Dave,

That seems to work in the same way as copying from the TIFF to the JP2. 
Surprising that I didn't think of trying this :) Apparently either there are 
too many choices or the one I was using was not correct for what I was trying 
to achieve. 

It seems that exiftool is more powerful than I gave it credit for.

Thanks!

Re: [CODE4LIB] MARC magic for file

2011-03-24 Thread Simon Spero
Some of the problems in your first cut are:

1. Offsets for regex are given in terms of lines.  MARC files don't have
newlines in them, unless you're Millennium, in which case they can be
inserted every 200,000 bytes to keep things interesting.
2.  Byte matches match byte values, so 20 byte 4   is looking for the
binary value, not the ascii digit.
3.  Sometimes you need to prime the buffer before you can do a regexp match.

Is this good enough?


# MARC 21 Magic  (First cut)
#  indicator count must be 2
10 string 2
#  leader must end in 4500
20 string 4500
#  leader must start with five digits, a record status, and a record
type
0 regex ^([0-9]{5})[acdnp][acdefgijkmoprt][abcims] MARC Bibliographic
0 regex ^([0-9]{5})[acdnp][z] MARC Authority

 Has anyone figured out the magic necessary for file to recognize MARC
 files?

 If you don't know it, file is a Unix command that tells you what kind of
 file a file is.  For example:

 $ file 101015_001.mp3
 101015_001.mp3: Audio file with ID3 version 2.3.0, contains: MPEG ADTS,
 layer III, v1, 192 kbps, 44.1 kHz, Stereo

 $ file P126.jpg
 P126.jpg: JPEG image data, EXIF standard, comment: AppleMark

 It's a really useful command.  I assume it's on OSX, but I don't know. You
 can get it for Windows with Cygwin.

 The problem is, file doesn't grok MARC:

 $ file catalog.01.mrc
 catalog.01.mrc: data

 I took a stab at getting the magic defined, but it didn't work.  I'll
 include what I used below.  You can put it into a magic.txt file, and then
 use

 file -m magic.txt some_file.mrc

 to test it.  It'll tell you the file is MARC Bibliographic ... but it also
 thinks that PDFs, JPEGs, and text files are MARC.  That's no good.

 It'd be great if the MARC magic got into the central magic database so
 everyone would be able to recognize various MARC file types.

[CODE4LIB] Call for participation - Semantic Web Technologies for Libraries and Readers at JCDL

We're organizing a JCDL workshop on Semantic Web Technologies for Libraries
and Readers. Consider submitting demos, posters, and research papers (by May
1st), and feel free to write me or the organizing committee (
stlrworkshop2...@gmail.com) with any questions.

-Jodi

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
The 1st Workshop on Semantic Web Technologies for Libraries and Readers
STLR 2011
June 16 (PM) - 17 (AM) 2011
http://stlr2011.weebly.com/

Co-located with the ACM/IEEE Joint Conference on Digital Libraries (JCDL)
2011
Ottawa, Canada

While Semantic Web technologies are successfully being applied to library
catalogs and digital libraries, the semantic enhancement of books and other
electronic media is ripe for further exploration. Connections between
envisioned and emerging scholarly objects (which are doubtless social and
semantic) and the digital libraries in which these items will be housed,
encountered, and explored have yet to be made and implemented. Likewise,
mobile reading brings new opportunities for personalized, context-aware
interactions between reader and material, enriched by information such as
location, time of day and access history.

This full-day workshop, motivated by the idea that reading is mobile,
interactive, social, and material, will be focused on semantically enhancing
electronic media as well as on the mobile and social aspects of the Semantic
Web for electronic media, libraries and their users. It aims to bring
together practitioners and developers involved in semantically enhancing
electronic media (including documents, books, research objects, multimedia
materials and digital libraries) as well as academics researching more
formal aspects of the interactions between such resources and their users.
We also particularly invite entrepreneurs and developers interested in
enhancing electronic media using Semantic Web technologies with a
user-centered approach.

We invite the submission of papers, demonstrations and posters which
describe implementations or original research that are related (but are not
limited) to the following areas of interest:

- Strategies for semantic publishing (technical, social, and economic)
- Approaches for consuming semantic representations of digital documents and
electronic media
- Open and shared semantic bookmarks and annotations for mobile and
device-independent use
- User-centered approaches for semantically annotating reading lists and/or
library catalogues
- Applications of Semantic Web technologies for building personal or
context-aware media libraries
- Approaches for interacting with context-aware electronic media (e.g.
location-aware storytelling, context-sensitive mobile applications, use of
geolocation, personalization, etc.)
- Applications for media recommendations and filtering using Semantic Web
technologies
- Applications integrating natural language processing with approaches for
semantic annotation of reading materials
- Applications leveraging the interoperability of semantic annotations for
aggregation and crowd-sourcing
- Approaches for discipline-specific or task-specific information sharing
and collaboration
- Social semantic approaches for using, publishing, and filtering scholarly
objects and personal electronic media

 For a good time I geo-located the email domains of Code4Lib subscribers,
 plotted them on a Google map


Eric, that is pretty awesome! :-)

Disappointed not to show up in there though. The are 6 subscribers with a
New Zealand domain, but no mark on the map. (In comparison NGC4Lib has 17
and has a mark over Wellington.)

On the bright side, the last time I saw a map of New Zealand covered in
those circles was a visualisation of the hundreds of aftershocks in

[CODE4LIB] Position Open - Director of Integrated Technology

2011-03-24 Thread Ludwig, Deborah
The University of Kansas (KU) Libraries invites nominations and applications 
for a new tenure-track faculty position, the Director of Integrated Technology 
Services. KU Libraries is nationally renowned for innovative work in open 
access to scholarship, unique digital and traditional collections, quality 
instructional programs, and campus and regional collaborations that expand 
services and resources to the ever-changing KU community. In 2010, we undertook 
major initiatives to build the student-focused Anschutz Learning Studio and a 
new Center for Digital Scholarship (cds.lib.ku.edu) that supports faculty and 
graduate scholarship and publishing initiatives. We are campus partners in the 
Institute for Digital Research in the Humanities. We are advancing initiatives 
in web scale discovery services, data management, and instructional design. The 
successful candidate will serve as a leader and a catalyst for planning and 
delivering technologies that extend the reach and capacity !
 of our services and resources.

The Libraries' Integrated Technology Services (LITS) department is responsible 
for a results-driven approach to developing and delivering quality user
