Proposed Agenda:

Community updates
- Lora, Johns Hopkins
  - New to position, new to Hydra
  - Migrating away from customized DSpace instance, using a testbed of Sufia for an institutional repository
  - Interested in management of born-digital material too – looking for the types of tasks Hydra can perform to help them
- Cincinatti
  - developing use cases and user stories around the background management of digital objects, but haven't done any development yet
  - Hyacinth – from Columbia, used to ingest into Hydra
- John, NLM
  - Interested in Archivematica, possibility of linux distribution since they don't support Ubuntu
  - Still lurking in Hydra community/stack, learning about different use cases for administrative side of things
  - Still very interested in ArcLight, which has been tabled
- Danielle, Oregon
  - OregonDigital delivers a lot of digitized collections
  - They are migrating AT to ASpace
  - Very interested in U-Mich's integration work (archivematica, aspace, repository) – too many silos
  - Trying to figure out digital preservation layer
- Artefactual
  - Excited about linux distribution
  - Looking for that first institution to drive Archivematica and Hydra integration
  - Archivematica Camp, August 24 - 26 in Ann Arbor; to include Archivematica-Hydra charette on 3rd day
Question: what kind of user scenarios/user studies are out there?
- Cincinatti working on.
- Group could share A LOT more user stories/use cases
Potential Topic 1: Follow-up on U-Mich demo: anything people want to discuss more?
Potential Topic 2: ASpace/Hydra integration
- Plurality of institutions seem interested in exploring this
- What might next steps be?
- Review past work ( ArchivesSpace Integration Use Cases and Hydra ArchivesSpace Integration Features)? Are institutions further along now?
Potential Topic 2b: Finding a baseline for fruitful dialogue moving forward:
- As a community we have a fairly specific set of interests ( February 1, 2016)
- But we operate from vastly divergent practices, infrastructure, resource constraints/availability, and implementations.
- How do we have effective conversations about ASpace/Hydra integration with so many institutions at various stages of implementation (or not) with these two products?
- Do we need a deeper understanding of where Hydra archives institutions are? Perhaps there's a data gathering step that needs to happen to seed future discussions?
Discussion:
- Cincinatti: Meandering ok; sense of community and ongoing dialogue is ok. Low commitment is good.
- Forum for discussion is great. Having demos is very helpful. Seeing how colleagues are doing things is useful.
- These discussions could open unexpected things down the line, like grant writing.
- Having HAIG around is good leverage for discussing archival needs with local stakeholders
SAA is coming up; they set aside a room for us if we want to meet. How long? For what purpose?
- Is there a chance to connect with the Collection Management roundtable?
- Archivematica will have a birds of feather session?
- Look up Agile for Archives documents from SAA last year.
Question:
- How updated is the wiki? Sorta.
