Anarchivist:

The Code4Lib community is a group of computer programmers and library technologists who largely work for and with libraries. It started as a [http://dewey.library.nd.edu/mailing-lists/code4lib/ mailing list] in the fall of 2003 when a group of library programmers decided to create an overarching community agnostic towards any particular language or technology. See this [[Media:Code4lib-prelist.pdf|email thread (PDF)]]. Soon after the mailing list was created the community decided to setup an [http://code4lib.org/irc IRC channel] named '''#code4lib''' (originally on Freenode, now on Libera).

===Code4Lib Conferences ===
In February of 2006 the first Code4Lib conference was held in Corvallis, Oregon, hosted by Oregon State University. Here is the [[Media:2006conf.pdf|official proposal]]. This initial Code4Lib conference was a hit, drawing over 80 attendees. The 2007 conference was held on the University of Georgia campus in Athens, GA attracting about 150 attendees. A list of Code4Lib conferences are available on the [http://code4lib.org/conference community website].

Code4Lib 2019 Conference Committees

Anarchivist: /* IRC and Slack Committee */

= Code4Lib 2019 Conference Committees =

Hosting a conference is incredibly complex, and it cannot be done without the help of the entire community. If you are interested in being an awesome person and applying your skills to a particular part of the Code4Lib 2019 conference, create an account on this wiki and sign-up for one or more of the groups below (please provide a contact). Each committee must have a Primary Contact (chair), Secondary Contact (co-chair), and Documentarian (secretary). The role of the Documentarian is to transcribe key information to future conference committees, such as timelines, costs, process, etc. Feel free to improve the summary statements for each of the committees. When adding your name, please indicate 'v' if you are a veteran on the committee so that we ensure committees are not made up entirely of newbies.

We will assign a local contact (LPC) to each committee.

Anarchivist: /* T-Shirt Committee */

Hosting a conference is incredibly complex, and it cannot be done without the help of the entire community. If you are interested in being an awesome person and applying your skills to a particular part of the Code4Lib 2019 conference, create an account on this wiki and sign-up for one or more of the groups below (please provide a contact). Each committee must have a Primary Contact (chair), Secondary Contact (co-chair), and Documentarian (secretary). The role of the Documentarian is to transcribe key information to future conference committees, such as timelines, costs, process, etc. Feel free to improve the summary statements for each of the committees. When adding your name, please indicate 'v' if you are a veteran on the committee so that we ensure committees are not made up entirely of newbies.

We will assign a local contact (LPC) to each committee.

Code4Lib 2019 Conference Committees

2018-09-20T16:25:33Z

Anarchivist: /* Code4Lib 2019 Host Voting Committee */

= Code4Lib 2019 Conference Committees =

Hosting a conference is incredibly complex, and it cannot be done without the help of the entire community. If you are interested in being an awesome person and applying your skills to a particular part of the Code4Lib 2019 conference, create an account on this wiki and sign-up for one or more of the groups below (please provide a contact). Each committee must have a Primary Contact (chair), Secondary Contact (co-chair), and Documentarian (secretary). The role of the Documentarian is to transcribe key information to future conference committees, such as timelines, costs, process, etc. Feel free to improve the summary statements for each of the committees. When adding your name, please indicate 'v' if you are a veteran on the committee so that we ensure committees are not made up entirely of newbies.

We will assign a local contact (LPC) to each committee.

Code4Lib 2018 Conference Committees

2018-01-20T20:15:00Z

Anarchivist: /* IRC and Slack Committee */

= Code4Lib 2018 Conference Committees =

Hosting a conference is incredibly complex, and it cannot be done without the help of the entire community. If you are interested in being an awesome person and applying your skills to a particular part of the Code4Lib 2018 conference, create an account on this wiki and sign-up for one or more of the groups below (please provide a contact). Each committee must have a Primary Contact (chair), Secondary Contact (co-chair), and Documentarian (secretary). The role of the Documentarian is to transcribe key information to future conference committees, such as timelines, costs, process, etc. Feel free to improve the summary statements for each of the committees. When adding your name, please indicate 'v' if you are a veteran on the committee so that we ensure committees are not made up entirely of newbies.

* We will assign a local contact (LPC) to each committee.

* The chair/co-chair of each committee will be added to the private Code4Lib Slack channel, #c4l18-lpc, for direct communication with the LPC. If you cannot access the channel, please ping @bohyunkim either in slack or twitter.

* All committees and committee members abides by [https://github.com/code4lib/antiharassment-policy/blob/master/code_of_conduct.md the Code4Lib Code of Conduct].
== Location and Dates ==

* Dates: we're looking at early February 2018
** Pre-conferences: Coming Soon but we're thinking they'll be at DCPL branches

** Post conference activities: Coming Soon but we're thinking tours of LC, Smithsonian, etc.

This will be a full day of self-selected barcamp style sessions. Anyone who wants to present can write down the topic on an index card and, after the keynote, we will vote to choose what we want to see. Attendees can also pick a topic and attempt to talk someone else into presenting on it.

If we run out of topics, we will pay homage to the project by testing patches for Drupal 8. It is easy, and we will show you how to do this invaluable task.

This event is open to the library community. There is a nominal fee ($10) for non-Code4LibCon attendees.

Local Drupal uber-ninja Larry Garfield had to cancel, but we were very fortunate to get Steve Persch to offer to stop by and answer questions and give us some guidance in the afternoon.

'''If you have not signed up. just show up and see Charlie or Cary. We will work out the details!'''

Are you interested in making it easier for users to obtain copies of known items? Do you feel your OpenURL and Interlibrary Loan software could be streamlined? This pre-conference workshop will focus on providing services that deliver content to users. Discovery systems are doing a better job of exposing library holdings but there's still a lot of work to do actually get the content in the users hands.

Possible topics/activities include:
* group discussion of what some libraries have done in this area
* comparisons of different approaches to addressing delivery
* overview of tools available
* sharing of strategies and experiences

===Intro to NoSQL Databases===
====1-470 Richard J. Daley Library, 9:00 am to 12:00 pm on Monday, February 11====
* Joshua Gomez, George Washington University, jngomez at gwu edu

Since Google published its paper on BigTable in 2006, alternatives to the traditional relational database model have been growing in both variety and popularity. These new databases (often referred to as NoSQL databases) excel at handling problems faced by modern information systems that the traditional relational model cannot. They are particularly popular among organizations tackling the so-called "Big Data" problems. However, there are always tradeoffs involved when making such dramatic changes. Understanding how these different kinds of databases are designed and what they can offer is essential to the decision making process. In this precon I will discuss some of the various types of new databases (key-value, columnar, document, graph) and walk through examples or exercises using some of their open source implementations like Riak, HBase, MongoDB or CouchDB, and Neo4j.

==Half Day Afternoon==
=== Data Visualization Hackfest ===
====1-470 Richard J. Daley Library, 1:30 pm to 5:30 pm on Monday, February 11====
* Chris Beer, cabeer at stanford.edu
* Dan Chudnov, dchud at gwu edu

* Description: Want to hack/design/plan/document on a team of people who enjoy learning by creating? Interested in data visualization? Well, this hackfest is for you. Not familiar with the concept of a hackfest? See Roy Tennant's [http://www.libraryjournal.com/article/CA332564.html "Where Librarians Go To Hack"] and the page for the [http://access2010.lib.umanitoba.ca/node/3.html Access 2010 Hackfest]. We propose a half-day hackfest with a focus on visualization library data -- think stuff like library catalog data, access/circulation statistics, etc. Here's how it works, roughly:
- we'll (you'll!) do lightning tutorials for some data visualization tools, toolkits (R? d3js? ?), datasets.
- we'll separate into groups and hack on stuff.
- at the end of the day, we'll present our progress.

Not a code hacker? No worries; all skill sets and backgrounds are valuable!

* Justin Coyne, Data Curation Experts (justin.coyne at curationexperts.com)
* Mark Bussey, Data Curation Experts (mark at curationexperts.com)

Hydra (http://projecthydra.org) is a free and open source repository solution that is being used by institutions on both sides of the North Atlantic to provide access to their digital content. Hydra provides a versatile and feature rich environment for end-users and repository administrators alike. Leveraging Blacklight as its front end discovery interface, the hydra project provides a suite of software components, data models, and design patterns for building a robust and sustainable digital repository, as well as a community of support for ongoing development. This workshop will provide an introduction to the hydra project and its software components. Attendees will leave with enough knowledge to get started building their own local repository solutions. This workshop will be led by Adam Wead of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

=== Intro to Blacklight ===
====1-1010 Richard J. Daley Library, 1:30 pm to 5:30 pm on Monday, February 11====
* Bess Sadler, Stanford University Library (bess at stanford.edu)
* Jason Ronallo, NC State (jronallo at gmail.com)
* Shaun Ellis (helper), Princeton University Library, (shaune@princeton.edu)

Blacklight (http://projectblacklight.org) is a free and open source discovery interface built on solr and ruby on rails. It is used by institutions such as Stanford University, NC State, WGBH, Johns Hopkins University, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and an ever expanding community of adopters and contributors. Blacklight can be used as a front-end discovery solution for an ILS, or the contents of a digital repository, or to provide a unified discovery solution for many siloed collections. In this workshop we will cover the basics of solr indexing and searching, setting up and customizing Blacklight, and leave time for Q&A around local issues people might encounter.

