  1.   Guidelines and Members’ Contribution
  • Guidelines

– Individual Members’ contribution: time table, frequency of updates
– Registers and Catalogues database format and interface for online cross-references–to be linked to the SAH WiA AG Commons platform and the sah.org site
– Networks, Archives, Libraries, and Museums database– to include weblinks, (key words?), comments, a particular focus of interest
– Students’ participation: ideas

  • Committee Members

– Barbara Ann Opar—leadership on sorting out SAH reference pages: Booklists and Exhibition Catalog Lists (sah.org) and creating two Biblio Catalogues: published 1/by women; 2/about women; students’ participation
– Nina Stritzler-Levine—Registers Committee Calendar of Events initiative; Annmarie Adams reference: BEAT (beatoronto.com)
– Meg B. Vickery—Committee nexus to integrate lists, will be receiving-retaining all submissions for further organization, Anna—collect submissions and expedite to designated theme leader
– Gül Kale—sort out Digital Resources | Society of Architectural Historians (sah.org)
– Laura Sánchez Carrasco and Meral Ekincioglu—please email your ideas to Barbara or Anna, and collected lists to Meg
– Alicia Imperiale—(Anna): when creating the Register of Networks (including weblinks and particular interests), would you include AIA WIAs (state and regional), also our group officer Priya Jain referred to Women In Design Group – AIA. A general research women design group – Google Search provides with countless references and your expertise is needed to sort out through these collectives

  1.   Queries and Discussion
  • Intellectual Property, List of Donors, List of Individual Collections

If adopting authored collections, including our own, should the Committee honor them as gifts to the SAH WiA AG community?  These lists entail time, effort and talent and, though not copyrighted, can be termed as intellectual property.  Should we compose the list of donors, and not only create an integral themed database but retain the original authored resource lists as well?

  • Funding Opportunities for this Project

Budgeting, consulting with the SAH Office, grant applications—discussion postponed
