Emily highlighted a few items:
Now that the Digital Scholarship Librarian position has been filled, it might be worthwhile for us to now reach out to Jasmine Clark and setup a meeting/discussion. Rebecca agreed to send a message to Jasmine, inviting her.
Our desire to hold a joint meeting with the Collections SST to review the OA collections. Annie agreed to contact Karen Kohn about the possibility of a meeting in November.
Rebecca noted that she reviewed the 'Authors Alliance Workshops in a Box' slides Annie recently shared, thought them useful, and that we should consider doing something with them in the Spring, like workshops. There was discussion about how we would reach out to the desired audiences and encourage them to attend. Natalie suggested perhaps recording any workshops we hold for later distribution, and Annie suggested offering them virtually via zoom. Natalie noted that HSL will be recording all of their sessions beginning in the Spring, and she agreed to speak with Courtney Eger concerning logisticsfound out HSL is not going to start recording all workshops in the spring. They are going to continue just recording workshops as requested using Ensemble and then will share with the requester and the workshop attendees. They are thinking about/planning to pilot some live, online workshops with Zoom. It sounds like they are planning to repeat those workshops in person, also.
They are considering doing more recording in the future and making these recordings public, but do realize some workshop content would need to be edited to not include copyrighted images, etc.
Rebecca suggested that we should assign names to goals, similar to what we did last year -- individuals assigned would not necessarily be wholly responsible for the goal but function more as an accountability coach or bottom-liner.

Emily reminded us that Rachel Appel will be returning from family leave the week of October 14th and that Emily herself will be rotating off the group at that time.
Our next meeting is scheduled for October 17th.
We decided that in our next meeting or two, we should begin discussing possible workshops for the Spring.