Note: this workshop will be tailored as a follow-on to the morning's RailsBridge Intro to Ruby on Rails workshop, but everyone is welcome

=== DPLA Intro/Hacking ===
==== Seminar Room A <s>1-470 of the Daley Library</s>, 1:30 - 5:30 pm Mon, February 11====
* Presenter(s)/Leader(s): Nate Hill (Chattanooga Public Library, DPLA Audience and Participation Co-chair), SJ Klein (Wikimedia, OLPC, DPLA Technical Aspects Co-chair), Jeff Licht (DPLA Technical Development Project Manager)

The [http://dp.la Digital Public Library of America] (DPLA) is an open source metadata repository that provides read-only access to millions of records from across the United States via an open REST API. All API queries are returned as JSON-LD, a lightweight linked data format, and the metadata is freely reusable under a CC0 public domain license. A front-end portal is currently under development and will be launched in April 2013, though it will serve as but one way into the DPLA’s data. The DPLA encourages the development of applications and tools by developers of all skill levels and backgrounds. In this workshop, participants will actively code against the API to make apps, visualization tools, plug-ins, and other interesting tools that make use of DPLA data.

Seminar A is now free. (as of 1:38pm) See you there! <strike>we will meet at 1-470 for an intro and move to a separate space to hack</strike>

=== Fail4lib ===

[https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ovChi-ViBagkp4MuhQEiBCOPuUh7hqaLRTY4Up2WvQY/edit?usp=sharing Fail4Lib notes]

====1-360 Richard J. Daley Library, 1:30 pm to 5:30 pm on Monday, February 11====
* Jason Casden, NCSU Libraries (jmcasden at ncsu.edu)
* Andreas Orphanides, NCSU Libraries (akorphan at ncsu.edu)

The Code4lib community is full of driven people who embrace the risks that are often associated with new projects. While these traits lead to the incredible projects that are presented at Code4lib, creative technical work also often leads to unexpected, vexing, or disappointing results even from eventually successful projects (however you define the term). Learning more about how our colleagues deal with failure in various contexts could lead to the development of better methods for communicating the value of productive failure, modifying project plans ("The Pivot"), and failing more cheaply.

Hopefully we can define the format as a group, but a fairly high level of participation is crucial if this is to be a worthwhile preconference. Some possible agenda items that could be mixed and matched to fill the afternoon:

# Given willing presenters, a series of 10-20 minute presentations that go into some depth about specific failures.
# Depending on the number of participants, either a multi- or single-track series of unconference-like themed discussions on various aspects of failure, possibly including themes like:
#* Technical failure
#* Failure to effectively address a real user need
#* Overinvestment
#* Outreach/Promotion failure
#* Design/UX failure
#* Project team communication failure
#* Missed opportunities (risk-averse failure)
#* Successes gleaned from failures
# A panel of participants who have prepared in advance to answer moderator and audience questions about their experience with failure.
# A prepared reading assignment that we could all forget to read, creating a shared fail in order to start the preconference on the right foot.

I'll serve as a moderator (if needed) and participant and would welcome more organizers. I am happy to be outvoted by participants on any of these points--I just want to get us talking about our screw-ups, blind spots, and anvils dropping from the sky.

=== Solr 4 In Depth ===
====UIC Forum, Room F, 1:30 pm to 5:30 pm on Monday, February 11====
* Contact: Erik Hatcher (erik.hatcher at lucidworks.com)

The long awaited and much anticipated Solr 4 has been released! It's a really big deal. There are so many improvements, it makes the head spin. This session will cover the major feature improvements from Lucene's flexible indexing and scoring API up through SolrCloud in a digestable half-day format. Sounds like this is an evening thing that might happen at a bar somewhere?

</pre>

== VuFind 2.0: Why and How? ==

* Demian Katz, Villanova University, demian.katz@villanova.edu

A major new version of the VuFind discovery software is currently in development. While VuFind 1.x remains extremely popular, some of its components are beginning to show their age. VuFind 2.0 aims to retain all the strengths of the previous version of the software while making the architecture cleaner, more modern and more standards-based. This presentation will examine the motivation behind the update, preview some of the new features to look forward to, and discuss the challenges of creating a developer-friendly open source package in PHP.

== Open Source Software Registry ==

* [[User:DataGazetteer|Peter Murray]], LYRASIS, Peter.Murray@lyrasis.org

LYRASIS is creating and shepherding a [[Registry_E-R_Diagram|registry of library open source software]] as part of its [http://www.lyrasis.org/News/Press-Releases/2011/LYRASIS-Receives-Grant-to-Support-Open-Source.aspx grant from the Mellon Foundation to support the adoption of open source software by libraries].
The goal of the grant is to help libraries of all types determine if open source software is right for them, and what combination of software, hosting, training, and consulting works for their situation.
The registry is intended to become a community exchange point and stimulant for growth of the library open source ecosystem by connecting libraries with projects, service providers, and events.

The first half of this session will demonstrate the registry functions and describe how projects and providers can get involved.
The second half of the session will be a brainstorming suggestion of how to expand the functionality and usefulness of the registry.

== Property Graphs And TinkerPop Applications in Digital Libraries ==

* Brian Tingle, California Digital Library, brian.tingle.cdlib.org@gmail.com

[http://www.tinkerpop.com/ TinkerPop] is an open source software development group focusing on technologies in the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_database graph database] space.
This talk will provide a general introduction to the TinkerPop Graph Stack and the [https://github.com/tinkerpop/gremlin/wiki/Defining-a-Property-Graph property graph model] is uses. The introduction will include code examples and explanations of the property graph models used by the [http://socialarchive.iath.virginia.edu/ Social Networks in Archival Context] project and show how the historical social graph is exposed as a JSON/REST API implemented by a TinkerPop [https://github.com/tinkerpop/rexster rexster] [https://github.com/tinkerpop/rexster-kibbles Kibble] that contains the application's graph theory logic. Other graph database applications possible with TinkerPop such as RDF support, and citation analysis will also be discussed.

== Security in Mind ==

* Erin Germ, United States Naval Academy, Nimitz Library, germ@usna.edu

I would like to talk about security of library software.

Over the Summer, I discovered a critical vulnerability in a vendor’s software that (verified) allowed me to assume any user’s identity for that site, (verified) switch to any user, and to (unverified, meaning I didn’t not perform this as I didn’t want to “hack” another library’s site) assume the role of any user for any other library who used this particular vendor's software.

Within a 3 hour period, I discovered a 2 vulnerabilities: 1) minor one allowing me to access any backups from any library site, and 2) a critical vulnerability. From start to finish, the examination, discovery in the vulnerability, and execution of a working exploit was done in less than 2 hours. The vulnerability was a result of poor cookie implementation. The exploit itself revolved around modifying the cookie, and then altering the browser’s permissions by assuming the role of another user.

I do not intend on stating which vendor it was, but I will show how I was able to perform this. If needed, I can do further research and “investigation” into other vendor's software to see what I can “find”.

''If selected, I will contact the vendor to inform them that I will present about this at C4L2012. I do not intend on releasing the name of the vendor.''

== Search Engines and Libraries ==

* Greg Lindahl, blekko CTO, greg@blekko.com

[https://blekko.com blekko] is a new web-scale search engine which enables end-users to create vertical search engines, through a feature called [http://help.blekko.com/index.php/category/slashtags/ slashtags]. Slashtags can contain as few as 1 or as many as tens of thousands of websites relevant to a narrow or broad topic. We have an extensive set of slashtags curated by a combination of volunteers and an in-house librarian team, or end-users can create and share their own. This talk will cover examples of slashtag creation relevant to libraries, and show how to embed this search into a library website, either using javascript or via our API.

''We have exhibited at a couple of library conferences, and have received a lot of interest. blekko is a free service.''

