The 2012 BAS Colloquium was held August 8, 2012 at SAA's 76th Annual Meeting in San Diego, California. We held a World Café-style meeting with member facilitators-led, interactive group discussions of three different topics: Social Media, Archiving Websites and Managing e-Records.
The BAS Steering Committee goals for this year’s Colloquium were three-fold:
But we also wanted to share the discussions with our members unable to attend the SAA annual meeting, invite additional comments and keep the discussion going throughout the year. So during the Colloquium volunteer scribes captured the highlights from our lively conversations, taking the hand written notes from the groups. However, converting them into a useful and easy to understand format turned into a bigger challenge than we had originally thought. Thanks to Linda Edgerly of the Winthrop Group and her staff we have come up with a chart format that provides the main information from each of the three topics discussed at the Colloquium.
We realize this is not perfect, but it was the best way we could find to share what was discussed at the Colloquium with all members. These notes are only accessible by BAS members and should be used solely as a reference and learning tool. Please do not repost externally.
Following are notes compiled from each of the featured topics:
We also have audiovisual material from the Colloquium, showing each group facilitator giving a summary of the best takeaways from the session. Links go to YouTube:

It’s really interesting to read about the BAS Colloquium and how professionals were already discussing topics like social media, website archiving, and managing electronic records back in 2012. These issues have become even more relevant today as the amount of digital information continues to grow every year. Collaborative events like this are very valuable because they allow specialists to share ideas, discuss challenges, and find practical solutions together. It also shows how quickly the digital world evolves and how important it is to adapt to new technologies and platforms. In many industries, including online entertainment and gaming, digital platforms are constantly improving and expanding. For example, modern online platforms such https://trueluck-global.com/ show how services can be built to provide accessible and engaging experiences for users worldwide.
why the secrecy about these resources?

I'm new to the BAS and maybe this isn't the right forum for this, but why the secrecy about these resources? I understand that there might be some legal issues at play but it seems that things could have been structured in a way to any avoid trouble and I definitely think there would be interest outside of BAS. Just curious.
