Agenda & Notes

Review actions from 2019-04-05 Cornell LD4P2 Meeting notes

Steven Folsom keep track of cataloger perspective on work to support LC Names is in QA with context
- 2019-03-15 - Dave is focused on SHARE-VDE as his top priority (https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/issues/16), when that has been moved forward we need to emphasize our other priorities again:
  - https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/issues/16 - 2019-04-05 - Dave fixed the data issue 3 weeks ago, E. Lynette Rayle will update QA to use LDPath to get label appropriately (Issue #64)
  - https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/issues/53 - SF 2019-04-05, RWOs added, now need to test if when searching RWOs, if data from the Authority comes back to in the context → Steven Folsomto follow up with Sinopia team about how to QA/Dave can support getting from Authority to RWO; also follow up with LC about reciprocal properties between RWO and Authority (currently has only Authority to RWO). If Sinopia cannot do Authority→RWO and LC cannot for RWO→Authority in a timely fashion then we might need to add the generation of reciprocal link in DAVE indexing process
  - https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/issues/50 - SF 2019-04-05, The deprecated authority descriptions in the spreadsheet were a little off; David Eichmann should have what he needs now: E. Lynette Rayleneeds to add LDPath to configuration to get the deprecated authority labels
  - https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/issues/47 - SF 2019-04-05, stalled because when beginning to create YAML tests, folks at NLM realized the MESH dataset in DAVE is from http://bioportal.bioontology.org/, rather than ftp://nlmpubs.nlm.nih.gov/online/mesh/rdf/2018/
- 2019-04-12 There are all issues in github now, will track in QA server project, and prioritized there
Steven Folsom to reach out to Nancy to see what data we get from the "Profiles Wrangler" survey about QA needs, will then reach out to cohort to check results and see if anything is missing
- 2019-03-15 - Paloma mentioned before the survey closed that https://www.rbms.info/vocabularies/ and http://www.ligatus.org.uk/lob/ were named. Waiting for a complete list. The former, I (Steven) don't believe, is LOD; we'll have to confirm and come up with a plan.
  - List of datasets named in the Profile Wrangler Survey:
    - 2019-04-05 - SF, for datasets with no RDF, Nancy is explaining to the cohort that RDF is needed for lookups, and hoping the cohort have the resources/experience to convert to RDF.
    - RBMS (No RDF yet, but the editorial group is working towards it)
    - Language of Bindings, Ligatus - lobt (no RDF)
    - Canadian Subject Headings (No RDF)
    - RVM - Répertoire de vedettes-matière (No RDF)
    - wikidata (direct access via QA work) https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/issues/15
    - ISNI (No RDF but they plan to implement in the near future)
    - LCDGT (pending in QA) https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/issues/26
    - OLAC video games (pending in QA) https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/issues/42
    - RightsStatements.org
    - Creative Common licenses - 2019-04-05 - SF Not sure if there's official RDF for this, https://github.com/creativecommons/cc.licenserdf/tree/master/cc/licenserdf is on github, but it doesn't seem to be published over the web.
    - Video Game Ontology (GAMECIP) https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/issues/66
  - Steven Folsom will make sure there is a github issue for each vocabulary and try to find an owner for each. We will need to find out whether there are URIs for these terms – might not be able to support all
    - 2019-03-29 Issues not yet in github
    - 2019-04-05 - SF everything that has RDF has an Issue; has asked profiles leaders to discuss with cohort issue with non-RDF authorities, do they have effort to do the conversion?
  - 2019-04-12 There are now issues in QA server for everything that has RDF available – Will track these in QA server. For the non-RDF cases the Sinopia team will have discussions with the requesting cohort member.
E. Lynette Rayle investigate & document algorithm for selection of languages with label and/or no label. In cases like AgroVoc where languages are handled well then we just want to document the (good) algorithm; but in other cases where language information is wrong we need to be able to turn that off (need more config for this). Motivation is that we want good documentation in order to be able to discuss cases where language data is bad and we need settings to ignore it. Should be done in time for May meetings.
- 2019-03-22 - Documentation has been started but still has some TODOs to fill in information. Created issue to track (Issue #61)
- 2019-04-12 Track on issue board, lower priority than other tasks
Jason Kovariwill discuss in LTS whether there a URIs from Share-VDE data that are useful and might be added to catalog
- 2019-03-29 We have what is expected to be the final dump of SHARE-VDE effort. Hope to look at it soon. Then have discussion in LTS – people will need to see / explore data before forming opinions on utility
- 2019-04-05 Have dump and is in DAVE, but hasn't been investigated yet
- 2019-04-12 Not looked at yet
Simeon Warner re: Ruby Dev for Enhanced Discovery work
- 2019-04-12 Posted and getting applications...
Huda Khan to create new repository for Cornell discovery work and then create issues for the three work areas organized in a project board
- https://github.com/LD4P/discovery (repo) and https://github.com/LD4P/discovery/projects/1 (project)
- DONE
E. Lynette Rayle to re-review Tim's 3 PRs for QA and get a community reviewer
- 2019-04-12 Lynette has done review and looks good, still need to find someone at another institution to review. Lynette will reach out today
Issues:
- Overall Project Board

Status updates and planning

Enhanced Discovery (see also https://wiki.duraspace.org/x/sJI7Bg and https://github.com/LD4P/discovery/projects/1)
Authority Lookups for Sinopia (Lookup infrastructure: https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/projects/2, Authority requests: https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/projects/1)
- Steven Folsom and E. Lynette Rayle to discuss how to use ldpath config to bring out grouping of sub-properties of an intermediate resource
- Steven Folsom to discuss with David Eichmann whether use of ldpath to describe data requirements is an issue and how convenient it is to convert to SPARQL
- Steven Folsom to ping Nancy about need to accuracy tests to move ahead with https://github.com/LD4P/qa_server/issues/13
Prep for Cataloging Sinatra and other 45's (Discogs data, https://github.com/ld4p/qa_server/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3ADiscogs)
- Still waiting merges to QA
- Have integrated QA lookup with display of context (including picture!!!), but selecting and item doesn't yet do anything
- Next step: implement term fetch call to get JSON-LD and show in some way
- Then put this work on hold until Sinopia team is gets to milestone 5 which will facilitate adding data from such an import. Will need to track this progress because of expected cataloger effort starting July 1. → have put this on Harvard pre-meeting agenda
Travel and meetings (see LD4P2 Cornell Meeting Attendances)

  - What to show at conference?
    - LC NAMES, Genre, Geonames, (and NALT, AgroVoc) all have context – will demo something in Lynette/Dave presentation
    - Discogs lookup, context, and some data import into local Sinopia – in Tim/Steven presentation

- LD4P June 2019 Meeting: Agenda formation: https://wiki.duraspace.org/x/p4B7Bg
  - Michelle (2019-03-21, email): "June in-person partner meeting in DC: planning hasn't started yet, it would be good to have at least one person from each of Cornell/Harvard/Iowa SLIS/LC/PCC/Stanford involved in the planning. Let me know if you want to take part."
  - Partner meeting is day after cohort; can we wait to plan until after May meeting?
Next meetings:
- Steven out April 19th.
- Huda out April 19th (might call in)
