Re: [MCN-L] LAM interoperability SIG?

[Mia]

Stefano, thank you for getting this conversation started!

I think the convergence of libraries, archives and museums has already been
under way for some time, and that a technology-based discussion list like
this one is the perfect place for the conversation to continue.
Single-purpose lists also often seem to struggle to get a critical mass of
discussions going, so unless there are strong objections from other list
members, I'd second Amalyah's call to keep the discussion here (at least
for now).

Cheers, Mia

Re: [MCN-L] LAM interoperability SIG?

[Stefano Cossu]

Dominic,
Thanks for your outstanding report on the activities around 
interoperability.


I agree that CIDOC-CRM is gaining popularity. It is also great to know 
that there is an OWL serialization for it [1].


How do you see CIDOC-CRM compared to FRBRoo in terms of bridging the gap 
between cultural heritage disciplines?


I also strongly agree with your point about abstraction. One of the 
topics that we touched in our session was that CIDOC-CRM, while being 
extremely flexible, is also hardly usable by humans on a daily basis. 
Since collection managers and librarians cannot catalog records using 
these models directly, we need an abstraction layer to map cataloging 
ontologies into the broader CIDOC-CRM. I would love to see, e.g. a RDF 
serialization of CDWA(I think that there is some effort in that 
direction with CONA[2]). I am curious to see what you and the Swedish 
National Archives are doing in this regard.


Also, if you want a human-readable publishing platform (website, mobile 
app, etc.) you need another layer that maps these broad models to 
something more fit for human consumption, e.g. dcterms, VRA core, or 
such. CIDOC-CRM can be used for cross-institutional interoperability or 
search/query APIs where you want to retain the full complexity of the 
model.


Thanks,
Stefano

Hi Eric,
Following up the discussion on this list[1], I would like to propose a 
LAM interoperability SIG and would encourage any interested colleagues 
to propose themselves as chairs.


Is it something that can be accommodated? I know timing is tight!

Thanks,

Message-ID:

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"

Hi everyone
For the first time in MCN?s history since revising the SIG Charter

last year, we will hold virtual elections between December 1-15, 2015 to
elect SIG Chairs and Vice Chairs. These volunteer positions have so far
been held by leaders who were appointed in their role by MCN's Board given
the previous process.

As a reminder, MCN Special Interest Groups (SIGs) are organized and run by
MCN members who have shared interests related to MCN?s overall mission.
Each SIG provides a forum for MCN members to pursue specific interests and
niche topics. You'll find the names of the current SIG Chairs by perusing
each SIG page on our website
. All are
professionals who have particular expertise or interest in a SIG's area.

In addition to being active in the community, chairing a SIG also
constitutes a leadership development opportunity. We invite anyone who
might be interested in the opportunity to let their intent known to the
current leaders of each SIG *no later than Friday November 20, 2015 by 12pm
ET*.

The list of candidates will be prepared and shared via online ballot forms
so everyone can participate in electing next year's SIG Chairs and Vice
Chairs. The voting will take place from December 1 through December 15,
2015. A reminder will be emailed to all.

At the end of the voting period, the ballots will be counted and the two
top candidates that receive the most votes in each SIG will be elected
Chair and Vice-Chair for a one-year term, renewable indefinitely.

We hope you will participate in electing our SIG leaders.

Any questions, please feel free to ask me or Scott Sayre, MCN Board SIGs
Liaison.
Best,
eric

[MCN-L] Selling tickets from tablets

[Aremband, Jill]

Good morning, everyone.

I have been asked to look into our options for selling tickets using handheld 
tablets near our entrances.  We are hoping to get away from steering everyone 
to an admissions desk.  Is anyone doing this?  Can anyone suggest vendors for 
software and/or hardware?  Any information will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your help,

Jill

Re: [MCN-L] LAM interoperability SIG?

[Stefano Cossu]

Hi Amalyah,
Although I have found Google groups very easy to set up and manage, I 
have no strong opinion on which platform this discussion should be hosted.


My main point here is whether we should keep the discussion in the main 
MCN list or on a separate one. The reason for the latter choice would be 
to help involving librarians and archivists not directly concerned with 
other museum technology topics. Maybe a sub-list within the mcn-l would 
be possible?


Given the broad audience who joined this thread only from the MCN list 
within a short time, however, I don't think this is a critical issue at 
the moment.


Thanks,
Stefano

Re: [MCN-L] LAM interoperability SIG?

[Dominic Oldman]

Dear Stefano,

CIDOC CRM is primarily about interoperability (data integration) and it is
the semantic framework that it creates that provides this. Once this is
solved then you need to provide access that provides a good balance between
precision and recall. However, this balance will depend upon the audience.
To achieve this we aggregate CRM paths to a higher and broader level with
accessible labels. These rules can be adjusted depending upon the audience
the UI is designed for.

Therefore people can use CRM with keyboardless graphical front ends for
tablets (drag and drop only) that use broader aggregations and fewer
relationships, or we can provide more precise paths for more research
orientated UIs. It is the underlying contextual relationships of CRM that
make the experience more interesting - but these do not have to be exposed
explicitly creating powerful but simple interfaces.

We can also configure these rules to bias particular areas of cultural
heritage, for example, some paths may be more useful in art history (and
make these paths user configurable). However, these are made possible by
the CRM in the first instance providing a link between macro and micro
views as they are required (possibly similar to a relational database view,
for example, just with contextual meaning).

