Annual Report:
- Change LG photo. Sam will change the photo to one of those of the current LG.
New VIVO website:
- Any new suggestions for Sam? Sam shows us the new website, we all thought it was great. No changes by now.
- Redirect from vivoweb.org: can we do that? We need to contact with Mike Conlon to do that, meanwhile Sam will add a button to the old website that announces we have a new website and redirect to the new website. When we can do the correct redirection, the old website will be disused.
- Ready to make changes?
VIVO at the CRIS2022 conference:
- Call for papers
- VIVO track (how to organize?)
Ann Beynon email:
- . Bruce will write a VIVO track theme proposal and will share with us, to send to the community, as the first step to organize the VIVO track
Ann Beynon email (Dons Elsberg presentation):
- In the Oct 26 In the Oct 26 North American user group meeting, Don Elsberg from Univ Colorado Boulder mentioned an example of his university saving tens of thousands of dollars using VIVO for a specific request. It would be great if we can use this testimonial. It doesn’t have to be a full blown case study (although that could be nice). It could be a sentence or two quote that we can put on the VIVO website. I often get asked for tangible examples of ROI when institutions are considering adopting VIVO. Any examples like this would be great to point to.
- Text or video? (as part of video campaign). We'll do a video (Sam can help with this)
- Bruce has contacted with Don, any feedback? No feedback yet, but get back to him
Social media (twitter/linkedin/groups):
- comments regarding Oct 26, North American user group meeting?
- CRIS2022 announcement? other announcements?
- Julia can publish a tweet/linkedin regarding this meeting
- other announcements? Bruce comments that it would be good to communicate more to the VIVO community. He will write a draft to communicate to the groups that can later be published on social media as well.
NEW (and relevant) ACTION POINT!
We have discussed regarding the goals of this group and the Membership and Community Engagement Interest Group, we all agreed that the goals are very similar and with overlapping among two groups.
We have proposed to merge the two groups. To go ahead with this Michele, who leads the membership group, will discuss this with them, with the response he will come and comment to us, if we all agreed, we would proceed to merge both groups.
For next meetings:
Think about VIVO and DSpace

Agenda
- VIVO Website
- Last summer, we assessed the requested changes and divided them into Quick Corrections and Longer-Term Changes. The Quick Corrections are done.
- Could we make some of the Longer-Term Changes? Sam says the home page is hard-coded and will require development efforts. It's a custom WordPress template designed by a contractor. Sam can make edits but can't make substantial changes.
- Let's ask Meg to join the next meeting on March 3.
- Google map: will be changed today.
- Julia needs to review Estefania's flyer draft and send out proposed changes before the next meeting. We hope to finalize before the next meeting and post on the website.
- Conference: June 25th. We need to update the conference prospectus, so Mic will let us know about that.
- Marketing assessment: Mic recommends that we use it as an opportunity to engage with the community, or a marketing tool. There might be some interesting ideas in the community. So it's not about output but giving them an opportunity to be part of something.
- Julia will send out a link to the previous survey to the group.
- Jenn will send more Twitters followers.
