We're excited to announce the first-ever AtoM Camp, cohosted by the Simon Fraser University 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.

Dates & Location
March 20-22, 2017 - Harbour Centre at Simon Fraser University
Harbour Centre is located in downtown Vancouver, BC and is part of SFU's Vancouver campus. It's convenient to transit and is within easy walking distance of many hotels, restaurants, and Vancouver's historic Gastown neighbourhood.
Camp Counsellors
At all of the camps that Artefactual hosts, we seek to provide a diversity of experience with the software. Supplementing members of the Artefactual crew will be counsellors who have extensive experience with AtoM as users and administrators. Sit tight for counsellor announcements!
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!
Day One
On the morning of Day One we'll ensure that everyone is comfortable with AtoM, whether they're archivists, developers, or systems administrators.
The afternoon of Day One will be spent looking into some specific AtoM topics. This may be something like import/export for archivists, theme development for developers, or infrastructure for sysadmins. During registration, campers will be given the opportunity to suggest topics of interest.
Evening social event: small sign-up group dinners
Day Two
On Day Two, both the morning and afternoon will be spent looking at specific AtoM topics, again decided by campers.
Evening social event: big group dinner
Day Three
Depending on camper interest, Day Three might take the shape of an unconference, where attendees can propose topics to discuss. It could also be a continuation of the previous two days. It's up to you!
Note: Day Three will end early to accommodate travel schedules.
Registration
Professional rate: $450.00
Student rate: $350.00 (10 available)
Registration will be done through Eventbrite (or similar) and is forthcoming.
Hotels, travel, etc.
Forthcoming.
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.
