Avalon team

We held our Avalon Forum for February on the 13th.  As always, we’re making the recording available via Avalon Media System.

We invite you to view the February Forum which covers the following:

• University of Houston and Avalon - Emily Vinson, Audiovisual Archivist
• Structural Metadata Editor - Jon Cameron, Dananji Withana - Indiana Univ./ Adam Arling - Northwestern Univ.

And, as always, I do a bit of housekeeping.

On January 15th, Avalon Community Manager, Ryan Steans, invited Avalon users, those curious about Avalon and beyond, to join in and think about Avalon not just as an open source resource, but as a community.

Join us on December 12th at 4:00, Eastern! (1:00 Pacific)

The Avalon Team is happy to announce the release of Avalon 6.4.4

What can you expect in this release?

The Avalon Team invites you to join us for Office Hours every week on Tuesdays from August 28th to October 30th.  We're currently piloting a program to enable anyone with an interest in Samvera to spend some time with our team to discuss all things Avalon Media System.