== Beyond code: Versioning data with Git and Mercurial. ==

* Charlie Collett, California Digital Library, charlie.collett@ucop.edu
* Martin Haye, California Digital Library, martin.haye@ucop.edu

Within a relatively short time since their introduction, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_Version_Control_System distributed version control systems] (DVCS) like [http://git-scm.com/ Git] and [http://mercurial.selenic.com/ Mercurial] have enjoyed widespread adoption for versioning code. It didn’t take long for the library development community to start discussing the potential for using DVCS within our applications and repositories to version data. After all, many of the features that have made some of these systems popular in the open source community to version code (e.g. lightweight, file-based, compressed, reliable) also make them compelling options for versioning data. And why write an entire versioning system from scratch if a DVCS solution can be a drop-in solution? At the [http://www.cdlib.org/ California Digital Library] (CDL) we’ve started using Git and Mercurial in some of our applications to version data. This has proven effective in some situations and unworkable in others. This presentation will be a practical case study of CDL’s experiences with using DVCS to version data. We will explain how we’re incorporating Git and Mercurial in our applications, describe our successes and failures and consider the issues involved in repurposing these systems for data versioning.

==Design for Developers==

*Lisa Kurt, University of Nevada, Reno, lkurt@unr.edu

Users expect good design. This talk will delve into what makes really great design, what to look for, and how to do it. Learn the principles of great design to take your applications, user interfaces, and projects to a higher level. With years of experience in graphic design and illustration, Lisa will discuss design principles, trends, process, tools, and development. Design examples will be from her own projects as well as a variety from industry. You’ll walk away with design knowledge that you can apply immediately to a variety of applications and a number of top notch go-to resources to get you up and running.

==Building research applications with Mendeley==

William Gunn, Mendeley william.gunn@mendeley.com (@mrgunn)

This is partly a tool talk and partly a big idea one.

Mendeley has built the world's largest open database of research and we've now begun to collect some interesting social metadata around the document metadata. I would like to share with the Code4Lib attendees information about using this resource to do things within your application that have previously been impossible for the library community, or in some cases impossible without expensive database subscriptions. One thing that's now possible is to augment catalog search by surfacing information about content usage, allowing people to not only find things matching a query, but popular things or things read by their colleagues. In addition to augmenting search, you can also use this information to augment discovery. Imagine an online exhibit of artifacts from a newly discovered dig not just linking to papers which discuss the artifact, but linking to really good interesting papers about the place and the people who made the artifacts. So the big idea is, "How will looking at the literature from a broader perspective than simple citation analysis change how research is done and communicated? How can we build tools that make this process easier and faster?" I can show some examples of applications that have been built using the Mendeley and PLoS APIs to begin to address this question, and I can also present results from Mendeley's developer challenge which shows what kinds of applications researchers are looking for, what kind of applications peope are building, and illustrates some interesting places where the two don't overlap.

Slides from my talk are here: http://db.tt/PMaqFoVw

==Your UI can make or break the application (to the user, anyway)==

* Robin Schaaf, University of Notre Dame, schaaf.4@nd.edu

UI development is hard and too often ends up as an after-thought to computer programmers - if you were a CS major in college I'll bet you didn't have many, if any, design courses. I'll talk about how to involve the users upfront with design and some common pitfalls of this approach. I'll also make a case for why you should do the screen design before a single line of code is written. And I'll throw in some ideas for increasing usability and attractiveness of your web applications. I'd like to make a case study of the UI development of our open source ERMS.

==Why Nobody Knows How Big The Library Really Is - Perspective of a Library Outside Turned Insider==

* Patrick Berry, California State University, Chico, pberry@csuchico.edu

In this talk I would like to bring the perspective of an "outsider" (although an avowed IT insider) to let you know that people don't understand the full scope of the library. As we "rethink education", it is incumbent upon us to help educate our institutions as to the scope of the library. I will present some of the tactics I'm employing to help people outside, and in some cases inside, the library to understand our size and the value we bring to the institution.

==Building a URL Management Module using the Concrete5 Package Architecture==

* David Uspal, Villanova University, david.uspal@villanova.edu

Keeping track of URLs utilized across a large website such as a university library, and keeping that content up to date for subject and course guides, can be a pain, and as an open source shop, we’d like to have open source solution for this issue. For this talk, I intend to detail our solution to this issue by walking step-by-step through the building process for our URL Management module -- including why a new solution was necessary; a quick rundown of our CMS ([http://www.concrete5.org Concrete5], a CMS that isn’t Drupal); utilizing the Concrete5 APIs to isolate our solution from core code (to avoid complications caused by core updates); how our solution was integrated into the CMS architecture for easy installation; and our future plans on the project.

==Building an NCIP connector to OpenSRF to facilitate resource sharing==

* Jon Scott, Lyrasis, jon_scott@wsu.edu and Kyle Banerjee, Orbis Cascade Alliance, banerjek@uoregon.edu

How do you reverse engineer any protocol to provide a new service? Humans (and worse yet, committees) often design verbose protocols built around use cases that don't line up current reality. To compound difficulties, the contents of protocol containers are not sufficiently defined/predictable and the only assistance available is sketchy documentation and kind individuals on the internet willing to share what they learned via trial by fire.

NCIP (Niso Circulation Interchange Protocol) is an open standard that defines a set of messages to support exchange of circulation data between disparate circulation, interlibrary loan, and related applications -- widespread adoption of NCIP would eliminate huge amounts of duplicate processing in separate systems.

This presentation discusses how we learned enough about NCIP and OpenSRF from scratch to build an NCIP responder for Evergreen to facilitate resource sharing in a large consortium that relies on over 20 different ILSes.

==Practical Agile: What's Working for Stanford, Blacklight, and Hydra==

* Naomi Dushay, Stanford University Libraries, ndushay@stanford.edu

Agile development techniques can be difficult to adopt in the context of library software development. Maybe your shop has only one or two developers, or you always have too many simultaneous projects. Maybe your new projects can’t be started until 27 librarians reach consensus on the specifications.

This talk will present successful Agile- and Silicon-Valley-inspired practices we’ve adopted at Stanford and/or in the Blacklight and Hydra projects. We’ve targeted developer happiness as well as improved productivity with our recent changes. User stories, dead week, sight lines … it’ll be a grab bag of goodies to bring back to your institution, including some ideas on how to adopt these practices without overt management buy in.

==Quick and <strike>Dirty</strike> Clean Usability: Rapid Prototyping with Bootstrap==

* Shaun Ellis, Princeton University Libraries, shaune@princeton.edu

''"The code itself is unimportant; a project is only as useful as people actually find it." - Linus Torvalds'' [http://bit.ly/p4uuyy]

Usability has been a buzzword for some time now, but what is the process for making the the transition toward a better user experience, and hence, better designed library sites? I will discuss the one facet of the process my team is using to redesign the Finding Aids site for Princeton University Libraries (still in development). The approach involves the use of rapid prototyping, with Bootstrap [http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/], to make sure we are on track with what users and stakeholders expect up front, and throughout the development process.

Because Bootstrap allows for early and iterative user feedback, it is more effective than the historic Photoshop mockups/wireframe technique. The Photoshop approach allows stakeholders to test the look, but not the feel -- and often leaves developers scratching their heads. Being a CSS/HTML/Javascript grid-based framework, Bootstrap makes it easy for anyone with a bit of HTML/CSS chops to quickly build slick, interactive prototypes right in the browser -- tangible solutions which can be shared, evaluated, revised, and followed by all stakeholders (see Minimum Viable Products [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum_viable_product]). Efficiency is multiplied because the customized prototypes can flow directly into production use, as is the goal with iterative development approaches, such as the Agile methodology.

While Bootstrap is not the only framework that offers grid-based layout, development is expedited and usability is enhanced by Bootstraps use of of "prefabbed" conventional UI patterns, clean typography, and lean Javascript for interactivity. Furthermore, out-of-the box Bootstrap comes in a fairly neutral palette, so focus remains on usability, and does not devolve into premature discussions of color or branding choices. Finally, using Less can be a powerful tool in conjunction with Bootstrap, but is not necessary. I will discuss the pros and cons, and offer examples for how to getting up and running with or without Less.

==Search Engine Relevancy Tuning - A Static Rank Framework for Solr/Lucene==

* Mike Schultz, formerly Summon Search Architect, mike.schultz@gmail.com

Solr/Lucene provides a lot of flexibility for adjusting relevancy scoring and improving search results. Roughly speaking there are two areas of concern: Firstly, a 'dynamic rank' calculation that is a function of the user query and document text fields. And secondly, a 'static rank' which is independent of the query and generally is a function of non-text document metadata. In this talk I will outline an easily understood, hand-tunable static rank system with a minimal number of parameters.

