Status updates and planning

  • Blacklight LD @ Stanford
    • Awesome organization by Jessie and Huda, attendees needed lots of support and facilitation after 2.5 days, only a few people stayed for the half of the 4th day
    • Both Jessie, Mark, Chris (Stanford) and Huda are going to BL meeting next week and will take ideas forward
    • Succeeded in synthesizing scenarios with a good mix of BL and other folks (e.g. Vufind, EBSCO, Ghent autocomplete)
    • Specific suggestion to implement schema.org beyond microdata to have a JSON-LD serialization as focus of BL output
    • Outputs
  • Prep for Cataloging Sinatra and other 45's (Discogs data, https://github.com/ld4p/qa_server/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3ADiscogs)
    • ON HOLD pending more work in Sinopia to import data. Sinopia work cycle 2 will we hope include the ability to read in RDF back from Trellis. We hope that we can leverage this to import RDF from a lookup in Discogs or ShareVDE
    • Had kick-off meeting on Wednesday (Oct 2) and will follow up with a review of BIBFRAME and how it will be used for this work, and training around the tooling. Catalogers has accounts with Sinopia etc.. Steven adding Sinatra training material to the Sinopia drive space, immediate feedback is that some understanding of the model is required to be able to think about things like work vs instance title
