Parallel Presentations (30 min)
- ArcLight
Darren Hardy, Stanford University
Update on ArcLight, an effort to build a Blacklight-based environment to support discovery (and digital delivery) of information in archives. - Collections Extensions and Admin Sets: Flexible approaches to grouping things in the repository
E. Lynette Rayle, Cornell University
An introduction to the Hyrax 2.1 Collections which include collections extensions, once known as Display Sets. This implementation adds the ability to define collection types with various settings to meet the many use cases for collections from user collections to exhibits. We'll also look at how these play nicely with Admin Sets. - Community models and authorities for Hyrax applications
Julie Allinson, CoSector at the University of London and Julie Hardesty, University of Indiana
Presentation on a gem for Hyrax models and authorities, which provides a central place for creating models for different types of works. Each new model draws on a central pot of properties to declare the set of properties needed to fully describe the particular work. The gem already exists and has sample models for journal article, thesis and more. In this presentation we will work through the process of defining a new model and then using that model in a Hyrax application. The idea behind the gem is to make it easier for developers to deploy new models, and provide a place for metadata folks to jointly define re-usable models.Indiana University - Developing a Staff-Only Samvera Application: Struggles and Successes
Trey Pendragon, Princeton University and James R. Griffin III, Princeton University
Princeton University Library has spent the last two years developing Plum as a staff-only ingest platform for books, manuscripts, geo-spatial data, and archived ephemera. This talk would go through a history of the design goals, the successes we've had, the problems we've run into, and a look into the future. - Documenting our Metadata Application Profiles (MAPS) Before Migration
Julie Hardesty, University of Indiana and University and Ruth Tillman, Penn State UniversityAs the Samvera Community prepares for migration, can we get a handle on the metadata we have and what we share with the community? Let's sit down together to document what we're saying about our objects, how we're expressing it and learn from others' ideas. Bring your weird and wild worst practices, build together toward better practices.Session goals would be: to provide a place to sit down and do the work together, talk about similarities or differences, and provide some context for what we do or don't want our MAPS to look like as we migrate to a new system. - How are people using workflows and Admin Sets in production Hyrax systems? bleep bloop
