[CODE4LIB] survey -- les éditeurs XML TEI/EAD

2013-05-14 Thread Tom Cramer
Colleagues at the Bibliotheque nationale de France are conducting a survey on 
XML editing requirements for TEI and EAD. They are exploring writing an open 
source XML editor that is 'skinned' and tailored to producing TEI/EAD for 
non-expert users. If you have a moment, they'd greatly appreciate your input. 
Feel free to answer in French, English or German...

Speaking of API's for journals, I have been revisiting JSTOR's Data For 
Research (DFR) site -- http://dfr.jstor.org. It is interesting because it 
allows you to download data sets describing JSTOR search results. Here's how:

  1. go to dfr.jstor.org
  2. sign in
  3. search the (entire) JSTOR collection
  4. refine, refine, and refine your search results
  5. request a dataset
  6. wait for email message telling you dataset is ready
  7. download dataset
  8. munge the dataset to do cool things

At the most, each dataset will contain a file of citation information, a lists 
of ngrams (bigrams, trigrams, and quadgrams) from each article, a list of 
statistically significant keywords from each article, and a list of most 
frequently used words from each article. 

>From this data all sorts of things can be created:

  * a tag/word cloud of each article or of the entire corpus
  * a Simile timeline of published articles
  * various citation formats
  * exports into other databases
  * after automatically downloading PDF versions of the article,
concordances can be created
  * services such as "find more like this one" can be implemented

Unfortunately, the searching API (an SRU interface) has been discontinued from 
DFR, but the whole thing still is pretty cool.

Re: [CODE4LIB] repository migration

2013-05-14 Thread Peter Binkley
We migrated from DSpace to Fedora a couple of years ago, using basically
the process that Edwin outlines. One issue to consider is identifiers and
permalinks: we were using handles in DSpace, and had to make sure that all
the old handles continued to work against Fedora and that we could mint new
ones properly. Apart from that, it was a fairly straight-forward scripting
job, using the Fedora API.

*Cambridge Journals encourages new uses
for journal data by releasing its API…*

Cambridge Journals Online (CJO) undergoes three major feature releases each
year, ensuring that it remains on the pulse of technological change. Our
latest development saw this commitment to continued advancement pushed
still further, with our API released in April.



*What is an API?*


An API (Application Programming Interface) is essentially a set of
protocols and instructions for building software applications – a toolkit
for developers which enables them to take online data and create something
with it. From mobile apps, to widgets and web applications, the
developmental opportunities an API creates are many and wide-ranging. By
making the Cambridge Journals API available, developers can freely use
certain data from CJO to create such applications.

*
The Cambridge Journals API Programme*

The Cambridge Journals API programme is still in beta phase, making only
basic article information available for external development. This trial
period will invite interested third party developers to explore new uses
for Cambridge content, and will open up the potential for new and exciting
ideas that will benefit the academic community.



In line with our commitment to advance learning, knowledge and research
worldwide, we are excited to see just how the Cambridge Journals API
programme will be adopted and implemented.



If you would like more information about this latest venture, please visit

Re: [CODE4LIB] EAD vs. HTML for finding aids

Thanks to everyone for their responses.  You all have confirmed what I thought 
but couldn't properly verbalize.  Hopefully my argument for EAD will be taken 
into consideration by TPTB.

KYLE:  Our finding aids have never been described using EAD.  I don't actually 
work in the special collections department so I can't explain how we ended up 
here.

A lot of things are happening at once:  transitioning to a new CMS, becoming a 
hosted instance of CONTENTdm, upgrading from CONTENTdm 5.4 to 6.x.

This.

However, EAD is no silver bullet as there are multiple ways you can 
legitimately code the same finding aids. This means that stylesheets and 
translation tools that work for one institution or set of finding aids won't 
necessarily work for another. But it is still clearly the best way to go.

Although MARC has been used to describe archival collections, it is not an 
appropriate tool. For starters, MARC is designed to describe individual items 
where EAD is designed to describe collections of materials. MARC lacks a good 
way to express important archival elements, has technical limitations that 
makes it impossible to encode some things, and it's hopeless for expressing 
complex hierarchical relationships. MARC cannot achieve equivalent 
functionality to EAD (even if it can be used for some
purposes) which is why EAD to MARC crosswalks typically have the MARC tags 
buried right in the EAD -- i.e. the transform is hand coded on a record by 
record basis.