The obvious major feature of a search engine is to return results relevant to a user query. Perhaps less obvious is the huge role query independent document features play in achieving that. Google's PageRank is an example of a static ranking of web pages based on links and other secret sauce. In the Summon service, our 800 million documents have features like publication date, document type, citation count and Boolean features like the-article-is-peer-reviewed. These fields aren't textual and remain 'static' from query to query, but need to influence a document's relevancy score. In our search results, with all query related features being equal, we'd rather have more recent documents above older ones, Journals above Newspapers, and articles that are peer reviewed above those that are not. The static rank system I will describe achieves this and has the following features:

* Query-time only calculation - nothing is baked into the index - with parameters adjustable at query time.
* The system is based on a signal metaphor where components are 'wired' together. System components allow multiplexing, amplifying, summing, tunable band-pass filtering, string-to-value-mapping all with a bare minimum of parameters.
* An intuitive approach for mixing dynamic and static rank that is more effective than simple adding or multiplying.
* A way of equating disparate static metadata types that leads to understandable results ordering.

==Submitting Digitized Book-like things to the Internet Archive==

* Joel Richard, Smithsonian Institution Libraries, richardjm@si.edu

The Smithsonian Libraries has submitted thousands of out-of-copyright items to the Internet Archive over the years. Specifically in relation to the Biodiversity Heritage Library, we have developed an in-house boutique scanning and upload process that became a learning experience in automated uploading to the Archive. As part of the software development, we created a whitepaper that details the combined learning experiences of the Smithsonian Libraries and the Missouri Botanical Garden. We will discuss some of the the contents of this whitepaper in the context of our scanning process and the manner in which we upload items to the Archive.

Our talk will include a discussion of the types of files and their formats used by the Archive, processes that the Archive performs on uploaded items, ways of interacting and affecting those processes, potential pitfalls and solutions that you may encounter when uploading, and tools that the Archive provides to help monitor and manage your uploaded documents.

Finally, we'll wrap up with a brief summary of how to use things that are on the Internet Archive in your own websites.

== So... you think you want to Host a Code4Lib National Conference, do you? ==

* Elizabeth Duell, Orbis Cascade Alliance, eduell@uoregon.edu

Are you interested in hosting your own Code4Lib Conference? Do you know what it would take? What does BEO stands for? What does F&B Minimum mean? Who would you talk to for support/mentoring? There are so many things to think about: internet support, venue size, rooming blocks, contracts, dietary restrictions and coffee (can't forget the coffee!) just to name a few. Putting together a conference of any size can look daunting, so let's take the scary out of it and replace it with a can do attitude!

Be a step ahead of the game by learning from the people behind the curtain. Ask questions and be given templates/ cheat sheets!

== HTML5 Microdata and Schema.org ==

* Jason Ronallo, North Carolina State University Libraries, jason_ronallo@ncsu.edu

When the big search engines announced support for HTML5 microdata and the schema.org vocabularies, the balance of power for semantic markup in HTML shifted.
* What is microdata?
* Where does microdata fit with regards to other approaches like RDFa and microformats?
* Where do libraries stand in the worldview of Schema.org and what can they do about it?
* How can implementing microdata and schema.org optimize your sites for search engines?
* What tools are available?

== Stack View: A Library Browsing Tool ==

* Annie Cain, Harvard Library Innovation Lab, acain@law.harvard.edu

In an effort to recreate and build upon the traditional method of browsing a physical library, we used catalog data, including dimensions and page count, to create a [http://librarylab.law.harvard.edu/projects/stackview/ virtual shelf].

This CSS and JavaScript backed visualization allows items to sit on any number of different shelves, really taking advantage of its digital nature. See how we built Stack View on top of our data and learn how you can create shelves of your own using our open source code.

== “Linked-Data-Ready” Software for Libraries ==

* Jennifer Bowen, University of Rochester River Campus Libraries, jbowen@library.rochester.edu

Linked data is poised to replace MARC as the basis for the new library bibliographic framework. For libraries to benefit from linked data, they must learn about it, experiment with it, demonstrate its usefulness, and take a leadership role in its deployment.

The eXtensible Catalog Organization (XCO) offers open-source software for libraries that is “linked-data-ready.” XC software prepares MARC and Dublin Core metadata for exposure to the semantic web, incorporating FRBR Group 1 entities and registered vocabularies for RDA elements and roles. This presentation will include a software demonstration, proposed software architecture for creation and management of linked data, a vision for how libraries can migrate from MARC to linked data, and an update on XCO progress toward linked data goals.

== How people search the library from a single search box ==

* Cory Lown, North Carolina State University Libraries, cory_lown@ncsu.edu

Searching the library is complex. There's the catalog, article databases, journal title and database title look-ups, the library website, finding aids, knowledge bases, etc. How would users search if they could get to all of these resources from a single search box? I'll share what we've learned about single search at NCSU Libraries by tracking use of QuickSearch (http://www.lib.ncsu.edu/search/index.php?q=aerospace+engineering), our home-grown unified search application. As part of this talk I will suggest low-cost ways to collect real world use data that can be applied to improve search. I will try to convince you that data collection must be carefully planned and designed to be an effective tool to help you understand what your users are telling you through their behavior. I will talk about how the fragmented library resource environment challenges us to provide useful and understandable search environments. Finally, I will share findings from analyzing millions of user transactions about how people search the library from a production single search box at a large university library.

== An Incremental Approach to Archival Description and Access ==

* Chela Scott Weber, New York University Libraries, chelascott@gmail.com
* Mark A. Matienzo, Yale University Library, mark@matienzo.org

An ongoing problem for many archives and special collections units is a lack of technological infrastructure and ongoing support. Funding for many archival programs arrives on a project-by-project basis, often in the form of grants. One of the largest concerns for archivist, therefore, is ensuring the sustainability of any solutions or processes that support core operations, such as archival description and access systems.

The presenters will describe their experience developing an iterative and sustainable approach to archival description and access at the library of a small historical society. Starting with mostly OCRed legacy finding aids and no online access to collections, and ending with structured data about the entirety of their holdings available online over three years time, we will detail the evolution of the work from problem-solving through to the resulting phases of descriptive work and development of a basic online access portal created in WordPress. We will discuss making reasonable and sustainable choices in an environment with little monetary and technical support, and how the organization's staff were able to build a system and processes that could leverage messy legacy metadata initially and grow to use structured, standardized data as it was created. We will also discuss the specific technical solutions we developed (the WordPress instance and supporting plugins) and our experience with how bugs and barriers outside of our control changed our insights.

== Making the Easy Things Easy: A Generic ILS API ==

* Wayne Schneider, Hennepin County Library, wschneider@hclib.org

Some stuff we try to do is complicated, because, let's face it, library data is hard. Some stuff, on the other hand, should be easy. Given an item identifier, I should be able to look at item availability. Given a title identifier, I should be able to place a request. And no, I shouldn't have to parse through the NCIP specification or write a SIP client to do it.

This talk will present work we have done on a web services approach to an API for traditional library transactional data, including example applications.

== Your Catalog in Linked Data==

* Tom Johnson, Oregon State University Libraries, thomas.johnson@oregonstate.edu

Linked Library Data activity over the last year has seen bibliographic data sets and vocabularies proliferating from traditional library
sources. We've reached a point where regular libraries don't have to go it alone to be on the Semantic Web. There is a quickly growing pool of things we can actually ''link to'', and everyone's existing data can be immediately enriched by participating.

This is a quick and dirty road to getting your catalog onto the Linked Data web. The talk will take you from start to finish, using Free Software tools to establish a namespace, put up a SPARQL endpoint, make a simple data model, convert MARC records to RDF, and link the results to major existing data sets (skipping conveniently over pesky processing time). A small amount of "why linked data?" content will be covered, but the primary goal is to leave you able to reproduce the process and start linking your catalog into the web of data. Appropriate documentation will be on the web.

== Getting the Library into the Learning Management System using Basic LTI ==

* David Walker, California State University, dwalker@calstate.edu

The integration of library resources into learning management systems (LMS) has long been something of a holy grail for academic libraries. The ability to deliver targeted library systems and services to students and faculty directly within their online course would greatly simplify access to library resources. Yet, the technical barriers to achieving that goal have to date been formidable.

The recently released Learning Tool Interoperability (LTI) protocol, developed by IMS, now greatly simplifies this process by allowing libraries (and others) to develop and maintain “tools” that function like a native plugin or building block within the LMS, but ultimately live outside of it. In this presentation, David will provide an overview of Basic LTI, a simplified subset (or profile) of the wider LTI protocol, showing how libraries can use this to easily integrate their external systems into any major LMS. He’ll showcase the work Cal State has done to do just that.

== Turn your Library Proxy Server into a Honeypot ==

* Calvin Mah, Simon Fraser University, calvinm@sfu.ca (@calvinmah)

Ezproxy has provided libraries with a useful tool for providing patrons with offsite online access to licensed electronic resources. This has not gone unnoticed for the unscrupulous users of the Internet who are either unwilling or unable to obtain legitimate access to these materials for themselves. Instead, they buy or share hacked university computing accounts for unauthorized access. When undetected, abuse of compromised university accounts can lead to abuse of vendor resources which lead to the blocking of the entire campus block of IP addresses from accessing that resource.

