Intro to Fedora Workshop Round 2!
Arran Griffith
Hello,
Due to the overwhelming response we had to our first Intro to Fedora Workshop, which took place today, we are happy to announce that we have planned a second installment of the workshop for anyone who was waitlisted or unable to attend the first!
Round 2 will offer the same workshop - Introduction to Fedora 6.x. It remains a FREE virtual workshop for those looking to explore Fedora's latest features, understand its role in digital preservation, and learn more about available migration tooling and community-developed integrations.
Details
Date: Tuesday, March 25, 2025
Time: 12:00 – 2:00 pm Eastern
Cost: FREE for all attendees
Registration Link: https://lyrasis.zoom.us/meeting/register/Dsupb6AQSoWz_PaXDnI46w
This workshop will feature:
- A Fedora 6.x technical overview: Explore resource management, OCFL, and Fedora’s digital preservation capabilities.
- Hands-on migration practice: Work through migrating a sample dataset using Fedora’s Migration Toolkit.
- An introduction to integration strategies: Learn about community tools, like the Camel Toolbox, for integrating Fedora with your systems.
Learning Outcomes:
By the end of the workshop, you’ll be able to:
- Confidently manage resources and understand Fedora’s digital preservation features.
- Utilize the Fedora Migration Tool Suite for migrations from Fedora 3 to 6.
- Integrate Fedora with your ecosystem using tools like the Camel Toolbox.
While this workshop is geared toward an introductory level and understanding of CLI is not a requirement, a general understanding of the role, components and functionalities of a repository would be beneficial. Attendees will be provided access to an online sandbox via a URL which will be provided ahead of the workshop.
Feel free to share this invitation with colleagues and peers who may benefit from this workshop. We look forward to seeing you there!
Cheers,
Arran
