[MCN-L] Digital Outreach on the org chart

[Gordy, John]

Hello MCNers
I'm working on a panel proposal on where different museums place Digital 
Outreach on their org charts. For the purposes of this project I'd like to 
define Digital Outreach as points where digital reaches the public (social 
media, web, digital displays in the gallery, etc). Will you please tell me 
where Digital Outreach fits in your museum or cultural institution? And let me 
know how it's working or any issues that have come up. Bonus points if you send 
an org chart.
I'll anonymize the info and report back to the list
Thanks!

[MCN-L] Online Collections Tagging

[Sternbergh, Margaret]

Having recently made our collections available online for viewing and 
searching, we are beginning to determine next steps to make the database more 
useful. One priority is tagging the collection for context (style, art 
movement, etc), material (wood, metal, etc) and other useful searchable terms. 
We'd like to learn from other institutions who have recently embarked on such a 
project. If you have undertaken a tagging project and would be available to 
answer a few questions of from our registration team, please be in touch.

Thanks!

Hi, Margaret!

The Portland Art Museum has been doing materials, subject, geographic, etc. 
layers of cataloging on our collection for about five years, using a 
combination of AAT, TGN, Iconclass, and home-grown thesauri. I'd be happy to 
chat with you!

Hi Margaret

The Yale Center for British Art has been doing subject, materials, geo 
locations indexing for a while as well. It is necessary for our production of 
Linked Open Data/RDF. We are using TMS and sharing our machine readable dataset 
via LIDO XML and CIDOC-CRM RDF. Be in touch if that's useful.

[MCN-L] LAM interoperability SIG?

[Stefano Cossu]

Hello,
It was exciting to host a lively conversation at the last MCN conference 
about Libraries, Archives and Museums (topics: [1]; slides: [2]). I am 
happy to see that many colleagues are interested in tearing down the 
barriers between bibliographical, archival and collection records within 
museums, as well as promoting the exchange of information and 
technologies between Cultural Heritage institutions.


I think the session sparked quite some interest and raised important 
topics from many of the participants. I also believe that this 
conversation needs to be brought forward.


This mailing list may be a good place to follow up that conversation. I 
would love to propose a similar session for next MCN, actually even 
closer to a round-table discussion than to a panel.


If enough people are interested, I would also propose to create a 
special interest group for this topic. Goal of the SIG would be torefine 
the core topics that we brought up at the conference using this mailing 
list, and then meet in person at the next MCN with a distilled down list 
of action items.


Anyone interested in this proposal is welcome to respond.

Thanks,
Stefano

I’d certainly be interested in talking more about that—the Carnegie Museums 
have been working and talking about archive and collection integration for the 
past year, and we’ve also had some early conversations about integration with 
both our internal library and our sister institution, the Carnegie Library.

I’d certainly be interested in talking more about that—the Carnegie Museums 
have been working and talking about archive and collection integration for the 
past year, and we’ve also had some early conversations about integration with 
both our internal library and our sister institution, the Carnegie Library.

Hello,
It was exciting to host a lively conversation at the last MCN conference
about Libraries, Archives and Museums (topics: [1]; slides: [2]). I am
happy to see that many colleagues are interested in tearing down the
barriers between bibliographical, archival and collection records within
museums, as well as promoting the exchange of information and
technologies between Cultural Heritage institutions.
I think the session sparked quite some interest and raised important
topics from many of the participants. I also believe that this
conversation needs to be brought forward.
This mailing list may be a good place to follow up that conversation. I
would love to propose a similar session for next MCN, actually even
closer to a round-table discussion than to a panel.
If enough people are interested, I would also propose to create a
special interest group for this topic. Goal of the SIG would be torefine
the core topics that we brought up at the conference using this mailing
list, and then meet in person at the next MCN with a distilled down list
of action items.
Anyone interested in this proposal is welcome to respond.
Thanks,
Stefano

Re: [MCN-L] LAM interoperability SIG?

[Adrian Kingston]

Hi Stephano

I'd be interested in following the discussion from afar (NZ). You might also be 
interested in the work of the National Digital Forum here in NZ. For over 10 
years it's been bringing GLAMs (we add a G for Galleries) together to talk all 
things digital, audience, engagement etc. The site is here 
http://www.ndf.org.nz/ and there are videos of presentations from past 
conferences here https://www.youtube.com/user/NDFNZ. The main output is a 
conference, but there is skill sharing, regional barcamps etc as well. I guess 
being a small country is a bit easier to get past sector barriers, but we seem 
to play together pretty well. I have to say, if you can swing some 
international travel, I HIGHLY recommend the conference. It's usually Oct/Nov. 

Cheers

Subject: [MCN-L] LAM interoperability SIG?

Hello,
It was exciting to host a lively conversation at the last MCN conference about 
Libraries, Archives and Museums (topics: [1]; slides: [2]). I am happy to see 
that many colleagues are interested in tearing down the barriers between 
bibliographical, archival and collection records within museums, as well as 
promoting the exchange of information and technologies between Cultural 
Heritage institutions.

I think the session sparked quite some interest and raised important topics 
from many of the participants. I also believe that this conversation needs to 
be brought forward.

This mailing list may be a good place to follow up that conversation. I would 
love to propose a similar session for next MCN, actually even closer to a 
round-table discussion than to a panel.

If enough people are interested, I would also propose to create a special 
interest group for this topic. Goal of the SIG would be torefine the core 
topics that we brought up at the conference using this mailing list, and then 
meet in person at the next MCN with a distilled down list of action items.

Anyone interested in this proposal is welcome to respond.

Thanks,
Stefano

This is a fantastic idea and I would love to join in. For the past year we've 
been working on integration of our archives at Carnegie Museum of Art and it 
was encouraging to hear all the discussion on this topic at MCN. There is so 
much potential in this area!

Hello Stafano,

The AAM Media & Technology Program Network is interested in hosting a 
discussion on the topic of LAM interoperability at the AAM annual meeting in DC 
next May. As Co-Chair of the Media & Technology group, I’d be delighted to 
serve as a coordinator for anyone attending the conference and interested in 
arranging a date and time to meet.

Looking forward to more conversation around this topic!

All best regards,

-Neal

Re: [MCN-L] Online Collections Tagging

[Glen Barnes]

We’ve just done some initial testing with Clarifai
 for
auto-tagging images. The tags are not 100% but I think there is an
opportunity there to tag using something Clarifai and present these tags to
users - “Do any of these tags describe the work? painting, barn, landscape,
tractor”

They have 5000/month free plan which is good for testing. I would be
interested to see if others have had any experience with this or similar
systems.

Cheers
Glen

Dear Stefano,

I am very interested in being involved in the conversation, as this topic
is essentially the subject of my current doctoral research. At this stage
it's unlikely I will be able to make it to the next MCN (I'm based in
Australia), but I'll do my best!

Regards,
Mike Jones