Simon Fraser University Library has been pro actively detecting and thwarting unauthorized attempts through log analysis. Since SFU has begun analysing our ezproxy logs, the number of new SFU login credentials which are posted and shared in publicly accessible forums has been reduced to zero. Since our log monitoring began in 2008, the annual average number of SFU login credentials that are compromised or hacked is 140. Instead of being a single point of weakness in campus IT security, the library’s proxy server is a honeypot exposing weak passwords, keystroke logging trojans installed on patron PCs and campus network password sniffers.

This talk will discuss techniques such as geomapping login attempts, strategies such as seeding phishing attempts and tools such as statistical log analysis used in detecting compromised login credentials.

== Relevance Ranking in the Scholarly Domain ==

* Tamar Sadeh, PhD, Ex Libris Group, tamar.sadeh@exlibrisgroup.com

The greatest challenge for discovery systems is how to provide users with the most relevant search results, given the immense landscape of available content. In a manner that is similar to human interaction between two parties, in which each person adjusts to the other in tone, language, and subject matter, discovery systems would ideally be sophisticated and flexible enough to adjust their algorithms to individual users and each user’s information needs.

When evaluating the relevance of an item to a specific user in a specific context, relevance-ranking algorithms need to take into account, in addition to the degree to which the item matches the query, information that is not embodied in the item itself. Such information, which includes the item’s scholarly value, the type of search that the user is conducting (e.g., an exploratory search or a known-item search), and other factors, enables a discovery system to fulfill user expectations that have been shaped by experience with Web search engines.

The session will focus on the challenges of developing and evaluating relevance-ranking algorithms for the scholarly domain. Examples will be drawn mainly from the relevance-ranking technology deployed by the Ex Libris Primo discovery solution.

== Mobile Library Catalog using Z39.50 ==

* James Paul Muir, The Ohio State University, muir.29@osu.edu

A talk about putting a new spin on an age-old technology, creating a universal interface, which exposes any Z39.50 capable library catalog as a simple, useful and universal REST API for use in native mobile apps and mobile web.

The talk includes the exploration and demonstration of the Ohio State University’s native app “OSU Mobile” for iOS and Android and shows how the library catalog search was integrated.

The backbone of the project is a REST API, which was created in a weekend using a PHP framework that translates OPAC XML results from the Z39.50 interface into mobile-friendly JSON formatting.

Raw Z39.50 search results contain all MARC information as well as local holdings.
Configurable search fields and the ability to select which fields to include in the JSON output make this solution a perfect fit for any Z39.50-capable library catalog.

Looking forward, possibilities for expansion include the use of Off Campus Sign-In for online resources so mobile patrons can directly access online resources from a smartphone (included in the Android version of OSU Mobile) as well as integration with library patron account.

Enjoy this alternative to writing a custom OPAC adapter or using a 3rd party service for exposing library records and use the proven and universal Z39.50 interface directly against your library catalog.

== DMPTool: Guidance and resources to build a data management plan ==

* Marisa Strong, California Digital Libary, marisa.strong@ucop.edu

A number of U.S. funding agencies such as the National Science Foundation require researchers to supply detailed plans for managing research data, called Data Management Plans. To help researchers with this requirement, the California Digital Library (CDL) along with several organizations, collaborated to develop the DMPTool. The goal is to provide researchers with guidance, links to resources and help with writing data management plans.

This open-source, Ruby on Rails software tool is hosted on a SLES VM by CDL. The tool is integrated with Shibboleth, federated single sign-on software, which allows users to login via their home institutions. We had a geographically distributed development team sharing their code on Bitbucket.

This talk will demo features of the application, the Shibboleth login architecture, as well as highlight the agile development practices and methods used to successfully design and build the application on an aggressive schedule.

== Lies, Damned Lies, and Lines of Code Per Day ==

* James Stuart, Columbia University, james.stuart@columbia.edu

We've all heard about that one study that showed that Pair Programming was 20% efficient than working alone. Or maybe you saw on a blog that study that showed that programmers who write fewer lines of code per day are more efficient...or was it less efficient? And of course, we all know that programmers who work in (Ruby|Python|Java|C|Erlang) have been shown to be more efficient.

A quick examination of some of the research surrounding programming efficiency and methodology, with a focus on personal productivity, and how to incorporate the more believable research into your own team's workflow.

==An Anatomy of a Book Viewer==

*Mohammed Abuouda, Bibliotheca Alexandrina, mohammed.abuouda@bibalex.org

Bibliotheca Alexandria (BA) hosts 210,000 digital books in different languages available at http://dar.bibalex.org. It includes the largest collection of digitized Arabic books. Using open source tools, BA has developed a modular book viewer that can be deployed in any environment to provide the users with a great personalized reading experience. BA’s book viewer provides several services that make this possible: morphological search in different languages, localization, server load balancing, scalability and image processing. Personalization features includes different types of annotation such as sticky notes, highlighting and underlining. It also provides the ability to embed the viewer in any webpage and change its skin.

In this talk we will describe the book viewer architecture, its modular design and how to incorporate it in your current environment.

== Carrier: Digital Signage System ==

* [[User:jmspargu|Justin Spargur]], The University of Arizona, spargurj@u.library.arizona.edu

Carrier is a web-based digital signage application written using JavaScript, PHP, MySQL that can be used on any device with an internet connection and a web browser. Used across the University of Arizona Libraries campuses, Carrier can display any web-based content, allowing users to promote new library collections and services via images, web pages, or videos. Users can easily manage the order in which slides are delivered, manage the length that slides are displayed for, set dates for when slides should be shown, and even specify specific locations where slides should be presented.

In addition to marketing purposes, Carrier can be used to send both low and high priority alerts to patrons. Alerts can be sent through the administrative interface, via RSS feeds, and even through a Twitter feed, allowing for easy integration with existing campus emergency notification systems.

I will describe the technical underpinnings of Carrier, challenges that we’ve faced since its implementation, enhancements planned for the next release of the software, and discuss our plans for releasing this software for others to use '''for free'''.

== We Built It. They Came. Now What? ==

* [[User:evviva|Evviva Weinraub]], Oregon State University, evviva.weinraub@oregonstate.edu

You have a great idea for something new or useful. You build it, put it out there on GitHub, do a couple of presentations, maybe a press release and BAM, suddenly you’ve created a successful Open Source tool that others are using. Great!

Fast-forward 3 years.

You still believe in the product, but you can no longer be solely responsible for taking care of it. Just putting it out there has made it a tool others use, but how do you find a community of folks who believe in the product as much as you do and are willing to commit the time and energy into building, sustaining and moving this project forward. Or just figuring out if you should bother trying?

In 2006, OSU Libraries built an Interactive Course Assignment system called Library a la Carte – think LibGuides only Open Source. We now find ourselves in just this predicament.

What can we do as a community to move beyond our build-first-ask-questions-later mentality and embed sustainability into our new and existing ideas and products without moving toward commercialization? I fully expect we’ll end up with more questions than answers, but let’s spend some talking about our predicament and yours and think about how we can come out the other side.

== Contextually Rich Collections Without the Risk: Digital Forensics and Automated Data Triage for Digital Collections ==

* [[User:kamwoods|Kam Woods]], University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, kamwoods@email.unc.edu
* Cal Lee, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, callee -- at -- ils -- unc -- edu

Digital libraries and archives are increasingly faced with a significant backlog of unprocessed data along with an accelerating stream of incoming material. These data often arrive from donor organizations, institutions, and individuals on hard drives, optical and magnetic disks, flash memory devices, and even complete hardware (traditional desktop computers and mobile systems).

Information on these devices may be sensitive, obscured by operating system arcana, or require specialized tools and procedures to parse. Furthermore, the sheer volume of materials being handled means that even simple tasks such as providing useful content reports can be impractical (or impossible) in current workflows.

Many of the tasks currently associated with data triage and analysis can be simplified and performed with improved coverage and accuracy through the use of open source digital forensics tools. In this talk we will discuss recent developments in providing digital librarians and archivists with simple, open source tools to accomplish these tasks. We will discuss tools and methods be tested, developed and packaged as part of the [http://bitcurator.net BitCurator] project. These tools can be used to reduce or eliminate laborious, error-prone tasks in existing workflows and put valuable time back into the hands of digital librarians and archivists -- time better used to identify and tackle complex tasks that *cannot* be solved by software.

