We want Samvera Community to be a fun, informative, engaging event for all our partners and participants. We've got a few strategies to help make this happen:

    1. We encourage everyone to apply the Samvera community principles of openness, inquiry, and respect in their interactions at the event.

    2. We have officially adopted an Anti-Harassment Policy.

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to community helpers

      • If there are still empty slots day of, you'll be able to sign up that day.

      • Attendees value these reports and they are balancing them with feedback on the plenary section, and have scheduled them accordingly.  Just a note this is scheduled slightly different than in years past.

      • We have a few mentors signed up but we could use a few more.

      • Brian reported they will try to do a retro this year as part of the closing plenary.  What have you learned? What do you still have questions about?
    • Q&A:
      • Posters – There is a template.
      • Any concern the lightning talks running concurrent will dissolve the poster session?
        • Program committee felt they wanted to try it for a year.
        • Rooms are adjoining, lets try it.
        • These 2 events may appeal to different people, and may compliment each other running together.
