Archivematica Con Brooklyn 202o Call for Proposals/Contributors

The first Archivematica Con! Archivematica Con hopes to create a broad forum for active Archivematica users across the user community continuum. The 2.5-day meeting will offer a variety of sessions and networking opportunities for beginners as well as well-versed practitioners from libraries and archives to museums. Day 1 will consist of two streams: Artefactual Systems will conduct a boot camp for beginners in Stream 1, while Stream 2 will be geared for practitioners. Day 2 (full day) and Day 3 (half day) will be single-stream session blocks by and for practitioners, although beginners and boot campers are welcome to attend.
