Private/Work Rooms
 
The Star Café also has “private” or “work” rooms where access is limited to invited members for collaborative interaction. Such rooms are where document development and task specific discussions can take place out of public view.

Community Rooms
 
The Star Café has a series of “rooms” set up for the members of various “communities” to interact. Each room is a web accessible ‘site’ operating in the Microsoft SharePoint collaborative software environment. In general, Community Rooms are “open to the public” (anonymous access) for reading.

Link Lists

The Community Room Directory (as seen at the right) is a grouped link list, so you can look for certain types of community rooms, instead of a whole list.
  • Advocacy:  AFSC programs and activist community sites
  • Education:  Documentation and instruction rooms
  • Inside AFSC:  AFSC regions, departments, committees, and other working groups.

Room Leadership
 

Each room has an owner and/or a moderator.

  • The owner has the ultimate say on room content, community membership, and public access.
  • The moderator is in charge of room ‘décor’ and logistics