RACHEL: are you positive this stuff really is in HTML and that what you've seen 
isn't simply translated from EAD (i.e. did your archivist say they were just 
doing finding aids in HTML)? I was under the impression that manually HTMLizing 
finding aids fell into disfavor long ago as maintenance is far more difficult 
and incompatibility with the rest of the world is guaranteed.

Re: [CODE4LIB] IBM disk array expansion

2013-05-14 Thread Graham Stewart
We used to run IBM FastT 600 storage servers here, which are the 
ancestors of the DS series, using the same Ingenio controllers.


With those you could add expansions units without downtime. The 
procedure involved cabling up the the new units, then powering them on, 
then, once recognized, inserting the disks a couple at a time, waiting 
until they are recognized.


Of course, advice from IBM support would be a good idea :-) ... For 
example IBM would sometimes caution that firmware in the new ESMs could 
be at a higher level that the existing ESMs, and could cause problems.


Best of luck!

[CODE4LIB] CfP - 2nd INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON MULTIMEDIA FOR CULTURAL HERITAGE

2013-05-14 Thread Johan Oomen
CALL FOR PAPERS

2nd INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON MULTIMEDIA FOR CULTURAL HERITAGE (MM4CH 2013)

9-10th September 2013
Naples, Italy
http://imagelab.ing.unimore.it/MM4CH2013

Submission Deadline (extended): May 15, 2013 June 2, 2013

In conjunction with the 17th International Conference on Image Analysis and 
Processing (ICIAP), Naples, Italy, http://www.iciap2013-naples.org/

Selected papers will appear (after extension and peer-review) in a special 
issue of Multimedia Tools and Applications, Springer.

Multimedia technologies have recently created the conditions for a true 
revolution in the Cultural Heritage area, with reference to the study, 
valorization, and fruition of artistic works. The use of these technologies 
allow creating new digital cultural experiences by means of personalized and 
engaging interaction.

New multimedia technologies could be used to design new approaches to the 
comprehension and fruition of the artistic heritage for example through smart, 
context-aware artifacts and enhanced interfaces with the support of features 
like story-telling, gaming and learning. To these aims, open and flexible 
platforms are needed, to allow building services that support use of cultural 
resources for research and education. A likely expectation is the involvement 
of a wider range of users of cultural resources in diverse contexts and 
considerably altered ways to experience and share cultural knowledge between 
participants.

The 2nd International Workshop on Multimedia for Cultural Heritage, will be 
held on the 9-10th of September 2013, in conjunction with the 17th 
International Conference on Image Analysis and Processing (ICIAP), Naples, 
Italy, aims to be a profitable informal working day to discuss together hot 
topics in multimedia applied to cultural heritage.

Submissions are expected to deal with multimedia in areas including, but not 
limited to:

Interactive 3D media and immersive environments
Multi-modal multimedia computing systems and human machine interaction
Multimedia databases and digital libraries
Multimedia applications and services
Media content analysis and search
Hardware and software for multimedia systems, also in mobile scenarios
Security issues in the presentation and distribution of cultural information

[CODE4LIB] Announcing lentil

2013-05-14 Thread Jason Casden
This is just a quick note to announce the open-source release of the lentil
project[1], which is extracted from the My #HuntLibrary[2][3] photography
(i.e. Instagram) social media collection and preservation project.

My #HuntLibrary was created as a platform to foster student and community
engagement with the new James B. Hunt Jr. library via social media imagery
and to preserve these images as part of the record of the Hunt Library
launch. Images from this crowdsourced documentation effort will be selected
to become part of our permanent digital collections, allowing the NCSU
community to contribute to the historical record of the Hunt Library
through image submissions as well as the use of voting tools. Cory Lown and
I presented a lightning talk[4] at Code4Lib 2013 about this project and
heard from several folks who were curious about implementing a similar
service.

lentil is a Ruby on Rails gem that provides a straightforward way to create
a similar service on a Rails-capable web server. Special thanks to Jason
Ronallo for the Rails Engine extraction and packaging, and for showing that
a lentil-based project can be deployed to Heroku.

Please let us know if you have any questions or ideas, or if you give
lentil a try.
