Regular Expressions In Practice, Kathryn Lybarger
Regular Expressions In Practice, Kathryn Lybarger
Library Presentations
Regular expressions are not just for programmers anymore; they are supported by common software and systems used for cataloging and metadata, and allow for very powerful search and replace, even complete reformatting of library data! In this webinar, we’ll discuss the building blocks of regular expressions, practice identifying what they match (and do not match!), and consider how we can use them to make everyday library work more efficient.

The Changing Landscape Of Digital Collections, Kelley F. Rowan
The Changing Landscape Of Digital Collections, Kelley F. Rowan
Works of the FIU Libraries
This presentation explores the ways in which the Digital Collections Center (DCC) at FIU has been transforming from a primarily technical unit focused on the various processes involved in digitization and metadata creation to include a highly collaborative aspect. Over the past year, our DCC has been faced with the challenge of filling different roles. We have adapted our workflow to include a liaison model and significant outreach with other departments in the library and with our community partners. As we explore the impact this transformation has had on our workflow and partners, the hope is that other librarians and …

Managing Volume In Discovery Systems, Aaron Tay
Research Collection Library
The well-established measures of recall and precision are becoming increasingly relevant in WSD systems. Given the way that most people search, which is the simple keyword box that searches all text anywhere in the record, WSD systems will lead to increasingly large recall as we provide access to more linked items. Do we need to be careful about the sheer volume of items to which we can provide access via WSD systems? Do we want these systems to become another Google, where precision of results is not always as accurate as we would like? Are we too obsessed with the …

Library Presentations
As part of the Collaborative Federal Depository Program (CFDP), two pieces of software were developed to support the collection development activities of FDLP libraries in the Southeast. Most are very familiar with the ASERL Disposition Database, but some may have forgotten its quiet counter-part, the ASERL COE Database. This database is comprised of brief cataloging records that indicate holdings for all Center of Excellence (COE) libraries (and other contributing depository libraries) in the Southeast and serves as a tool for analyzing the completeness of COE collection(s) and to identify gaps.
To create a database that is as comprehensive as possible, …
