The goal of Samvera Camp is to introduce new developers to the skills and tools they will need to successfully build Samvera-based digital repository solutions. There’s a lot of ground to cover and you won’t walk away at the end of the week a complete expert, but we hope we’ll have provided you enough of a scaffolding to jump-start your own work and keep learning like the rest of us. We hope that the topics covered at Samvera Camp provide enough breadcrumbs that you’ll have a good idea where to start looking once you get home and start digging into problems on your own!
