The Hydra Archivists Interest Group is composed of archivists working at institutions affiliated with Project Hydra and engaged in repository development using that community’s suite of tools. Archivists at these institutions meet regularly to discuss ways in which they can advance archival technology needs through better communication and understanding of software development activities. During this three hour working meeting, we will discuss data modeling -- what it is, why archivists should care -- and then start a conversation around developing a data model for archives. This meeting is co-sponsored by TS-DACS, and is open to anyone interested in the technical standards that inform archival description, including not just EAD, DACS, and EAC-CPF, but emerging standards like the Portland Common Data Model and the work of ICA’s Expert Group on Archival Description. We welcome all who are interested, but our room size is limited to 60. We also respectfully seek attendees who are prepared to participate, since a significant portion of this meeting will be composed of break-out discussions and activities.

Has your institution ever faced a federal lawsuit in which a FOIA request was a catalyst? Northern Michigan University did – and the university’s response to these requests drew media coverage from all over the country. Join this discussion based panel to learn more about FOIA, the NMU Archives’ specific experience, and to discuss other vital issues surrounding public records. Attendees with varying levels of FOIA experience are encouraged to attend and share in the discussion.
The 2013 OCLC “Past Forward” research symposium http://www.oclc.org/research/events/2013/06-03.html, included the talk "No One Cooks the Bacon Alone: Models for Success in Building out a Digitally-Integrated Special Collections Program”, which elicited lively discussion. This session will continue the conversation, with participants discussing new approaches to staffing the roles needed, programmatic efforts to address this, as well as what we see in the future, and next steps to further this movement.
