New page is in the outreach working group space - based on Fedora calendar. We can look at this regularly for opportunities for presentations. 

OR ends today. JohnK spoke on a panel called "broken for all" about service providers/vendors not providing pid services and its impacts on aggregators. 

Feel free to add events to the calendar. 


grant proposal updateMarkP

Starting to float concept to various funders. Submitted preproposals (very short) to Mellon and Sloane and they are not taking us forward. Work doesn't align with their funding initiatives. Director at Sloane is focusing more on open science and may be a helpful framing for future proposals. Mellon working less on scholarly communications and more on cultural heritage and underrepresented collections. IMLS cycle is approaching. We may consider applying there in September. 

Kate - is there a history of IMLS funding for ARKS? 

John - we don't believe they have. Mark has some experience with IMLS. 

Mark - has a relationship with a program officer. National Leadership Grant track is possible - National Digital Platform. Pre-reading is helpful. National Science Foundation contact - data management section. Suggestions provided: Reaching out to NSF is fine but need to turn it into the project with research questions. Hard for them to support the development and maintenance of projects. They put a lot of infrastructure into the DOI world. 

Erin - Thanks to Mark for all this hard work.
