Agenda
Meeting Materials
Activity streams are Json-ld
- id - self referential
- url - same url but with json - provides the feed in a different format - based on documentation, link to the same thing
Perhaps use author property on the entry authority stream.
There is also a context property.
self referential id may be confusing for less technical, but mostly geared toward machine readable
Process question
Cache copy of LC records, but don't regularly refresh. Only have headings they use. Probably refreshed many years ago. Can we use the activity stream
Can we receive an update without a full dump?
Simple answer, is yes, why not?
Using regular base downloads + activity streams requires that the activity stream covers all changes between the two base downloads.
Need to describe basic usage process for...
- full cache
- partial cache
MARC subfield 0 is the authority
MARC subfield 1 is the real world object
How does LC plan to present the RWO vs authority? Will there be two streams? Perhaps. Each authority will have to make a decision on that.
Generally organizing activity streams, would type be used to identify entity type vs. source?
Have a separate stream per source as opposed to provider. Ex. LC subjects, LC names would each be different
Notes
Notes were taken directly in the working documents. See meeting materials for links.
Recording: TBD
Future Topics
- Notification to a single institution when a requested entity that was missing becomes available. This will likely be outside the main change management stream.
- Value of diagraming to express changes as a means of conveying information around where data is being produced, where it goes, etc.
- Partial splits and partial merges.
