[Dialogue] 2015 ICA Global Archive Fall Sojourn Overview

[Lynda Cock via Dialogue]

When I made my reservations, I thought you would be beginning at 1:00.  The
best schedule I could get got me in close to that time, though I knew I
would be late.  

My flight arrives at 12:45 on Monday.  So it will most likely be 3 before I
am there.  I am so sorry.  However, I¹m really looking forward to being a
small part of this wonderful gathering.
What a fascinating job you have done in preparation.

Although some folks will be getting in the week before, our official launch
will be at 8 am on Monday, September 21. At 10 am, Ted Wysocki will join us
with some introductory remarks. By Monday afternoon, we will break out into
teams and begin our work, with some participants in the GreenRise and Google
Hangouts with those not able to attend physically.  Every day will end at
around 5 pm with a short wine and cheese and an opportunity to reconnect
with each other and exchange gems from the day.  On Thursday, we plan a
special celebration after our work.  By Friday morning, we¹re asking teams
to complete their work and a report on it.  On Friday afternoon we¹ll gather
in the Bonhoeffer room at 1 pm to set up for final reports.  At 2 pm we¹ll
hear final reports from each of the teams and have some dialogue.  Both
Monday¹s and Friday¹s plenaries will be broadcast via Google Hangouts on
Air/Youtube to ensure the fullest possible participation. These will also be
recorded for addition to the Archive¹s materials.


NOTE: If you have any questions about the work or if any of you are
interested in being a part of the sojourn, please contact the people listed
as team leadership. If you are interested in coming for the sojourn, please
contact:

As September 21st approaches and the participant list, on-site and virtual,
is determined, we will let you know who is doing what and how work is
progressing. 


On Behalf of the Archive Advisory Council,
Beret Griffith, Jack Gilles
