We're excited to announce the second AtoM Camp, and our first in the United Kingdom, cohosted by St. John's College Archives and Artefactual! Inspired by similar events like Hydra Camp, Islandora Camp and Fedora Camp, AtoM Camp is intended to provide a space for anyone interested in or currently using AtoM to come together, learn about the platform from other users, and share their experiences.
Contents
Dates & Location
May 9-11, 2017 - Fisher Building, St. John's College at the University of Cambridge (Cambridge, UK)

Cambridge is approximately an hour and a half North of London by car or public transportation. Cambridge is a city on the River Cam in eastern England, home to the prestigious University of Cambridge, dating to 1209. University colleges include King’s, famed for its choir and towering Gothic chapel, as well as Trinity, founded by Henry VIII, and St John’s, with its 16th-century Great Gate. University museums have exhibits on archaeology and anthropology, polar exploration, the history of science and zoology.
St John’s College is located in Cambridge city centre. It's close to buses, coaches and the rail station; and is within easy walking distance of many hotels, B&Bs and restaurants.
Accessibility
The Fisher Building is wheelchair accessible and there is a lift in the building if individuals have difficulty managing stairs. There is a wheelchair accessible entrance to the College off Northampton St, which happens to be the closest entrance to the Fisher Building where the Camp will be held.
Getting to Cambridge
Flying into Cambridge
Cambridge is connected by coach and rail to London Stansted Airport. For information on rail links see the Rail website and for coaches the National Express website.
Taking the train to Cambridge
Cambridge is a 45 min train journey from London King’s Cross Rail Station. See the Rail website. The train leaves on the quarter hour. The rail station is connected to the city centre by bus and by taxi.
Parking
The car park is Park Street car park:
Registration
Link: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/atom-camp-cambridge-registration-33098660986
Cost: £325
Camp Counsellors
At all of the camps that Artefactual hosts, we seek to provide attendees with counselors who have a wide range of experience with the software. Supplementing members of the Artefactual crew will be counselors who have extensive experience with AtoM as users and administrators.
Jenny Mitcham
Jenny Mitcham is Digital Archivist at the Borthwick Institute for Archives at the University of York. She managed the AtoM implementation project at the Borthwick and has blogged about the process of selecting AtoM and moving it into production (http://digital-archiving.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/AtoM). She is currently planning for the implementation of Archivematica alongside AtoM to archive born digital holdings.
Pete Vox
Pete is a software developer and is the managing director @ IMAGIZ (http://www.imagiz.com) - a small web development company based in Richmond, London. Pete has over 30 years' of development experience and for the last five has been mainly focussed on projects within the heritage space. Recently the IMAGIZ team have delivered web-based projects for a number of Archival, Museum and Educational institutions, including the migration of Archive Catalogue data from Calm to AtoM on behalf of the Museum of Croydon (http://museumofcroydoncollections.com). IMAGIZ is currently working to support AtoM in the UK - including development of UK-specific tools and features.
Dan Gillean
Dan serves as AtoM Program Manager and provides quality assurance testing, requirements analysis, documentation, technical support and community dialogue for Artefactual’s AtoM and Archivematica projects.
Sara Allain
Sara started working at Artefactual on both the AtoM and Archivematica projects in 2016, providing requirements analysis, user documentation, QA testing and community support. Prior to her work at Artefactual Sara worked in academic libraries as - depending on the day - an archivist and/or a librarian, tackling wide-ranging subjects like data migration, Islandora implementation, digitization management, and library communications. She firmly believes that the best way to learn is to dive in headfirst - because there probably aren't any sharks in the water. Right?
Schedule
The schedule is a work in progress. Depending on the make-up of the campers, sessions might range from AtoM 101 for absolute beginners to command line tools to systems administration. We look forward to welcoming campers with a wide range of experience with AtoM!
Potential topics
The registration form allows campers to select some topics of interest from a pre-set list, which includes topics that we think will be of interest:
- AtoM 101 - beginner's guide to AtoM (or a helpful refresher if it's been a while!)
- Importing and exporting archival descriptions using CSV templates.
- Performing common tasks on the command line (importing, updating records, etc.).
