Agenda:
Annamarie and Emma will be around for the next year as facilitators!
Roadmaps Alignment Group Update
Lots of interest in sharing how we are using Bulkrax. Should do something! Working on promoting it outside of Samvera labs
Waiting on the Dev congress to finalize anything
Recent discussion about nested metadata on Samvera Metadata Slack - Margaret Kibi
Qualifications on metadata properties, example is from the creator
Most people just use MODS terms
Margaret has used hierarchy in the dates, Fedora
Nested notes were also used
Valkyrie supports nested metadata better (though the migration is of course challenging), very easy to define the data and give it a type
Challenges - Hyrax doesn’t have capabilities for nested metadata in the user side
Build on M3 spec
Will be doing something at Samvera connect!
Planning Accessibility roundtable for February 2024
If interested in presenting, please let Annamarie and Emma know
Julie might have something to talk about at IU - looking at automating accessibility. Will get a report of things that need to be addressed
Repository Managers were discussing accessibility yesterday. Alt-text in iiif viewer. More of a iiif issue, but could be good to touch base and see where that is
If anyone else has presentation ideas, or has something they would like to learn about, please share your hopes
OAI Documentation Working Group Update
Show draft documentation to SMIG for any and all feedback, can make comments in the draft or email Annamarie (klose.16@osu.edu) by October 15.
Goal is to put it on the wiki because it will be a living, breathing document
Setting up OAI using blacklight at the moment because that is the information they have to share.
Margaret is using OAI, but it is configured differently and uses a different service. *thinks* it is the ruby blacklight plugin but not configured the same way
Hoping for it to be good enough and go from there
Open Discussion
Reminders:
Samvera Connect 2023 is October 23-26 in Philadelphia. Not too late to register! On the end of the day on Tuesday there will be time for break out sessions which will allow some further discussions as they arise
Consequently, there will be no October SMIG meeting.
Next meeting: November 28, 2-3pm Eastern
