Abstract
A Carpentries institutional membership can help an organization build a program of recurring workshops teaching computing and data tools and skills. However, little guidance is available for starting and sustaining a Carpentries membership. This qualitative case study examines the first five years, 2015-2020, of the University of Oklahoma's institutional Carpentries membership. The study explores the institution's Carpentries activities, membership workflows, multi-unit sponsorship, and perceived value by membership participants. Carpentries membership operations are labor-intensive and demand intention to balance employee and volunteer labor. Individuals value the welcoming instructor community a membership can help create. Carpentries philosophy can conflict with university priorities. Carpentries memberships should be run using the same practices as Carpentries workshops.
