MIT Lincoln Laboratory has pioneered in advanced electronics since its origin
in 1951 as a Federally Funded Research and Development Center of the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The Knowledge Services team is
currently developing infrastructure for a digital preservation repository
system.
This is really more of a thought experiment than an actual project, but
I thought some people might get a kick out of it - maybe someone has
even done it.
We are in the process of redesigning our library homepage. During the
fall semester we had a team of freshmen CIS students do a basic
Hi Ellen,
I think this is a great idea. If you could collect temperature readings with a
date/timestamp, you could even create graphs of indoor weather over time. Maybe
this could be done with a PHP/MySQL script, or even have the temperature
tweeted using the Twitter API?
I actually had the
Sounds like a neat idea. I wonder if you could get electrical engineering
students to build DIY sensors from kits and make a real educational project out
of it.

Ellen,
Sounds fun.
I'd start with an Arduino + temperature sensor

You'd need other kit to get it to a webserver, which this video covers nicely.

Hm. And if you collected and recorded the data for some period of time, you
might be able to use it to convince Building Services (or whoever) to try to
fix the problem.

So, if one were to attempt this:
-Would it be OCLC-approved?
If this doesn't meet the definition of Geek the Library, I don't know
what else would.
+1 OCLC Approval
You could nail digital thermometers up and point webcams at them then
run that through OCR.
( sorry, I was thinking about what might actually get approved in the
budget...)

I couldn't help but think that meteorologists and archivists should already

Hi Ellen!
How about a just javascript that randomly spits out temperatures
around 70° Fahrenheit? That would cost less and have the knock-on
effect of stifling student dissent.

Over the past few days we’ve received a ton of great proposals. Choosing the
best is not going to be easy, and however we choose, I know there will be some
great presentations that we won’t get to
We do have microclimates within the library, so while it may be hot on
3N, chances are good it's freezing on 4S. Given that actually fixing this
is beyond the library's control, what if we put wireless temperature
sensors throughout the building and displayed their readings on the library

Depending on how many you need, wireless sensors for weather stations could
make more sense (you can run them on different channels to prevent
