Announcement: It Takes A Village Open-Source Software Sustainability Toolkit and New Website Launch
We are excited to announce the launch of the It Takes a Village (ITAV) Open-Source Software Sustainability toolkit<https://itav.lyrasis.org/toolkit/> and new website<https://itav.lyrasis.org/>. The ITAV in Practice Toolkit<https://itav.lyrasis.org/toolkit/> is an adaptable set of tools that enables all stakeholders in an open-source software (OSS) program to participate in an assessment of each facet of sustainability, develop balanced strategies to advance sustainability goals and integrate sustainability plans into other organizational planning efforts. This work builds on the previous It Takes a Village Open-Source Software Guidebook, created with the support of the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS). The new website — itav.lyrasis.org<https://itav.lyrasis.org/> — includes the guidebook, toolkit, and community case studies. You can see the full announcement and acknowledgements for all those who gave so generously of their thoughts and time here<https://lyrasisnow.org/it-takes-a-village-itav-in-practice-toolkit-and-website/>.