While CRM can power a simple graphical tablet systems it can and equally
build more explicit interfaces that make exploration of scientific data
possible for scientists and conservators. The underlying data is the same
high quality representation used in different ways to help different
audiences explore. This helps also bring audiences together
(interoperability of people) for collaborative knowledge building.

FRBRoo is simply a specialisation of CRM classes and therefore anything
encoded in FRBRoo is already harmonised with other CRM data and is part of
the same abstraction I describe above. There are very few new classes in
FRBRoo - they are mostly sub classes of CRM. Because CRM integrates at the
different levels in the class hierarchy, bibliographic and performing arts
data can not only be integrated with other CH data but meaningful paths of
exploration can be used between them, and each can use the other for
additional context helping to discover new relationships.

There is an approved OWL version of CRM created in Germany. However, OWL is
not necessary for many things and we are using SPIN which allows us to
create reasoned views using simple SPARQL queries.

 Cheers,

 Dominic

Re: [MCN-L] Selling tickets from tablets

[Dave Barr]

I have been investigating an online ticket sales application called
AudienceView with my class at Centennial College this semester. AudienceView
is web optimized which allows for sales on tablets, and as part of the
optimization also provides for mobile sales and kiosk functionality. In
addition, the software provides a powerful CRM capability for use in
expanding sales and for fundraising/development/advancement.

Re: [MCN-L] Touch screen monitors

[Brent Brookler]

Hi Tamsen

Sharp makes touch screens up to 80 inches, they have 60 and 70 as well, but
not sure about 50 inches.

I am not sure how to lock down via the web, but we offer a solution for
both Mac and iPad, if you're interested.

Thanks!

Re: [MCN-L] Touch screen monitors

[Berg-Fulton, Tracey]

Hi Tamsen,
Brian Kennedy touched on this in his MCN talk about ditching Flash based 
interactives in favor of HTML based ones. In his talk (and maybe he'll chime in 
here?) he shared this toolkit he built for locking it down so people don't just 
surf the web/ the device doesn't auto populate information, etc: 
https://github.com/scimusmn/stele

I've forked it for myself, but because interactives aren't specifically part of 
my job, I haven't had a chance to dig in to it really deeply...yet...but it 
might be useful for you?

Cheers,
Tracey

Hello all,

We are looking into purchasing a touchscreen monitor for a web-based 
interactive component to our exhibition. We are looking for one approximately 
50". We'd also need to lock-down the "website". For iPads I do this with a 
combination of KioskPro and Guided Access. But these are Apple apps. Is there 
equivalent software for large touch monitors?

Does this list have any brand suggestions and/or specification suggestions such 
as: LED/LCD, output/input must-haves, what to avoid, what must be included?

Any other current recommendations?

Kioware  and Site Kiosk

Re: [MCN-L] LAM interoperability SIG?

[Amalyah Keshet]

Stefano:

The MCN listserv is the perfect place to discuss this.  That's what it exists 
for.  Anyone can join, it's open and uncomplicated.  Google groups and such are 
more complicated (rather a pain, in fact, sometimes), and not everyone has the 
time and patience to log into multiple platforms every day.  The best, most 
highly professional, international discussion groups I (for one) belong to are 
all listservs.

Thank you so much for your interest and for the very insightful contributions.

Given the large number of interested parties, I am wondering if we should kick

Thoughts?

A little late to the party, but please count The Henry Ford in on discussing 
LAM interoperability.  I touched on some of our efforts to better integrate 
archival materials with museum objects in my MCN 2015 presentation (link 
below), and was struck by how many folks responded to that.  I had been 
thinking of a more targeted presentation for next year

Subject: [MCN-L] Full-time application developer at the Art Institute
of  Chicago
Message-ID: <564cdba0.2060...@artic.edu>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"; Format="flowed"

All,

The Art Institute of Chicago is seeking a Senior Application Developer to work 
on their digital asset management system, called LAKE.

LAKE is a groundbreaking effort from a major museum to embrace standards-based, 
community-driven open source software to build its core data repository. This 
position offers plenty of learning and growth opportunities as well as a great 
team to collaborate with.

Ideally the candidate will have experience with the Fedora repository and 
Hydra, but we welcome any fast-learning and highly motivated candidate with a 
solid experience with Ruby, Python 3, Java, RDF and semantic stores.

See attached job description for details. Apply at 
https://hrweb.artic.edu/psc/HRPRODE/EMPLOYEE/HRMS/c/HRS_HRAM.HRS_APP_SCHJOB.GBL?FOCUS=Applicant=PORTAL_ROOT_OBJECT.HC_HRS_CE_GBL2=false=FolderPath%2cIsFolder
(job ID: 8961) or contact me in person (scossu at art ic period edu) for 
technical questions.

Thank you,
Stefano Cossu

Re: [MCN-L] Touch screen monitors

[Patrick Davis]

I just purchased Secure Lockdown from Inteset. What is nice is it allows me
to lock down any single application. So we can use the same program to lock
down a browser or a flash application. They do offer a chrome specific
version as well to control the chrome settings.

As far as monitors, Panasonic has a new 50" touch screen. I have been
purchasing from TechGlobal (http://techglobal.com/) for screens lately.
They are using PQLabs touch interfaces and NEC monitors mostly.
