BANG!: Finished LCCN analysis for Hubs . Used the same 10,000 sample method as before
For aggregations by hub (i.e. multiple LCCNs all under the same hub)
497 sets with > 1 LCCN where hub > 1 work, covering a total of 1840 LCCNs. These match to our Cornell catalog: 38 sets of LCCNs comprised of a total of 284 LCCNs.
For relationships where two hubs are related via property
277 sets where two hubs are related and each set has > 1 LCCN, comprised of a total of 674 LCCNs.
224 sets related via hasTranslation, 53 related through relatedTo
Matches: 33 sets comprised of 123 total.
26 sets related via hasTranslation, 7 sets related via relatedTo
We seem to be getting more useful results from LC Hubs than SVDE/PCC data
Steven thinking about what these number suggest for catalog services; also want to compare with what we have from the old OCLC concordance file
Huda asked Michelle about doing analysis on Sinopia data. API has metrics systems that provides info on what facilities are being use
We note possibilities for query against POD data in VuFind instance that will be set of the BD (or local instance were we to build one). We could filter data and build an ISBN index of modest size for example
2022-03-25
Huda has looked at finding related works by ISBN in other IPLC libraries using POD data, thinking about how this could be tied to easier BD request functionality
Huda looking at tidying and writing up scripts from analysis work ...
Steven has asked Jeff Mixter what we can find from OCLC about versions of same thing across their very broad data
Huda hasn't looked at Sinopia APi yet. Nancy has commented that Instance template is most used
PLAN: Wrap up analysis next week and Huda/Steven will give run-through at meeting, then look at literature and decide what to implement, do prototype in May, test in June
2022-03-25 Planning open office hour next week on Knowledge Panel white paper and group planning. On April 12 have plans to talk about challenges and opportunities of doing new discovery and LD work at their institutions, including how folks at institutions with fewer resources and do things, or what they need
Document started re: Comments, Questions and Suggestions offered during the myriad of presentations provided. Huda will add link here
No meeting with Stanford this week. Much of the Stanford team had conflicts.
Met with Greg and Dave on Containerization. More on that below.
homosaurus - No change. Dave has in triple store. Steven defined context and validations. Lynette configured QA. Waiting on Dave to index and put up the search API endpoint.
Dave still needs to fix of total_number_found to make pagination work to get pagination working again in Sinopia. Once that is done, it will just feed through to Sinopia without any additional work.
Meeting with OCLC this afternoon to discuss collaboration and our usage.
National Library of Norway has requested some additional authorities, one has dataset, other has API
Met with Kevin at LOC to talk through the LOC activity stream and how Dave can use it to do an incremental update. There is a path forward for this. (notes)
Scheduled to meet next Tues afternoon with Getty to look at how it can be used for incremental update.
Scheduled to meet next Thurs afternoon with Sinopia team to strategize how to update cached labels in the Sinopia app.
Working on updating the Consumer Processing section in the EMM Change Document API based on the results of these meetings.
There is still a question about date handling and what we want to recommend. Options are endTime, startTime, published, updated
Worked on QaServerContainer support for customizing Qa and QaServer (PR #56). Used environment variables to set values in their respective initializers. Will need to copy translations from S3 which hold some app specific text overrides for the footer. Would be nice to have these as environment variables too, but translations can't use environment variables. Greg and I need to work through several things.
how to add the new env variables to the deploy
how to update the deploy when the image changes (the templates were used for the initial deploy
how will -int, -stg, and -prod be supported? currently only -prod is supported.
Greg and Lynette will work together to see what it takes to move the container version into production
Dave, Greg, and Lynette met for status update and next steps for containerizing the cache. Talked through current workflow for QaServer. Greg will take first stab at setting up the cache search API endpoints in a Tomcat container for 2 authorities.
Greg has hosted indexes in S3 for Dave so he can point cache server at them. Dave hasn't had time to work on it. Now Greg trying to do this and has war files from Dave

2021-12-10 OCLC presented at bigheads meeting this week, in testing

2021-01-21 Definitions and non-RDA final report to POCO (hopefully) to be submitted next week
2022-01-14 Nothing new to report.
Authorities in FOLIO
2022-03-25 Some transitions in team. Useful meeting with Jenn, Frances, Nick, and Darcy to decide what needs to be provided to build queue. Mockups look good and allow filtering on types of change (new, deleted, updated). Quite different indexing requirements for data maintenance vs discovery
Upcoming meetings/presentations
KULA submission for special Issue "The Metadata Issue: Metadata as Knowledge" accepted, final proof text that Huda will accept straightforward changes and ask group for final feedback by April 1.
