Subgroup Reports
- MODS and RDF Descriptive Metadata Subgroup
  - Still actively working; made way through couple of major developments--title, etc., will do subject and a few others--closing in on final review. Will meet mid-September and finish up fairly soon.
- URI Selection Working Group
  - One submission so far (Ruth) and it looks great. A few questions came up related to MARC. Meeting with Karen E. and Mark B. to develop
    - Not charged with pursuing MARC, but may do so--difficult to say right now.
    - Use to be ALA group called MARBI to request MARC changes but not sure what it is now http://www.ala.org/alcts/mgrps/cmtes/jnt-marbi Now -- http://www.ala.org/lita/about/committees/Jnt-meta
    - https://www.loc.gov/marc/mac/index.html (MARC development, w/ link to proposals being considered)
  - https://github.com/samvera-labs/uri_selection_wg/issues (see ‘Promulgating Body’)
Issues/Questions
Topics
- SMIG Scope & Objectives
  - Have gotten some suggestions, edits. Issue with developing/charging Working Groups is not spelled out--wouldn’t hurt to explicitly state that SMIG can/will.
  - Sunsetting issue--originally said if no meeting for 6 months, but may need to amend/change.
- GitHub questions
  - Proposal to change mapping of required metadata property:keyword - https://github.com/samvera/hyrax/issues/1505
    - Jen proposed this. When doing local mapping for repo, Hyrax had mapped keywords to DC relations, which is incorrect. Investigated but could only find schema.org keywords. Proposed in github after talking with Mike Giarlo. Uncertain what next step is--possibly Samvera Tech call, but Jen isn’t sure how developer side works and how to get on agenda, etc.
    - Migration task may need to be created which will complicate matters.
    - This will HAVE to be done at Northwestern.
    - Likely talking to Mike Giarlo again is best way to move this forward. Julie can also bring it up with him.
    - Similar-ish scope ticket: https://github.com/samvera/hyrax/issues/589 (this requires changing object values instead of predicates)
  - work.is_part_of metadata attribute usage in forms conflicts with AdminSet behavior - https://github.com/samvera/hyrax/issues/1461
    - Julie noted this. Using DC terms to connect object to admin set and trying to find something else to use than DC terms. Object to admin set is getting in way of doing object to object connection.
    - DCE realized this & brought it up.
    - Alex-going to use local predicate and then farm it out later (maybe?)
    - John--perhaps creating/adding more sub-predicates/properties may be an option, but has only glanced at ticket.
    - Julie--may be good to share with Lynette as they’re currently working on Collection set/extension.
  - Collections: Modify model to include Collection Type and settings method - https://github.com/samvera/hyrax/issues/1383
    - This is closed; what was decided after discussions and went with schema additional types instead of RDF type because RDF type can’t be changed whereas schema additional type does allow for modification in Hyrax.
- Samvera Connect metadata sessions
  - SMIG will hopefully have in-person meeting (separate from what’s being suggested).
  - Ruth & Julie are also suggesting an active meeting of sorts to work on metadata documentation--perhaps 2 hour session. Discussed with Documentation Working Group, but may follow framework of their documenting how to document for developers, but also want to go beyond that and collection existing documentation.
  - Variety of other suggested talks that involve metadata.
  - They are still accepting suggestions, so if you have one, please do so soon.
Informing from other IG/WG
- Newspapers IG
