What: The idea is simple: Those of us using AS got together to offer hands-on examples, tutorials and presentations. ArchivesSpace offers training on the basics; this skill share was a chance to learn and teach how to do more (hence the name “Beyond the Basics”).
When: Tuesday, November 7, 2017, 9:30am – 4:00pm
