The TARO Steering Committee is currently reviewing the 2022-2025 Strategic Plan and will soon be sharing specific charges soon.
We’re currently trying to touch base with our TARO subcommittees to get a handle on how our existing structure can be improved. Please reach out if you have further questions about subcommittees.
We also hope to feature more repository news on this website. If you would like your repository featured, please reach out to us!
The annual TARO Brown Bag will be held during the Society of Southwest Archivists’ Annual Meeting, May 7-10, 2025. This virtual event will offer updates on TARO initiatives as well as an opportunity to give feedback and ask questions.
