To focus the meeting and allow for a variety of participant feedback and collaboration, the meeting is organized around 4 “topic areas”, with roughly half-day for each theme, and a final session to tie the themes together and look ahead. Each topic will include presentations to the whole group (from invitees and from LD4L-Labs/LD4P partners) and discussion/collaboration/participation in small groups.
Monday, April 24th (Day 1) 8:30–9:00 am Breakfast 9:00–9:15 am Welcome Agenda, space, shared docs, other logistics, goals and outcomes. 9:15–9:45 am Participant introductions 9:45–10:15 am Setting the Stage Overview of LD4P & LD4L-Labs efforts, background, context. Updates from LD4P & LD4L-Labs partners. 10:15–10:30 am Break 10:30 am–12:45 pm Topic Area #1: Ontology Ontology development, maintenance, extensions, reuse, and related questions. LD4All Presentation: Steven Folsom, Jason Kovari Lightning talks: Discussion questions: Building links between BIBFRAME 2.0, LD4L/LD4P BF Extension, Domain Extensions & the rest of the LOD world discussion of BF relative to other domains (ontology development in Europe and North America; adoption of ontologies by vendors and open source software developers; etc.) BF interactions with extensions - what are these extensions? how are they discovered? how are they developed? how are they managed? Implications of having multiple ontologies in library world. what does this mean for data capture? discovery? maintenance? tooling? what does having multiple ontologies mean for sharing? where are ontologies and vocabularies hosted? how does this require trust networks for updates (also touched on in governance portion of the meeting)? 12:45–1:30 pm Lunch Lunch buffet in meeting space. 1:30–3:00 pm Topic Area #2: Workflows, Procedures & Production What linked data means for our existing procedures, and what libraries and other cultural heritage institutions need to do when moving linked data into production. Lightning talks: from MARC to Schema.org; non-MARC workflows in LOD; cataloger use of authorities tooling; Hydra-focused workflows using RDF; authorities and identity management; BIBFLOW Discussion questions: Detailed descriptions and signup here. Please signup for the topic you're most interested in. 3:00–3:15 pm Break 3:15–4:00 pm Topic Area #2 cont. 4:00–5:00 pm Wrap-Up 5:30–7:00 pm Reception Green Library (10-minute walk from Arrillaga Alumni Center) Tuesday, April 25th (Day 2) 8:30–9:00 am Breakfast 9:00–9:15 am Introduction 9:15–10:20 am Topic Area #3: Tooling and Services Map existing tool landscape and identify tool gaps. Explore how tools fit together in a continuous workflow. Lightning talks: a vendor's perspective; BIBFRAME in FOLIO; vocabulary-driven cataloging at National Library of Sweden; experimental tools for metadata creation; CEDAR; linked data in production lessons learned at BnF 10:20–10:50 am Break 10:50 am–Noon Topic Area #3 cont. Discussion questions: What is current best in class for tools that meet needs? (And why aren’t we all just using them?) What are the biggest and most pressing gaps? How can we organize ourselves to get better and more tools? Are some things better provided as (hosted) services rather than (local) instances of tools? What tools & services for linked data can we use that don’t come from cultural heritage organizations? Noon–1:00 pm Lunch Lunch buffet in meeting space. 1:00–3:15 pm Topic Area #4: Community Engagement and Adoption Engagement of user communities. How to encourage adoption of standards, tools, services, infrastructure. Lightning talks: distributed authority management; linked data in Canada; next big steps for cataloging in Denmark and Europe; DCMI and the vocabulary ecosystem; community aspects of PCC URI group; community aspects of BIBFRAME; "Keeping the Exciting in 'vague but exciting'" Discussion questions to be identified as a group 3:15–3:30 pm Break 3:30–4:30 pm Next Steps 4:30–5:00 pm ConclusionAgenda
