New Committee Updates

[comm...@islandora.ca]

Hi everyone,

I wanted to share an update on the new committees that were announced at the Annual General Meeting last month. 

We have scheduled the initial meeting for the Roadmap Committee for next Thursday and have two co-chairs for the committee; many thanks to Natalie Baur and Akanksha Singh for volunteering to lead the committee! 

The folks interested in the Events and Membership committees will be hearing from me in the next week to schedule initial conversations. 

The Workbench Working Group will be the topic of our September 30th Open Meeting, and the Adoption Working Group will get off the ground later in the fall. 

If you are interested in joining these committees or working groups, please reach out to me directly via email or Slack. As we mentioned at the AGM, the goals for these new committees will be guided by those in the 2025-2028 Strategic Plan. 

I will be reaching out again tomorrow with the agenda for our August Open Meeting, which will focus on improvements for the Islandora website. 

All the best,

Aubrey Shanahan
