Greetings, Please excuse any cross-posting. The Statewide & Regional Stepping Stones to the National Digital Platform<https://www.gvsu.edu/library/stepping-stones-68.htm> project will be launching the first in a series of monthly virtual planning calls for our entire state community of libraries, archives, museums, galleries, historical societies, and other similar collecting institutions. Running through the remainder of 2019, these virtual monthly calls will be an opportunity for all such institutions to catch up with the work of this incredible new collaborative initiative, and begin directly contributing to laying the foundation for the new open community and digital preservation network to-come. The first call is scheduled two weeks from now on Monday, July 29th from 11am-12pm on the Zoom platform. See the call-in information below.

If you can only join by phone, no problem, you’ll be able to follow along offline. We’ll have reminder announcements going out next week, and will share presentation slides and a working agenda at that time for folks to review. We’ll also record the conversations and make the link available on our project website. We hope you can make it. All are welcome!
