This section of the wiki includes a list of AtoM-related community resources, beyond just what we maintain in our [https://www.accesstomemory.org/docs public documentation] - and much of it generated by members of our community! We've organized the content into sections to try to make it easier to browse.

In June 2014, [http://www.doaks.org/library-archives/icfa|The Image Collections and Fieldwork Archives (ICFA)] of Dumbarton Oaks Research Library and Collection announced the release of its AtoM Finding Aid Style Guide. "Developed by ICFA staff to document local practices for internal reference and training, the Guide addresses all aspects of description: from collection-level details such as creation and acquisition information to providing file-specific storage locations.  In addition, there are sections on developing an intellectual arrangement and devising titles for each record group in a collection.

"In advance of the department’s conversion of their legacy finding aids, ICFA staff also produced a workflow to help guide staff to the system. The Workflow provides step-by-step instructions on how to develop new collections in ICA-AtoM based on existing Word finding aids, and is intended to be used in conjunction with the Guide, a more comprehensive reference resource for description."

==University of Witwatersrand, South Africa 3-Day AtoM 2.0 Workshop==

__TOC__
  
In October 2013, a 3-Day AtoM workshop was conducted in Johannesburg, South Africa.
 
  
Hosted by the University of Witwatersrand and organized by Michele Pickover and Gabriele Mohale, the 3-day workshop had over 30 participants from 16 different institutions, including the University of Namibia, Desmond Tutu Peace Centre, and the National Archives. The workshop was aimed at introducing and exploring AtoM 2.0 as a multi-lingual open-source application for online archival description and arrangement in single and multi-institutional portals. Training on AtoM was provided for all participants and addressed the features and functions of the software for public users, archivists and administrators. The workshop materials were created using copies of archival records held by organizations all over Ontario, which were generously supplied by the Archives Association of Ontario. The archival records are available through [http://www.archeion.ca/| ARCHEION]. ''You are free to use the manuals for your own purposes.''

===[[Community/Community resources/Customization|Customization]]===
In August 2011 a two-day training workshop on ICA-AtoM 1.1 was presented in Curaçao and attended by members of the ICA's Caribbean section (CARBICA). In preparation for the workshop a demo version of ICA-AtoM was created using copies of archival records held by the Rare Books and Special Collections (RBSC) at the University of British Columbia Library. To encourage learning and support new users in their discovery of ICA-AtoM open-source software for archival description, a CARBICA training manual with 10 tutorials was created. The tutorials in the booklet allow users to interact with the data in the CARBICA demo version of ICA-AtoM.
