• dams: both dbgallery and pics.io offer and all-in-one service and cloud storage and i wanted to present that, pics.io has the edge in saving money via BYOS, but with the additional friction of you’re setting up cloud storage separately and there’s some level of maintenance (you make sure your DAMS can access the storage you’re buying) AND we’d be using wasabi rather than A3 outright
  • google drive a possibility Maybe but might be redundant/potential hazard of having all our files in one place/we are sharing with the entire museum/etc.
• discuss suffixes—r/v naming already implemented, Q and D makes sense to me
  • agreed that format is probably just information for the record not the object # itself
  • wrt gaps in numbering for physical storage, in a finding aid could we not have a note if there are related records elsewhere? here IS where keeping physical format names could be useful to point people toward related records of a different format and make it explicit (that they’re the same image)
  • agreed on the TMS naming ig
• ask q about protocol for any issues while they’re at the new building what’s the plan for if there’s a leak in hooks storage or the pipes in the building burst and freeze, also will there still be dept meetings, do i zoom in lol
• offer to help [checkout] in dec 2026
