RSVP by 5/21 for Islandora Workbench bulk metadata update training at Islandora Open Meeting, 5/28 at noon ET

[Amy Blau]

Hello, Islandora!

We’re offering a more formal training opportunity in the May Open Meeting time on 5/28 (noon ET = 9 PT). Mark Jordan will lead a session on updating content using Islandora Workbench. 

During this 1.5 hour session, you will gain experience using Islandora Workbench to update your repository's content. After spending some time preparing your CSV and media files, you will move on to running Workbench to apply those changes to existing nodes and media. This session is intended for participants who already have a basic understanding of  / some experience in using Islandora Workbench.

Thanks to Compute Canada, 20 VMs running Islandora Starter Site will be provided. If you can install the starter site on your own, that will reduce the chance that you’ll need to share a VM. Participants should have an up-to-date version of Islandora Workbench already installed on their computers (documentation is available, and help can be found on Slack’s #islandoraworkbench channel). Sample content will be available, though bring your own if you wish.Thanks to Rosie Le Faive and Compute Canada for the technical support!

Please RSVP by May 21 to claim one of the 20 reserved seats.

Thanks!

Amy
