  • https://github.com/LD4P/discovery/projects/2 for issues etc. 
  • Draft of a discovery plan: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zKYW7FQVVNvyd0XjjW0qWznX9PC3jbmOE6Kz_yygPjs/edit?usp=sharing
  • Research: how to go from knowledge graph to an index
  • DASH! (Displaying Authorities Seamlessly Here)
  • BANG! (Bibliographic Aspects Newly GUI'd)
    • Jamboard link
    • Expect to include Works. Need to do something beyond what we already have live from the OCLC concordance data.
    • 2021-11-12:
      • Huda revisiting item view integration, included "online" field info and indicate (for debugging) whether related works coming in from PCC ISBN or LCCN relationships, etc. Began work on LOC Hubs in this page, some debugging, and thinking about how to bring this information back so it connects to catalog results.  Also need to revisit work to work relationships (have a data file and will bring this in for viewing later). 
      • Steven researching IMDB and Dune : )
        • Though we don't have the movie in our collection yet, Dune (2021) it's a pretty good example for BANG because it's based on a book, but unfortunately for us IMDB's mission isn't to plug books in their RDF (no schema:isBasedOn assertions). I think we might still want to consider whether to incorporate schema:image, schema:trailer (embed or link out), schema:description (though in some cases we might have summary notes for movies in our bibs already).
        • Ratings and reviews are interesting to consider... I doubt some librarians would be open to opinions being added to our descriptions, but I remember reading a little while back that the Vet Library was actively collecting for pleasure movies, etc. for students to help with supporting belonging, stress, campus life. As someone trying to view a movie from that perspective ratings, reviews, and trailers are helpful.
        • It's not in the schema block, but we might be able to recreate the more like this part of the IMDB page. Which is a little more work-to-work BANG-like.
        • There is really great data in Wikidata and IMDB, but not finding a shared identifier for each example in our catalog. If we think this is worth pursuing (we should confirm if browsing/pleasure viewing is a use case), we might have to rely on "fuzzy" matching, similar to the Discogs work when there is no id.

      • Steven has asked Wendy W about patron habits around pleasure viewing and whether we might add information (ratings, trailers, reviews, etc.) to catalog

Linked-Data Authority Support (WP2)

...

  • Github branch renaming
  • Sinolio - Sinopia-FOLIO
    • 2021-11-05 - Retrospective for 2 week sprint today, some discussion around expected UI. Expect to engage in new sprint which will stand up new FOLIO instance for this work19 - no updates, expect metadata mgmt update to FOLIO community in December
  • OCLC Linked Data / Entities Advisory Group2021-11-05 Lynette involved in meeting with John Chapman to discuss integration.  "meeting with OCLC to look at integrations of Sinopia/QA with their entity backbone via their new API platform"  Meeting will include most of the Sinopia team.  Not clear who will attend on the OCLC side.
    • 2021-11-19 Moved away from Wikibase, could mean they reuse properties (at least rdf:type, rdfs:label, etc.) There will be a subscription for accessing the editor, and APIs. Not part of the cataloger subscription, but expect news soon(?) about going live and pricing models. LOD with will be published/dereferenceable . Asked how they would justify the extra cost... they believe there’s a value for libraries to contribute data so that it’s shared.  There's another round of testing.
  • ISNI - made a soft launch of LOD this week. Shhh... they are providing data dumps now, dereferenceable LOD sometime in 2022. https://isni.org/page/linked-data/
  • PCC 
    • 2021-10-27 Definitions and non-RDA examples in MARC examples continued to shift, but should be able to finalize the spreadsheet that generates the RDF today.
    • 2021-11-0419 - Nothing new to report.
  • Authorities in FOLIO
    • 2021-11-04 Laura, Julia, Jenn and Steven met this week to discuss getting URIs in our MARC records. We're going to try to abide by the same decisions reflected in OCLC's export options for URIs. Because every imaginable process for getting URIs relies on string matching we're meeting again next week to define scope and matching algorithms so that we're not adding a bunch of bad URIs.
    • 2021-11-19 Julia walked group through what deletes would take in the current plan, it would be challenging to do this using a combination of Blacklight, Connexion, and FOLIO. Jenn and Nick suggested thinking about FOLIO authorities app (to keep us in FOLIO for search, copying, and editing in BIBs), timeline for EBSCO work on authorities app is ingest/search in Lotus (April)
