Notes

1- Additional items for the agenda?  no additional items and kicked off 11:30, 32 people attended 

2- Demo of Deep Blue Data from University of Michigan Libraries

          Nebeela Jaffer introduced Jake Carlson who demonstrated the service. The demo recording will be made available. A few things to note are: 1) the service is actually two systems - pen for docs and one for data in addition to ICPSR which is on campus as well, 2) they use Globus for stable, secure, persistent large data downloads 3) interoperability - Restful APIs for access other than the UI of the web application. 4- The team reports under the publishing arm (which is under the Library). 4) There are plans to contribute back the analytics work. 5) If a dataset is over 3GB is being downloaded, Globus download is the only option but Globus can also be used to upload/ingest data to Deep Blue Data (DBD) 6)Notch8 is working to provide Globus Up/Down for Rutgers based on the work from UNich and Duke. The resulting gem will be contributed back to the community.

3-Overview of Steering Group winter retreat discussions (Rosalyn Metz)

SG met in January. 1) Several potential fiscal sponsors presented and used a rubric to evaluate the fiscal sponsors. SG will put out a recommendation in a few weeks along with the rubric used. 2) Julie Alinson Award was discussed 3) Fundraising efforts were reviewed and further proposals were discussed in particular a IMLS proposal to further develop Hyrax. 4) Explored member/partner benefits