== Finding Movies with FRBR and Facets ==

* Kelley McGrath, University of Oregon, kelleym@uoregon.edu

How might the Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR) model and faceted navigation improve access to film and video in libraries? I will describe the design and implementation of a FRBR-inspired prototype discovery interface ([http://blazing-sunset-24.heroku.com/ http://blazing-sunset-24.heroku.com/]) using Solr and Blacklight . This approach demonstrates how FRBR can enable a work-centric view that is focused on the original movie or program while supporting users in selecting an appropriate version.

The prototype features two sets of facets, which independently address two important information needs: (1) "What kind of movie or program do you want to watch?" (e.g., a 1970s TV sitcom, something directed by Kurosawa, or an early German horror film); (2) "How do you want to watch it? Where do you want to get it from?" (e.g., on Blu-ray, with Spanish subtitles, available at the local public library). This structure enables patrons to narrow, broaden and pivot across facet values instead of limiting them to the tree-structured hierarchy common with existing FRBR applications.

This type of interface requires controlled data values mapped to FRBR group 1 entities, which in many cases are not available in existing MARC bibliographic records. I will discuss ongoing work using the XC Metadata Services Toolkit ([http://www.extensiblecatalog.org/ http://www.extensiblecatalog.org/]) to extract and normalize data from existing MARC records for videos in order to populate a FRBRized, faceted discovery interface.

==Escaping the Black Box — Building a Platform to Foster Collaborative Innovation==

* Karen Coombs, OCLC, coombsk@oclc.org
* Kathryn Harnish, OCLC harnishk@oclc.org

Exposed Web services offer an unprecedented opportunity for collaborative innovation — that’s one of the hallmarks of Web-based services like Amazon, Google, and Facebook. These environments are popular not only for their native feature sets, but also for the array of community-developed apps that can run in them. The creativity of the development communities that work in these systems brings new value to all types of users.

What if the library community could realize this same level of collaborative innovation around its systems? What kinds of support would be necessary to transform library systems from “black boxes” to more open, accessible environments in which value is created and multiplied by the user community?

In this session, we’ll discuss the challenges and opportunities OCLC faced in creating just that kind of environment. The recently-released OCLC “cooperative platform” provides improved access to a wide variety of OCLC’s data and services, allowing library developers and other interested partners to collaborate, innovate, and share new solutions with fellow libraries. We’ll describe the open standards and technologies we’ve put in play in as we:
* exposed robust Web services that provide access to both data and business logic;
* created an architecture for integrating community-built applications in OCLC (and other) products; and
* developed an infrastructure to support community development, collaboration, and app sharing

Learn how OCLC is helping to open the “black box” -- and give libraries the freedom to become true partners in the evolution of their library systems.

== Code inheritance; or, The Ghosts of Perls Past ==

* Jon Gorman, University of Illinois, jtgorman@illinois.ed

Any organization has a history not found in its archives or museums. Mysteries exist that origins are lost to the collective institutional knowledge. Despite what has been forgotten by humans, our servers and computers still keep running. Instructions crafted long ago execute like digital ghosts following orders of masters who have long since left.

The University of Illinois has a fair amount of Perl code created by several different developers. This code includes software that handles our data feeds coming both in and out of campus, reports against our Voyager system, some web applications, and more.

I'll touch a little on the historical legacy and why Perl is used. From there I'll share some tips, best practices, and some of the mistakes I've made in trying to maintain this code. Most of the advice will transition to any language, but code and libraries discussed will be Perl. The presentation will also touch on some internal debate on whether or not to port parts of our Perl codebase.

== Recorded Radio/TV broadcasts streamed for library users ==

* Kåre Fiedler Christiansen, The State and University Library Denmark, kfc@statsbiblioteket.dk
* Mads Villadsen, The State and University Library Denmark, mv@statsbiblioteket.dk

"Provide online access to the Radio/TV collection," my boss said. About 500,000
hours of Danish broacast radio and TV. Easy, right? Well, half a year later
we'd done it, but it turned out to involve practically every it employee in the
library and quite a few non-technical people as well.

Combining our Fedora-based DOMS repository system with our Lucene-based Summa
search system with our WAYF-based single-signon system with an upgrade of our
SAN system for enough speed to deliver the content with an ffmpeg-based
transcoding workflow system with a Wowza-based streaming server, and sprinkling
it all with a nice user-friendly web frontend turned out to be quite a challenge,
but also one of the most engaging experiences for a long time.

Of course we were immidiately shut down, since the legal details weren't quite
as clear as we thought they were, but take an exclusive preview at

== NoSQL Bibliographic Records: Implementing a Native FRBR Datastore with Redis ==
* Jeremy Nelson, Colorado College, jeremy.nelson@coloradocollege.edu

In October, the Library of Congress issued a news release, "A Bibliographic Framework for the Digital Age" outlining a list of requirements for a New Bibliographic Framework Environment. Responding to this challenge, this talk will demonstrate a Redis (http://redis.io) FRBR datastore proof-of-concept that, with a lightweight python-based interface, can meet these requirements.

Because FRBR is an Entity-Relationship model; it is easily implemented as key-value within the primitive data structures provided by Redis. Redis' flexibility makes it easy to associate arbitrary metadata and vocabularies, like MARC, METS, VRA or MODS, with FRBR entities and inter-operate with legacy and emerging standards and practices like RDA Vocabularies and LinkedData.

== Upgrading from Catalog to Discovery Environment: A Consortial Approach ==

* Spencer Lamm, Swarthmore College, slamm1@swarthmore.edu
* Chelsea Lobdell, Swarthmore College, clobdel1@swarthmore.edu

Almost two years ago the Tri-College Consortium of Haverford, Swarthmore, and Bryn Mawr Colleges embarked upon a journey to provide enhanced end-user experience and discoverability with our library applications. Our solution was to implement an integration of ExLibris's Primo Central into Villanova's VuFind for a dual-channel searching experience. We present a case study of the collaborative and technical aspects of our process.

At a high level we will describe our approach to project management and decision making. We used a multi-tiered structure of working groups with an iterative design-feedback implementation cycle. We will relay lessons learned from our experience: successes, failures, and unexpected hurdles.

At a lower, technical level we will discuss the vufind search module architecture; the workflow of creating a new search channel; a Primo API parser; and the data structures of the Primo API response and the Primo SearchObject. Time permitting, we will also outline how we modified VuFind's Innovative driver to work with our ILS.

== Improving geospatial data access for researchers and students ==

* Dileshni Jayasinghe, Scholars Portal, University of Toronto, d.jayasinghe@utoronto.ca
* Sepehr Mavedati, Scholars Portal, University of Toronto, sepehr.mavedati@utoronto.ca

Scholars GeoPortal (http://geo.scholarsportal.info) was created as a platform for online delivery of geospatial data resources to the Ontario Council of University Libraries community. Prior to the start of this project, each institution was storing data locally, and had its own practice for distributing datasets to users. This ranged from home grown online data delivery systems to burning data on to DVDs for each individual request. Most institutions had limited resources and expertise to create and maintain a sophisticated delivery system on their own. Led by OCUL Map, GIS librarians, staff at Scholars Portal in partnership with the Government of Ontario, the GeoPortal project began in 2009.

Our talk will focus on the design and architecture of Scholars Portal's solution to support maps and geospatial data, and how we distribute these data collections to our users.

The system consists of 4 main components: metadata management system, map server, spatial database, and the web application.

*Metadata Management: customized metadata editor with data hosted in MarkLogic, providing text and spatial queries
*Map Server: ArcGIS Server
*Spatial database: MS SQL Server with spatial extension
*Web application: Javascript web application using Dojo and Esri’s Javascript API

For other code4libbers who are interested in a similar system, we will also discuss the open source alternatives for each component (GeoNetwork, MapServer, etc.), and challenges and limitations we faced trying to use some of these tools. We'd also like to pick your brains on how we can make this application better. What can we do differently?

== LibX 2.0 ==

* Godmar Back, Virginia Tech, godmar@gmail.com

We would like to provide the Code4Lib community with an update on what we've accomplished with LibX (which we last presented in 2009) - where we've gone, what our users are thinking, and how both its technology and its adapter community can be included in the code4lib world. We've grown to our 200,00 users, have a sleek, newly designed user interface, support for Google Chrome. We're now directly consuming many web services. Our Libapp Builders allows anyone to place results, cue, tutorials and other library-related information into pages.

== Introducing the DuraSpace Incubator ==

* Jonathan Markow, DuraSpace, jjmarkow@duraspace.org

DuraSpace is planning to launch a new incubation program for the benefit of open source projects that wish to become part of our organization, in the interest of helping them to become sustainable, community-driven projects and supporting them afterwards with umbrella services that help them to thrive. From time to time DuraSpace becomes aware of open source software projects in the preservation, archiving, or repository space that are in search of a community “home”. The motivation might be that the project is simply trying to attract more developers, that it would like to develop a more robust community of users and service providers, that its current organizational sponsorship is in question, or that it would like to take advantage of an existing and compatible organization's best practices and administrative infrastructure rather than create a new one of its own. DuraSpace is now prepared to leverage its resources, experience, and reputation in the community to help these projects become, or continue to be, successful. Projects emerging from incubation will become officially recognized as DuraSpace projects. This briefing presents highlights of the DuraSpace Incubator and invites questions and feedback from participants.

