Community Design Workshops
In March and May of 2008, the CollectionSpace project team hosted two community design workshops. Participants from museums, libraries, and archives in the United States, Canada, and across Europe came together to develop and refine the project's roadmap for software development and implementation.
The final report from the workshops is available here. The project team is in the planning phases for the third community design workshop, to be held at the University of California, Berkeley, in Fall 2009.
