ArchivesSpace is committed to bringing community members together through Annual, Regional and Online forums but with an ArchivesSpace member community of over 400 institutions and a small ArchivesSpace program team, we can’t host forums in as many locations as we’d like. Drawing on the power of the community, though, we can work together to cover a lot more ground.

If you are interested in hosting a community-led forum in the next 12-24 months, our Forum in a Box (https://archivesspace.org/using-archivesspace/archivesspace-forums) may be right for you! This toolkit includes ArchivesSpace forum agenda templates and a checklist.  It also outlines the application process for hosting a forum, what you as host will be responsible for, what the ArchivesSpace team will provide and how you can receive either In-Kind or Financial assistance from the team.

By submitting this form the host institution agrees to:

1) Make this forum open to ArchivesSpace members outside of the host organization.
2) Fulfill all responsibilities outlined in the document "Responsibilities of the Host Institution."
3) Provide the ArchivesSpace program team with the results of the post-forum assessment.
