Discovery (WP3)
- https://github.com/LD4P/discovery/projects/2 for issues etc.
- Draft of a discovery plan: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zKYW7FQVVNvyd0XjjW0qWznX9PC3jbmOE6Kz_yygPjs/edit?usp=sharing
- Research: how to go from knowledge graph to an index
- Research decision points, Use cases
- First goal: DASH! dashboard (full page for entity) that extends on the idea of an embedded knowledge panel, aim to have functional prototype for end of year
- DASH! (Displaying Authorities Seamlessly Here)
- Dashboard design meeting kickoff notes - will also try to understand what our data will support or connections to other data sources

- Usability testing for DASH
- 2021-04-16 - Usability testing is underway, will finish next week. Useful input on what users see/understand and what they struggle with. Users don't know what a repository is, can guess what digital collections means. Users tend to think that the author name link will get more information, don't see/understand info button – could mean adding tool tips and/or making button more obvious or even flip button/link or one link for info+search
- 2021-04-23 - Five people helped with usability tests. Setting up final results document. High level:
- Uncertainty of info button vs author link (or lack of understanding if same/separate). Tim has created issue in D&A
- Good understanding of author page in general, opportunities for some clarification in labeling etc., influences tab well understood
- On subject page the timeline scroll/zoom fast creating interaction problems, broader/narrower mixed understanding (difficult when subject is an event), "show all subject" checkbox not found easily, timeline/map connection was understood
- 2021-04-30
- Writing up usability test results
- 2021-05-07
- Nearly done! Tabulation across participants
- Will be adding recommendations as github issues: https://github.com/LD4P/discovery/projects/2 and work on straightforward issues in the next month
- User reps D&A meeting: Expect next follow-up in August
- Slides: from user reps meeting 2021-04-09 and result was "not no"
- Positive feedback on linking back to catalog results
- Questions about links and display from wikidata, other sources
- End was to discuss more in August with possible discussion of how to move into production
- User reps have slides and wanted demo link
- Could have lite KP might to start, possible later entity pages – or perhaps both together
- 2021-04-23 How much more work to do before August? Candidates:
- Follow up on results from usability tests
- Work on how smoothly the prototype works
- Think about more consistent look between pages - Tim thinking of making some mockups of redesign
- 2021-04-30
- Working on a list of tasks for the final refinements stage. Includes aligning look & feel of the entity pages, Tim is looking into this. Current subject pages optimized for things with date ranges, what do we do for subjects without date ranges (e.g. microbiology)?
- Slides: from user reps meeting 2021-04-09 and result was "not no"
- Video for DASH!, theme?
- Sonic? Roadrunner?
- BANG! (Bibliographic Aspects Newly GUI'd)
- Expect to include Works. Need to do something beyond what we already have live from the OCLC concordance data.
- Full OCLC concordance us 343M rows, and gzipped the file is 3.3GB
- SVDE Works
