Philadelphia, PA | Monday 23rd October - Thursday 26th October
Samvera Connect is a chance for the Samvera Community to gather in one place at one time, with an emphasis on synchronizing efforts, technical development, plans, and community solidarity. The meeting program is aimed at existing adopters, managers and developers and at new folks who may be just "kicking the tires" on Samvera technologies and who want to learn more.
