  • Huda Khan - Schedule usability work. Will forward tasks draft to group and to Kevin/Usability Working group today
    • 2020-06-12 Met with Kevin and usability group on Monday. Agreement to do think-aloud and have reps interested in participating, might also get folks from access services. Plan to get tests done by June 25 giving time to create a report 
    • 2020-06-22 Three usability tests scheduled Monday + Tuesday
    • 2020-06-26 Five usability tests completed, usability report forthcoming
  • Huda Khan - To make slides and such to go through indexing approach, compared with client-side only, lessons learned, etc. 
    • 2020-06-22 Started slides here
      • What about cases with many variants? All are added to the bucket field but only those matching the query are shown as `aka`
      • Why have a combined bucket field rather than searching multiple fields? Provides simple way to search although current implementation searches label and bucket fields to enable matches on the label to be boosted. Also the bucket field has special matching criteria such as start of word, which isn't the case for all fields we might be interested in
    • 2020-06-26 Slides to be completed early next week as part of documentation for project

Status updates and planning

  • Enhanced Discovery - WHAM! (see also https://wiki.duraspace.org/x/sJI7Bg and https://github.com/LD4P/discovery/projects/1)
    • See: Organizing doc and Pseudonym thought. Updates also on running notes page
    • Updates from Dev chat meeting
    • Usability -  Document with testing plans. Slides with tasks and examples
    • Huda worked in incorporating knowledge panels for people/subject/etc. – demo
      • Note descriptions from wikidata are added to authors for example to help disambiguate. What is the description is very long? Current UI would expand width and then wrap as necessary? They seem mostly to be fairly short but we might want to force truncation for something that is long
      Tim worked on rspec tests, now completed and pushed into dev: Wrap up work.  Working on some remaining bugs, hoping to address by Tuesday (and if not, will document what remains to be done).  Lessons learned draft started.  Also brief indexing script documentation (for how to run the script). WHAM! demo video segments to be done by: indexing (Huda - Friday), controller front-end (Tim - Monday), packaging (John - Monday).  
    • John worked on packaging, is moving Tim's code into nectarguide. Have decide not to adopt to use twitter typeahead but instead a more direct move.
  • Authority Lookups for Sinopia (Lookup infrastructure: https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/projects/2, Authority requests: https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/projects/1)
    • Lynette has mostly been focusing on exhibits. Dave is working on performance improvements to eliminate SPARQL quest after matches for LOC. Still have Steven's additional tests, want to see how capitalization tests work and should have same results – hope to get these set up this week
  • Linked Data API Working Group
  • LD4P3 Planning
    • Stanford functional requirements document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/18H6zYGwKuCg3SZqm9Q_cxkZThcdmBjknE6HdtQ-RRzk/edit#heading=h.4fu64x8jzm6e
      • Possible relationship to entity management work in FOLIO
      • How much full LD vs linky-MARC?
      • CUL LTS working group is hoping to add URIs to MARC before FOLIO migration as a substitute for some of the heading management we do in Voyager in other ways. Perhaps won't be done ahead of switch but as part of the data migration. Considering how to update/maintain going forward
      • 2020-06-05 Agree that doing some analysis/write-up for the Cornell context would be good, ACTION for July
