- DAG Calls
- 2023-01-12 - There is in fact a meeting 1/17. Will go over coordination, roles, topics for the new year.
- Question: Still using the Cornell Zoom URL for 1/17. The Zoom needs to be started by someone with a Cornell email (no external hosts allowed), so will need to determine what the Zoom URL will be 1/31 (meeting after 1/17) onwards.

Linked-Data Authority Support (WP2)
- Qa Sinopia Collaboration - Meetings with Stanford will only occur on an as needed basis. Authority request issues: https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/projects/1 (prioritized based on "important" authorities and ease of completion)
- 2023-01-05
- Steven added sections to the "Less reliance on caching" planning document to account for heavy Sinopia Users (Nat. Library of Norway and University of Washington). Each has a slightly different emphasis in terms of lookups.
- Broadly speaking we have the following questions:
- With no plan for a continued cache for Getty, do we want to look into Getty APIs?
- Dave is going to refresh MESH for 2023. Do we need a plan for after 2023? Their model/queries are a little more complicated than others, size is relatively big.
- RDA is made up of a bunch of very small static vocabularies. How low can we rely on Dave’s existing cache for these?
- Do we add these as static lookups in QA?
- For LOC vocabularies, what plan needs to be in place for switching to LOC APIs? E.g. Data will be more up to date, but it will lack the same context.
- Can we add “direct” lookups through QA?
- ISNI and DBpedia are large dynamic datasets. Would we consider direct lookups for these?
- Big Question: Do we rely on separate data source APIs? Or add “direct” lookups in QA?
- 2023-01-13
- Steven has done as much as he can for now on document
- We should plan to share our information with colleagues at Stanford well before trip
- PLAN to review 2023-01-19 and then share
- 2023-01-05
- Best Practices for Authoritative Data working group (focus on Change Management)
- 2023-01-12
- Need some wordsmithing on order recommendation
- Reached out to Dave to see if he needs help.
- Steven rescheduled the meeting to 2023-01-17. Reviewing issues now to start discussions in Slack prior, hoping to make decisions in meetings.
- Asking around about whether/how/can we expect the rumored RDF SRS in FOLIO to be ActivityStreams aware.
- Need some wordsmithing on order recommendation
- 2023-01-12
- Containerizing the QaServer - Initial work done, still exploring migration from CloudFormation to Terraform
- 2023-01-05 Sticking with CloudFormation for now
- Containerizing the Cache Indices
- 2022-11-17 No plan to move on this at present
Other Topics
- POD & SHARE-VDE... should this team interact with that re: use cases, data analysis or other?
- 2023-01-12: created some draft use cases for POD with which the POD Board may or may not agree. The assessment group is now on-hold until an MOU is signed between POD and SHARE-VDE.
- Sinolio - Sinopia-FOLIO
- Plans for future work will depend on Stanford meeting outcomes
- Entity Management in FOLIO
- 2023-01-12 - environmental scan work is wrapped for the moment until we need more investigation. Use case dev has been a bit slow to take off - group is increasing in size and we are actively working to align with efforts underway between LC and EBSCO
- CUL Authorities in FOLIO
- 2022-11-17 Still planning how to add URIs to MARC, strategizing automated changes to bibs (e.g. closing dates) that are automatable, will accelerate getting through the backlog and inform adding URIs process.
- 2022-12-07 Piloting adding URIs for firm orders using MARCEdit and batch processing during authority maintenance processes. If successful, will expand to other workflows (including documentation and reflecting in procedures)
- BIBFRAME Interoperability Group (BIG) - Steven Cornell rep and Jason alternate
- 2022-10-27: They are joining for summit. Little to report at present otherwise.
- 2023-01-12: Met this week to go over Sinopia use of SHACL as a validating strategy. During the meeting there was a nice iteration on existing shapes based on clearer understanding of data needs. National Library of Sweden demoed their implementation of https://www.w3.org/2005/04/fresnel-info/.
Huda departure planning
- LD4P videos and channel
- Have asked Phil to follow up with Sean Taylor so Phil can get set up as video mage for the CUL-IT channel . If anyone else from this group would also like the ability to upload/modify video, please talk to Sean Taylor.
- TODO: Put the original uploads in Box somewhere and share with Steven,
- Update: I found one recording for BANG and uploaded. Now that Steven is the new CUL-IT video manager, he should be able to download the videos directly from youtube and then upload to the Box folder.
- LD4P3 Usability recordings
- Box folders shared with Steven already so should hopefully will continue to exist. Will need to be removed by end of the grant but can remain for reference
- LD4P3 Github: will continue to exist
- Just added Simeon as admin for https://github.com/LD4P/discovery and https://github.com/LD4P/blacklight-cornell (Greg is already admin for the latter).
- LD4P3 web deployment: Can document (in confluence?) so someone can get to it if they need to. (Will just set up a Google doc for now and share with.. Steven? Greg? Simeon?)
- D & A pull request for Wikidata image licensing: Need to do still
- DAG: Anyone wanting to be co-chair from Cornell? Any suggestions for folks?
- Current zoom is a Cornell one
- Huda VM and other server infrastructure
- Code on github and/or folder
- ACTION - Huda to put PCC and Jim's POD data extract in box and make Steven owner
- ACTION - Huda to do final check

- Begin envisioning a new collaboration model so we can define ways to provision for that
- Who else should be part of discussion: Laura, Jenn, Mary, Simeon, Steven, Jason
