*The AAO’s Professional Development Committee presents:*

*Getting Started with Archeion*

Is your institution an AAO member? If yes - you have access to the Archeion
service <https://www.archeion.ca/joining_archeion>.

Archeion <https://www.archeion.ca/informationobject/browse> is Ontario’s
Archival Information Network - it is both a directory of Ontario archives
institutions as well as a discovery portal for researchers to search across
participating institutions’ archival descriptions.

Archeion makes use of the Access to Memory (AtoM)
<https://www.accesstomemory.org/en/docs/latest> archival description
platform. AAO institutional members have access to *free* editor accounts
in Archeion to begin adding their institution and archival descriptions to
the shared, multi-repository Archeion AtoM instance. Using Archeion can be
a very cost effective way for archives to gain access to AtoM to better
manage archival descriptions and make holdings available for discovery.

Kelli Babcock, the AAO’s Archeion Coordinator, will present this two hour
“Getting Started with Archeion” virtual workshop based on the freely
available Getting Started With Archeion
<https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1gOlnt4TPXycLOp2Urs8nknvyDT8eZckB/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=111967759727475855646&rtpof=true&sd=true>
training
slide deck. The workshop will go over all the basics of planning on how to
use Archeion, setting up your institution, and different contexts and
methods for adding descriptions into AtoM, along with tips for creating
authority records and subject, genre, and name access points. The session
will conclude with a question and answer period and advice about how to
find Archeion and AtoM additional information and asynchronous training.

The session is appropriate for anyone new to AtoM as well as institutional
members who want an Archeion refresh or advice and tips about using
Archeion. All active Archeion institutions are encouraged to attend for a
refresher on the service.

We hope to see you there!