- Customizing the front end through the web interface (menus, static pages, etc.).
- Maintenance and troubleshooting (sysadmins).
- Maintenance and troubleshooting (front-end users).
- Creating custom AtoM themes.
- Installation and deployment.
- Developing new features.
- Contributing to the AtoM documentation.
- Future of AtoM and/or project governance.
Is there something you think we're missing from the list? When you register, there will be a field to suggest any other topics you want us to cover. If there's a critical mass of people who want to discuss a particular topic, we'll cover it! During the camp, we'll also leave lots of space to adjust the schedule to give time to specific topics as they come up.
Day One - Tuesday, May 9
| Time | Main room - Dirac | Breakout room - Casltereagh |
| 9:00am - 9:30am | Arrival, sign-in, and setup | |
| 9:30am - 9:45am | Welcome
Introductions, code of conduct, agenda overview, etc. | |
| 9:45am - 10:45am | Introducing AtoM
This session is intended to ensure that everyone is on the same page and has a basic understanding of AtoM. We'll talk about the history of the project, hear about things to consider when selecting software, and get an overview of AtoM's main features. | |
| 10:45am - 11:00am | Break | |

Code of Conduct
The AtoM community is dedicated to providing a welcoming and positive experience for everyone, whether they are in a formal session or a social setting related to an AtoM event, or are taking part in activities online. AtoM community participants come from all over the world and bring with them a wide variety of professional, personal and social backgrounds; whatever these may be, we treat colleagues with dignity and respect. We are sensitive to the fact that the international nature of the AtoM community means that we span many different social norms around language and behaviour and we strive to conduct ourselves in ways that are unlikely to cause offense. In the event that someone’s conduct is causing offense or distress, the AtoM Camp has a detailed Anti-Harassment Policy, details below, which can be applied to address the problem.
The first step in dealing with any serious misconduct is to contact a member of the organizing group, or a counsellor at an AtoM Camp (please see counsellors, below). These people will be made known before and during any AtoM Camp event.
Anti-Harassment Policy
The AtoM community is dedicated to providing a harassment-free conference/camp experience for everyone. If you have been harassed, please consult this protocol for conflict resolution which makes clear how we can help.
The AtoM community has established the following policy to make it clear that we do not tolerate harassment in any form. Sexual or discriminatory language and imagery are not appropriate for any event venue, including talks, or any other communication channel used during the conference (such as social media).
Harassment includes:
- offensive verbal comments related to sex, gender, ethnicity, nationality, socioeconomic status, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, age, race, religion;
- sexual or discriminatory images in public spaces;
- deliberate intimidation;
- stalking;
- harassing photography or recording;
- sustained disruption of talks or other events;
- inappropriate physical contact; and
- unwelcome sexual attention.
The lingua franca of AtoM Camp is English; however, English may not be the native language of AtoM Camp participants. Further, cultural norms around what may be considered obscene and offensive communication will vary among AtoM Camp attendees. Campers are asked to please be mindful of the international character of AtoM Camp, and to use respectful and clear language free of slang to facilitate communication.
Participants asked to stop any harassing behavior are expected to comply immediately.
If a participant engages in harassing behavior, event organizers and AtoM representatives (or their designees) may take any action they deem appropriate, including warning the offender, expulsion from the AtoM Camp, or contacting a higher authority such as a representative from the offender’s institution.
If a participant raises a concern relating to actions covered by this policy in good faith, there will be no retaliation for bringing forward their concern. Threatening or taking action against someone for invoking this policy or for participating in any related investigation will be considered a violation of this policy.
Participants are expected to follow the anti-harassment policy at all Camp-related venues, Camp-related social events, and online communication channels
We expect attendees and speakers past and present to be respectful to each other, and we will deal with any incidents that arise, including on social media.
We value your participation in the AtoM community and your support in keeping the AtoM community a safe, welcoming, and friendly space for fellow participants.
Acknowledgments
This policy is based on the PASIG Code of Conduct, portions of which were modified from the Open Repositories’ code of conduct, which was itself modified from Seattle Attic’s code of conduct and the Ada Initiative’s event harassment policy.
