how we could make some of the materials on wiki site available to students?
  • Butch: Not really possible right now. Freely encourage to copy and post it in another place. Or, set up your own public facing wiki and we can place information on that.
  • Kim: students setting up a blog and wiki. Don't need additional funding. 30 second PSA. Hope to generate ideas at July conference.
  • Kim: PSA might be a good start to create Kickstarter project in the fall
  • Butch: Drawing attention to it – hopes folks will look to Kickstarter for digital preservation efforts: 1. Create awareness and 2. Leverage tools...

DP in a Box

  • Jane Zhang: Started in January. Students preparing final workshop. Flier out and promotion begins this week, held at library at Catholic University and focusing and attracting on undergrads and create a poster to July partner meeting.

Background on Jane's class: Used Box as foundation for a major assignment. Required to use and build their own outreach material. First day of class Butch introduced the class.

  • Dever: Preservation Week?
  • Jane: will use the class to do a workshop divided into 4 parts – storage, collection, content, ?. Each group will present the section.
  • Dever will write a blog after attending the workshop.
  • Butch: Explained the background and that Jane's Digital Curation class is acting as a focus group. Jane, Dever, Sue, and Butch – poster for JCDL.
  • Kim may do it with her students, as well, to "build a better box."
  • Jane: Course offered once per year, would like to continue – is there any further activities that are needed that students can participate in coming years?
  • Butch: Want a public facing site for Box. May want to set up another tool (beyond Omeka) – then get wider engagement to build a community around it.
  • Jane: Engage students to promote use of the Box once public-facing site is up.

Kickstarter Curated Pages

  • Carol: Once per week check out projects to see if there are new ones of interest to the preservation community. Have found a few. If interested in becoming a curator for Kickstarter contact Carol directly.
  • Kim: Happy to help with Kickstarter.
