Moving Forward

Ideas for moving forward

Build a bridge with the Digital Humanities 
- more visible
- THAT Camp (The Humanities And Technology Camp)

Bi-monthly web chat regarding tools (see tools discussion )
- what strategies will ensure that momentum in this is maintained?
- time is a big issue - to learn new skills, keep abreast of current initiatives - professional development (line manager buy-in)
- could have 2 minute update and then main agenda item
- other people / institutions not at the unconference would like to participate

CurateCamp - could be another model to follow

Could have regional event - eg New England Archivists

Goals - need to be realistic 

Sustainability of tools created by projects ..

Community building
- but there is a cost - c$1000 per head

Identify and share best practices - best practices exchange 

Major Takeways from the meeting

Create pages for each of the following 4 areas, and to do some fact finding, identifying individuals to contribute in areas

Curriculum development

- International Curation Education (ICE) Forum

Digital Research communities

- Digital Humanities / scientists  
- Digital Archives Twitter day - possibly during Archives Week

Tools

Policies and best practices

- could possibly look at placing on wiki