== In-browser data storage and me ==

* Jason Casden, North Carolina State University Libraries, jason_casden@ncsu.edu

When it comes to storing data in web browsers on a semi-persistent basis, there are several partially-adopted, semi-deprecated, product-specific, or even universally accepted options. These include models such as key-value stores, relational databases, and object stores. I will present some of these options and discuss possible applications of these technologies in library services. In addition to quoting heavily from Mark Pilgrim's excellent chapter on this topic, I will weave in my own experience utilizing in-browser data storage in an iPad-based data collection tool to successfully improve performance and data stability while reducing network dependence. See also: HTML5.

== Coding for the past, archiving for the future … and the Salman Rushdie Papers ==

* Peter Hornsby, Emory University Libraries, phornsb@emory.edu

Cultural heritage production is moving to the digital medium and libraries use of repository solutions such as Fedora Commons and DSpace are a solid response to this change. But how do we go from, for instance a selection of 90's computing technology to a collection of digital objects ready for ingest into your institution's local repository? Once you have ingested your digital objects how are you going to provide access to these resources? The arrival of the Salman Rushdie Papers, which contain 10 years of Sir Salman Rushdie's digital life, gave Emory University Libraries the opportunity to explore these questions. I would like to to talk about the approach the Emory University Libraries adopted, what we learned and the coding challenges that remain.

== Indexing big data with Tika, Solr & map-reduce ==

* Scott Fisher, California Digital Library, scott.fisher AT ucop BORK edu
* Erik Hetzner, California Digital Library, erik.hetzner AT ucop BORK edu

The Web Archiving Service at the California Digital Library has
crawled a large amount of data, in every format found on the web: 30
TB, comprising about 600 million fetched URLs. In this talk we will
discuss how we parsed this data using Tika and map-reduce, and how we
indexed this data with Solr, tweaked the relevance ranking, and were
able to provide our users with a better search experience.

== ALL TEH METADATAS! or How we use RDF to keep all of the digital object metadata formats thrown at us. ==

* Declan Fleming, University of California, San Diego, dfleming AT ucsd DING edu

What's the right metadata standard to use for a digital repository? There isn't just one standard that fits documents, videos, newspapers, audio files, local data, etc. And there is no standard to rule them all. So what do you do? At UC San Diego Libraries, we went down a conceptual level and attempted to hold every piece of metadata and give each holding place some context, hopefully in a common namespace. RDF has proven to be the ideal solution, and allows us to work with MODS, PREMIS, MIX, and just about anything else we've tried. It also opens up the potential for data re-use and authority control as other metadata owners start thinking about and expressing their data in the same way. I'll talk about our workflow which takes metadata from a stew of various sources (CSV dumps, spreadsheet data of varying richness, MARC data, and MODS data), normalizes them into METS by our Metadata Specialists who create an assembly plan, and then ingests them into our digital asset management system. The result is a [http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6923768/Work/DAMS%20object%20rdf%20graph.png beautiful graph] of RDF triples with metadata poised to be expressed as [https://libraries.ucsd.edu/digital/ HTML], RSS, METS, XML, and opens linked data possibilities that we are just starting to explore.

== HathiTrust Large Scale Search: Scalability meets Usability ==

* Tom Burton-West, DLPS, University of Michigan Library, tburtonw AT umich edu

[http://www.hathitrust.org/ HathiTrust Large-Scale search] provides full-text search services over nearly 10 million full-text books using Solr for the back-end. Our index is around 5-6 TB in size and each shard contains over 3 billion unique terms due to content in over 400 languages and dirty OCR.

Searching the full-text of 10 million books often results in very large result sets. By conference time a number of [http://www.hathitrust.org/full-text-search-features-and-analysis features] designed to help users narrow down large result sets and to do exploratory searching will either be in production or in preparation for release. There are often trade-offs between implementing desirable user features and keeping response time reasonable in addition to the traditional search trade-offs of precision versus recall.

We will discuss various [http://www.hathitrust.org/blogs/large-scale-search scalability] and usability issues including:
* Trade-offs between desirable user features and keeping response time reasonable and scalable
* Our solution to providing the ability to search within the 10 million books and also search within each book
* Migrating the [http://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/mb personal collection builder application] from a separate Solr instance to an app which uses the same back-end as full-text search.
* Design of a scalable multilingual spelling suggester
* Providing advanced search features combining MARC metadata with OCR
** The dismax mm and tie parameters
** Weighting issues and tuning relevance ranking
* Displaying only the most "relevant" facets
* Tuning relevance ranking
* Dirty OCR issues
* CJK tokenizing and other multilingual issues.

== DMPTool: Guidance and resources to build a data management plan ==
Marisa Strong, California Digital Libary, marisa.strong@ucop.edu

A number of U.S. funding agencies such as the National Science Foundation require researchers to supply detailed plans for managing research data, called Data Management Plans. To help researchers with this requirement, the California Digital Library (CDL) along with several organizations, collaborated to develop the DMPTool. The goal is to provide researchers with guidance, links to resources and help with writing data management plans.
This open-source, Ruby on Rails software tool is hosted on a SLES VM by CDL. The tool is integrated with Shibboleth, federated single sign-on software, which allows users to login via their home institutions. We had a geographically distributed development team sharing their code on Bitbucket.
This talk will demo features of the application, the Shibboleth login architecture, as well as highlight the agile development practices and methods used to successfully design and build the application on an aggressive schedule.

== The Islandora Open Source Framework for Digital Asset Management ==

* Keith Folsom, Orbis Cascade Alliance, kfolsom@uoregon.edu

Managing digital content is a challenging task—becoming even more so
as the volumes and types of content increase at what seems an exponential
rate. Though there are good commercial management systems available,
having competing and potentially more configurable open source options is ideal.
One such option is Islandora—an open source framework that wraps a Drupal
front-end around the Fedora digital object management and storage system.

My talk will serve as an introduction to the Islandora framework—including a
discussion of Fedora’s digital object model and content model architecture;
how Islandora exposes the power of Fedora for storage, discovery, and retrieval
of data; and the wide variety of underlying open source software and technology
that enables the system. I will also give a quick tour of a stock Islandora
installation and provide tips on navigating the documentation for set-up and
use of this powerful framework.

== What do the NISO IOTA OpenURL quality reports tell us about the future of OpenURL linking? ==

* Adam Chandler, Cornell University, alc28@cornell.edu

NISO IOTA (http://openurlquality.niso.org/) is an initiative that makes use of log files from various institutions and vendors to analyze element frequency and patterns contained within OpenURL requests. The reports created from this analysis inform vendors about where to make improvements to their OpenURLs. In this talk, the chair of the IOTA working group will share what the group has learned about the differences in quality across OpenURL sources.

== "CALIL.JP" Open Libraries by web-scraping. - Introducing Library API from Japan ==

* Ryuuji Yoshimoto, Nota Inc. Engineer, ryuuji@notaland.com

I am an engineer at Nota Inc., a start-up company for web services. "CALIL" (http://calil.jp/) is a web service for library users in Japan. (Not only for librarians but also for general patrons.)

CALIL allows users search books from multiple libraries nearby, and get realtime holding status. Our service supports over 5,800 libraries.
CALIL supports public, university, and other many special libraries in Japan. The service can search 88% of collections of all public libraries in Japan.
Public libraries in Japan do not have an unified catalogue like OCLC.
Web OPACs in Japan are generally very slow and their usability is low.
We develop a comprehensive scraping service over 2000 web OPACs and it supports recognize real-time holding status on them as well.
This service can be used as for substitution of OPACs provided by libraries. It provides more useful, speedy and open service.

Our scraping platform also provides API for free.
Any developer can access realtime holding status at almost all the libraries in Japan by one API.
Since the launch in 2010, many apps on iPhone and Android are developed by many third party developers.
And it allows many web service connect to library (book shelf, review etc).

CALIL is written by 100% pure Python and running on Google App Engine.

I will introduce about "CALIL", "CALIL Library API", and its methodology. Open Libraries in Japan to World-Coders!!

