REMINDER: Hive Mind tomorrow (Thursday 4/20)!

  • 1.  REMINDER: Hive Mind tomorrow (Thursday 4/20)!

    Posted Apr 19, 2023 04:47 PM

    Please join SAA's Issues & Advocacy Section Steering Committee for our 2nd meetup in the Hive Mind program series, in which we will be discussing spring cleaning on Thursday, April 20th from 2-3pm EST (1-2pmCT/12-1pmMT/11-12pmPST).  Zoom information below.

    To be responsible stewards reappraisal and deaccessioning is not only something we can do, but something that we *should* do. It can inform workflow priorities, clear space for new accessions, and help focus a sometimes-muddled collections strategy. As we move forward with this practice, though, we may find that we get pushback from a variety of sources. And so, we invite you to join us for this conversation to talk through issues that you may have in your own institutions in a judgment-free, anonymous environment. 

    Questions/topics we plan to discuss include: 

    • Successful strategies for building a reappraisal and deaccessioning workflow 
    • Advocacy around deaccessioning work, both internally and externally  
    • What are some roadblocks you found in your reappraisal and deaccessioning work and how have you overcome them? We look forward to seeing you there!  Please reach out with any questions or concerns.  Issues and Advocacy Section Steering Committee  Zoom Information: Topic: I&A Hive Mind #2: Spring Cleaning Time: Apr 20, 2023 02:00 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada)  Join Zoom Meeting https://rit.zoom.us/j/92605396515  Meeting ID: 926 0539 6515  One tap mobile +16465588656,,92605396515# US (New York) +13126266799,,92605396515# US (Chicago)  Dial by your location         +1 646 558 8656 US (New York)         +1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)         +1 669 900 6833 US (San Jose)         +1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)         +385 1777 6333 Croatia         +385 1300 0988 Croatia Meeting ID: 926 0539 6515 Find your local number: https://rit.zoom.us/u/ac9B1x3OYv  Join by SIP 92605396515@zoomcrc.com  Join by H.323 162.255.37.11 (US West) 162.255.36.11 (US East) 221.122.88.195 (China) 213.19.144.110 (Amsterdam Netherlands) 213.244.140.110 (Germany) 209.9.211.110 (Hong Kong SAR) 69.174.57.160 (Canada Toronto) 65.39.152.160 (Canada Vancouver) Meeting ID: 926 0539 6515
