2021-04-21 NAAN Registry WG Agenda and Notes

Exchanges with the Dutch Digital Heritage Network (GLAM institutions across the Netherlands)

A journal in Peru interested in using arks has developed a plug-in for OJS

The Louvre Museum, which has a new website for its collections, each item having an ark, gave the Ark Alliance permission to communicate on this.

Further exchanges to be made to communicate on arks advantages for institutions (and have a policy webpage )

There is an updated checklist with examples

Commit to the main branch

when to ignore a request : seldom used (obviously obnoxious or irrelevant requests, repeated) but some requests cannot be fulfilled under US legislation preventing furnishing goods and services to some countries/institutions (e.g. Iran, North Korea, Cuban institutions linked to the military). Best practice: when in doubt, share the request and associated angst with the group.

Aurélien & Chloé taking over from Bertrand on May 1st

test request and map collaborators

• requires continuously updated map data file
• select smallest marker (dot)
• select red color

How to collaborate? Do we have to create a new map that's singly owned and then link it in to arks.org/community ?

The map on arks.org/community is a snapshot linking to a manually updated Google map.

Desire to share the updating or (ideal) automate the process from the registry.

Demo by Chloé of an OpenStreetMap POC with French institutions (356) with simple python code and an SQL database

//VPN pb, some of the ensuing discussion missing here : Chloé to carry on with the project and share results with the group.

John and Maria aim to test sharing of the existing, Google map. There seem to be possibilities of sharing the database between google users (but maybe differently depending on account type ? To be explored).
