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.

Faculty Presentations
Provides an overview of how librarians in the Cataloging and Metadata Services (CAMS) department at the Ball State University Libraries (Muncie, IN) prepared for and implemented cataloging in RDA. Also covers the presenter’s training and evaluation of copy catalogers using RDA for monographic cataloging (books, ebooks, video recordings, maps) and the writing of local procedures.
Digital Preservation Efforts At Usm, Elizabeth La Beaud
Digital Preservation Efforts At Usm, Elizabeth La Beaud
Central Plains Network for Digital Asset Management
The University of Southern Mississippi (USM) has steadily been working to improve its digital preservation infrastructure over the past four years. In 2013, with funding from a NEH Preservation Assistance Grant, consultants Tom Clareson and Liz Bishoff conducted a digital preservation readiness assessment and jump started USM’s education on the topic. Since then, USM has added geographically distributed backups, manual fixity checks, manual metadata logs, and manual file format migrations to its arsenal with varying degrees of success. The influx in needed manpower and technical infrastructure precipitated a financial commitment from the university and the purchase of a robust digital …

Finding An Onramp To The Dpla: Loyola Marymount University's Collaboration With Calisphere, Shilpa Rele
Finding An Onramp To The Dpla: Loyola Marymount University's Collaboration With Calisphere, Shilpa Rele
LMU Librarian Publications & Presentations
The Loyola Marymount University library recently partnered with the Online Archive of California’s Calisphere to harvest metadata records from LMU’s Digital Collections. Partnering with Calisphere was a strategic move as Calisphere serves as an on-ramp for our digital collections in to the Digital Public Library of America (DPLA). Currently smaller institutions are unable to directly share their collections with the DPLA, hence this partnership between LMU and Calisphere. Once the content is in the DPLA, it will also result in greater discoverability and access to LMU’s Digital Collections. The process to harvest LMU’s metadata into Calisphere required signing an MOU …

The Future Of Law Libraries, Tina M. Brooks, Franklin L. Runge, Beau Steenken
Law Faculty Popular Media
Law libraries are filed with the rules that govern our society, thoughtful scholars, conscientious lawyers, some hard working students, and some procrastinating students. In the past, this required libraries to collect hardbound volumes and loose leafs. Today, the collection is beginning to give way to research platforms filed with those same, or similar, materials and then some; much of the primary legal documentation is even freely available on the web.
While the physical footprint of the library may be smaller as a result of this transition, the amount of legal information that researchers have access to has grown exponentially. We …
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 …

Starting Over: Coding To Work With Alma After Voyager, Kathryn Lybarger
Starting Over: Coding To Work With Alma After Voyager, Kathryn Lybarger
Library Presentations
When the University of Kentucky was a Voyager library, I wrote a variety of tools to support our processes, ranging from tiny one-line macros to larger software packages. Now that we've migrated to Alma/Primo, everything has changed! Many of the ways I extended Voyager are part of Alma by default, and Alma's community (and available APIs) encourage even further development. In this presentation, I will describe some differences between the two systems, how they affected the types of support tools I wanted, and the ways I was able to create them.
Assigning Rights Statements To Legacy Digital Collections, Laura Capell, Elliot Williams
Assigning Rights Statements To Legacy Digital Collections, Laura Capell, Elliot Williams
Library Articles, Papers, and Presentations
This poster outlines a project at the University of Miami Libraries to evaluate the rights status of legacy materials that have been digitized for online access in the UM Digital Collections, including photographs, manuscripts, publications, and maps from the Libraries’ Cuban Heritage Collection, Special Collections, and University Archives. The majority of the Libraries’ digital collections contained little rights-related information in their metadata. Adding rights information will enable us to contribute our content to DPLA, and will also, we hope, empower our users to understand how they can use our digitized content, in traditional and nontraditional ways. This poster presents our …

Managing Volume In Discovery Systems, Aaron Tay
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 …

Becoming The Gothic Archive: From Digital Collection To Digital Humanities, Rose Fortier, Heather G. James
Heather James
The Gothic Archive is the flagship digital humanities project for the Marquette University library. The project was birthed from a simple digital collection, and through the partnership of faculty and librarians, was transformed into something more. The core tenets of digital collection creation were adhered to in order to create a solid foundation upon which to build the Archive. The expertise of both groups and communication were key in the evolution of the collection, and in discovering and highlighting the relationships between the objects. This case study reviews the steps Marquette took in creating the collection and taking it to …

Uploading Records To The Coe Database: Easy As 1,2,3!, Sandra Mcaninch, Julene L. Jones, Mary Clark
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, …
