Agenda & Notes
Review actions from 2020-02-14 Cornell LD4P2 Meeting notes
...
- Discovery presentation on 3/3: what is agenda? who is speaking? who is announcing to CUL?
- Goal is to disseminate our week and then get some feedback about what might be promising
- We need to have a way to take good notes – designate a note taker
- View from staff involved with virtual libraries would be interesting, also D&A user reps
- Need to be careful about managing expectations for stage this work is at and what might happen or not going forward
- ACTION - Jason to write up, circulate and then send out on Tuesday – was DONE
- ACTION - Huda Khanto collect everyone involved next week week to plan the session, review on 2/28
- Cataloging Sinatra and other 45's (Discogs data, https://github.com/ld4p/qa_server/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3ADiscogs)
- Lookups for place not usable and hence places are not being recorded, relies on work from Dave to fix: https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/issues/248 & https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/issues/240
- Have a currently insurmountable issue with nested profiles. When create Work profile with nested Instance profile there isn't a URI for the Instance (it just gets hung from a bnode). Without a URI the title of the Instance doesn't get indexed. The Sinopia team are unable to fix this in the near term.
- Cataloging work continues with the above limitations
- Enhanced Discovery (see also https://wiki.duraspace.org/x/sJI7Bg and https://github.com/LD4P/discovery/projects/1)
- SMASH! (dev to run through 7 Feb, then user testing, video and write-up)
- Open meeting March 3, 2-3:30pm in Mann 102 and should Zoom it too
- How will we decide what to take forward from KAPOW!, BAM! and SMASH!? (or as Tim put it, "what happens in late February?")
- ACTION Everyone to think about what to take forward, plan to focus 2/28 meeting on this
- SMASH!
- 2020-02-21 We have a smash video demo time set up for Monday. Hitchcock homage and cameos will be done separately later in the week.
- Authority Lookups for Sinopia (Lookup infrastructure: https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/projects/2, Authority requests: https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/projects/1)
- Current Beanstalk deployment on AWS is broken. The Ruby bundler is now not working for unknown reasons – cannot deploy with known good code state so it seems like something in the environment
- When deployment issue solved... will then put out CERL and ligatus and extended context for MeSH along with sub-authorities. Also some refactoring associated with monitoring status page (including fixing a memory leak due to a long-used hash - ruby doesn't reclaim space from deleted entries)
- Not sure whether Dave has redone the index to avoid SPARQL for MeSH – if it is done then we will have a comparison
- ACTION - Lynette to ask Tiziana about SHARE-VDE APIs for real-time up-to-date search and for possible engagement in linked data best practices for authoritative data working group
