Technical Implementation Working Group meeting

The next Local Contexts Technical Implementation Working Group meeting will be held December 4, 20:00 UTC.

This meeting will focus on implementation options for Hub users and we will hear from Matthew McKinley at Omeka about their adoption of the Local Contexts Hub as our first certified Integration Partner.

Current and invited members of the Working Group should have an email and calendar invite with connection details. If you are interested in the group, you can read more and submit your interest on our Working Groups and Networks page.

The Technical Implementation Working Group (TIWG) connects institution and data repository staff, researchers, and others for technical discussions around implementing the Local Contexts Labels and Notices within metadata and databases. Meetings can be informal conversations, working meetings, or feature invited speakers. There are currently over 140 group members.
