Notes

  1. Born Digital
    1. Amazon S3 functional on prod, will be on staging this afternoon
      1. Staging will be copied to prod, after which real production migrations can be done on prod
    2. Pushing out an updated i8 site install to clients - probably on Thursday
    3. Looking into an issue with media files
    4. No immediate plans to update to Drupal 9
  2. Alan
    1. Submitted a fix to Workbench related to EDTF dates
    2. Latest version of Workbench uses Drupal rather than Islandora endpoints which are more robust
      1. This requires Drupal 9 but it will fallback to Islandora endpoints in the case of Drupal 8
      2. Workbench can be run locally or on the server
        1. Typically, running Workbench downloads from I7 then pushes to I8/I9
        2. Ideally we could just provide a URL to the I8/I9 site to eliminate a step
  3. Whitman
    1. Checking and testing objects on staging site
      1. Encountered some issues with metadata display and OCR
      2. Search on OCR text not currently working
        1. Basic HTML filtering may be preventing this
        2. Waiting for estimate on access controls
    2. Preparing for production migration
      1. Does resource type need to be capitalized?
        1. No
      2. Work type maps to resource type
    3. Newspaper zoom settings
      1. Current example doesn't zoom in far enough
    4. Still image vs. image
      1. Still image for resource type, image for content model
    5. URLs
      1. Should we use the title for the URL
        1. For most items it doesn't matter
        2. For theses, the BePress URL was used via alias
        3. Theses also have Handles'
    6. Test ingests
      1. Need to test a few more collections
      2. Theses, oral histories, newspapers
        1. Test newspapers and benchmark ingest speed
        2. Benchmarking OCR generation
    7. RDF fields
      1. How are new fields mapped?
      2. Some new fields are not showing up in the mapping
