Attendees: Steven, Jason, Simeon, Greg

Regrets:

Discovery (WP3)

• BAM! WOW! (Browsing Across Music With Obtainable Wikidata)
  • 2023-09-21
    • BAM! WOW! work was developed, tested, and released (in August). There's early discussions about building on this work in future D&A sprints, e.g. 
      • Current SPARQL queries limit to English literals, and we wonder about bringing in other labels for certain cases. Also questions of what is being indexed in the authority record. Might lead to later refinements.
      • Steven will ask if/how much info buttons are being used to consider improvements and justifying cataloging work to make connections between datasets, e.g. LCNAF and Wikidata.
  • 2023-09-28
    • Steven working with Melissa to surface knowledge card info earlier in user experience. Need fix for popup that doesn't work well with screen readers. Mobile version has link that avoids problem, Steven looking at solutions used elsewhere. Expecting this to be resolved in current sprint
      • Info button usage stats as of 2023-09-25

        • Author info button

          Date range: 1/1/22-/12/31/22

          # of clicks on the pop-up button: 2,827 (total number of item record page views is over 1 million)

          # of clicks on the mobile author button: 154 (Note that on mobile the button doesn’t pop up, it takes you to the author info page, so we are tracking clicks separately.)

    • Discussing with Huda the choice between click-to-search, KP links, and what info buttons mean. Where is the sweet spot for flattening data on the page vs forcing more clicks to separate pages This is more of a research topic at the moment, maybe mockup and test
    • Steven attended Discovery Affinity Group meeting regarding the next phase of LUX

Linked-Data Authority Support (WP2)

• Qa Sinopia Collaboration - Meetings with Stanford will only occur on an as needed basis. Authority request issues: https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/projects/1 (prioritized based on "important" authorities and ease of completion)
  • Two sprints: 1^st Sprint - 9/25-10/6 / 2^nd Sprint - 10/30-11/10

  • 2023-09-28

    • Christina is getting into the code to figure out what’s available in the Samvera Gem for LC direct lookups. Apparently as written, it pulls in the label and an identifier, rather than a URI. Rather than override that in the gem, she’s going to build off of our direct lookup already in our instance of QA.

    • Set up stand-up for the duration of the Sprint to make sure we keep focus
    • Steven has set up a test template in Sinopia for new lookups when ready
• Best Practices for Authoritative Data working group (focus on Change Management)
  • 2023-09-28
    • Much activity on tidying

Shared Cataloging Explorations

• SWIB workshop write-up
  • Simeon to take a pass at a write-up
• DCMI presentation with Stanford

Other Topics

• POD & SHARE-VDE... should this team interact with that re: use cases, data analysis or other?
  
  • 2023-09-28 - Jim reached out with a bunch of questions recently - suggested he reach out to Cassalini. Seems work has not yet started
• FAST at CUL
  • 2023-09-28 - position paper drafted/ready; not yet shared administratively
• BIBFRAME Interoperability Group (BIG) - Steven Cornell rep
  • 2023-09-28 Steven is facilitating the SHACL DC TAPS WG, and thinking about workflows for the use of SHACL. Another group working on requirements with a focus on monographs. Another group working on PCC profiles spreadsheet for DC TAP, intention is that it stay human readable yet be translatable to SHACL. There is a prototype SHACL validator in Sinopia
