I'm pretty familiar with VRA Core: at RISD we use it to publish nearly all of our digital collections from Archives, Special Collections, and Visual Resources departments in the library. Feel free to contact me directly, mpompeli@risd.edu.

Best,
Mark

Good question. SCHED allows you to choose your own timezone. Selecting Eastern (Daylight) has our meeting starting at 5pm. Kelin's message states 4pm Eastern (Standard, which is an error). So does it start at 4pm or 5pm EDT?

Thanks,

Mark

Thanks for starting and continuing this discussion.
