Agenda & Notes
Architecture for Samvera websites
Identifying priorities for James:
Hyku subdomain issues - only one listed; can we review hyku.samvera.org and check for others?
Any additional outreach and engagement ideas?
Midwest registration deadline is passed but can add others late - 33 attendees out of limit of 40!
Regional archives/SAA groups? Midatlantic archive group
Upcoming press releases/blog posts
Hyku site press release - volunteers for a draft?
Molly’s making the case documents - volunteers for a draft? - Molly will move on with version 2
Samvera style guide
This will make it easier for multiple people to write consistently, for future website styling, and for presentations
Website version is something James could work on
Can do a cheat-sheet version for branding/logos/colors/fonts/special words/boilerplate
Examples/resources: https://gettingattention.org/nonprofit-style-guide/, https://www.elevationweb.org/blog/nonprofit-brand-style-guide/,
Can default to AP style for things that are not Samvera specific - look at the subscription cost
Can include accessibility standards as part of the brand guide
Reviewing the monthly newsletter
How can this be improved? What should be the release date going forward?
Fedora example (using Constant Contact)
