Recording: Activity Streams - Using Instrument Property to Express Change (2021-08-30)
Notes were taken directly in the Activity Streams document as comments with general discussions captured here.
Activity streams are Json-ld
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
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...
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
Authority vs. Entity
NameTitle - authority focused
Work - entity focused
Likely this will be known based on the source of the activity stream.