== Discovering Digital Library User Behavior with Google Analytics==

* Kirk Hess, Digital Humanities Specialist, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, kirkhess@illinois.edu

Digital library administrators are frequently asked questions like "How many times was that document downloaded", or "What’s the most popular book in our collection?" Conventional web logging software, such as AWStats, can only answer those questions some of the time, and there’s always the question of whether or not the data is polluted by non-users, such as spiders and crawlers. Google Analytics, (http://google.com/analytics/ ) , a JavaScript-based solution that excludes most crawlers and bots, shows how users found your site and how they explored it.

The presentation will review tracking search queries, adding events such as clicking external links or downloading files, and custom variables, to track user behavior that is normally difficult to track. We'll also discuss using jQuery scripts to add tracking code to the page without having to modify the underlying web application. Once you've collected data, you may use the Google Analytics API to extract data and integrate it with data from your digital repository to show granular data about individual items in your Digital Library. Finally, we'll discuss how this information allows you to improve the user experience, and summarize some of the research we are doing with our digital repository and the data gathered from Google Analytics.

== Introducing Kuali OLE 0.3==

* Rich Slabach, Quality Assurance Manager, Kuali OLE, rlslabac at indiana dot edu
* Nianli Ma, Technical Architect, Kuali OLE, Indiana University, nianma at indiana dot edu

This research update will feature technical staff from the Kuali Open Library Environment (OLE) project, which is in its second year of building a community-source library management environment. Operating since July 2010, and supported by The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, Kuali OLE is the one of the largest academic library software collaborations in the United States. In this presentation we will discuss the Kuali OLE Year 2 Roadmap as well as key components of the system architecture, additionally we will demonstrate our Kuali OLE 0.3 release from November 2011 with our cloud-based test drive implementation and our well documented driver's manual. This will lead to a better understanding of how this code base could support library management at your home institution.

We will also discuss opportunities for engagement with Kuali OLE and for adoption and use of the software as well as hear more about our plans for long-term sustainability. For more on our current software see - https://wiki.kuali.org/display/OLE/OLE+and+Docstore+Server+Installation

== UDFR: Building a Registry using Open-Source Semantic Software ==

* Stephen Abrams, Associate Director, UC3, California Digital Library, stephen.abrams AT ucop DING edu
* Lisa Dawn Colvin, UDFR Project Manager, California Digital Library, lisa.colvin AT ucop DING edu

Fundamental to effective long-term preservation analysis, planning, and intervention is the deep understanding of the diverse digital formats used to represent content. The Unified Digital Format Registry project (UDFR, https://bitbucket.org/udfr/main/wiki/Home) will provide an open source platform for an online, semantically-enabled registry of significant format representation information.

We will give an introduction to the UDFR tool and its use within a preservation process.

We will also discuss our experiences of integrating disparate data sources and models into RDF: describing our iterative data modeling process and decisions around integrating vocabularies, data sources and provenance representation.

Finally, we will share how we extended an existing open-source semantic wiki tool, OntoWiki, to create the registry.

== Sirsi Symphony: Developing a "web service" to provide real time bibliographic information to Blacklight. ==

* John Pillans, Enterprise Software, Library Systems, Configuration Manager Kuali OLE, Indiana University, jpillan@indiana.edu

Indiana University Libraries is currently in the process of implementing Blacklight as its discovery layer on top of Sirsi Symphony. One aspect of Blacklight that must be developed locally is providing circulation status and holdings information to the user. We have developed a "web service" which provides the bibliographic data, formatted MARC holdings data (if present), and item data with current circulation information to the Blacklight system in XML.

== Open Sourcing the Dream: Making the Read/Write Library ==

* Margaret Heller, Read/Write Library Chicago and Dominican University, mheller@dom.edu

You met the Chicago Underground Library last year, now meet The Read/Write Library Chicago.It's a new name, a new space, and new opportunities to develop our catalog. We are working on creating the open source version of our ideas with a distributed team of interested volunteers, plus experimenting with innovative partnerships with the Chicago technology community. This talk will share what the team and open source project look like, what we are doing with our data, and how we finally learned to stop worrying and love Git.

== Interactive maps: an easy-to-maintain and scalable approach ==

* Mariela Gunn, Oakland University, gunn@oakland.edu

Developing interactive maps of a library building presents a unique challenge in an institution with limited web services personnel. Our technical expectations are high: we want the maps to have engaging interactivity, to be modular so we can link to different services represented in them, and to be scalable so that we can integrate data-driven elements. Our content needs are ever changing: we want to have distributed authorship of content through a user-friendly interface that can be used by all librarians without a steep learning curve.

This talk will focus on the design of interactive maps by a group of our undergraduate student interns who selected a web application -- Maps Alive -- for the task with ease of use and scalability in mind and set up a structure that can grow and change. The pros and cons of the application will be discussed, as well as tips on how to evaluate potential tools and make the best use of them through a modular and flexible approach to interactive maps. Involving students as designers and decision-makers in technology-related projects will be highlighted too.

== Getting the Content out of CONTENTdm: Building a Modular UI Template for Digital Collections ==

* Devin Becker, University of Idaho, dbecker@uidaho.edu

With the advent of iterations 6 and 6.1, CONTENTdm redesigned the basic user interfaces for individual collections, improving on what was already a robust and reliable system for archiving and displaying digital items. The majority of the items in these collections, however, still rarely see the light of a user's screen. Moreover, the typical modes for browsing these collections within the system are geared primarily to those who are already familiar with such systems or who have a specific need to see certain items.

To invite more casual browsing and easier discovery of our collections, the University of Idaho Library's Digital Initiatives department designed a scalable and modular interface for all of our collections with an increased emphasis on the time, location, and larger display of our images and other digital items. To do so, we used free and easy-to-use Javascript libraries and online applications (including Jquery, Google Fusion Tables, Simile Timeline, ImageFlow, and Tagcrowd.com), together with several, simple XSL stylesheets that utilize the metadata and persistent linking capabilities of the CONTENTdm database, to design a basic template with several browsing options (timeline, map, tag cloud, etc.) that can be used for any collection. This talk will detail the coding, methods, and metadata implemented for the redesign.

== saveMLAK: How Librarians, Curators, Archivists and Library Engineers Work Together with Semantic MediaWiki after the Great Earthquake of Japan ==

* Yuka Egusa, Senior Researcher of National Institute of Educational Policy Research, yuka_at_nier.go.jp
* Makoto Okamoto, Chief Editor of Academic Resource Guide (ARG), arg.editor_at_gmail.com

In March 11th 2011, the biggest earthquake and tsunami in the history attacked a large area of northern east region of Japan. A lot of people have worked together to save people in the area. For library community, a wiki named "savelibrary" was launched for sharing information on damages and rescues on the next day of the earthquake. Later then people from museum curators, archivists and community learning centers started similar projects. In April we joined to a project "saveMLAK", and launched a wiki site using Semantic MediaWiki under http://savemlak.jp/.

As of November 2011, information on over 13,000 cultural organizations are posted on the site by 269 contributors since the launch. The gathered information are organized along with Wiki categories of each type of facilities such library, museum, school, etc. We have held eight edit-a-thons to encourage people to contribute to the wiki.

We will report our activity, how the libraries and museums were damaged and have been recovered with lots of efforts, and how we can do a new style of collaboration with MLAK community, Wiki and other voluntary communities at the crisis.

== Kill the search button II - the handheld devices are coming ==

* Jørn Thøgersen, Statsbiblioteket/State and University Library, Aarhus, Denmark. jt@statsbiblioteket.dk
* Michael Poltorak Nielsen, Statsbiblioteket/State and University Library, Aarhus, Denmark. mn@statsbiblioteket.dk, (aka the Danes - some of them).

Web based library search engines are traditionally operated using keys, input fields, buttons, and links. Being equipped with touch screens, accelerometers, GPS's, and cameras, smartphones and tablets offer a whole new range of input options.

In this talk we'll demonstrate some of our ideas of how to
utilise these new input options interacting with a search engine. The basic idea is to have no traditional GUI input elements, but only use touch interactions (pinch, zoom, swipe, long-press, etc) and gestures (shake, tilt, turn, etc.). Using these interactions, we’ll demonstrate how to:

* do searches
* toggle search result views
* switch pages
* request materials, add to favourites
* interact with your stuff, renew items

We'll also show you some (conceptual) ideas about using the device camera for locating and checking out materials.

On a general level, what we are trying to achieve is a move away from a web based paradigm and establish new ways of interaction better suited to the new devices and on their own terms. The demonstration will feature working mobile prototypes including both native apps (iPhone) and web apps. In both cases they will run on live data from our OPAC on www.statsbiblioteket.dk/search/

This talk is actually also a continuation of our Code4Lib 2010 talk called "Kill The Search Button" (http://code4lib.org/conference/2010/schedule), which we unfortunately never got around to do, due to a Danish blizzard.

==Speaking in code: talking tech with humans (and librarians)==
* Erin White, Virginia Commonwealth University Libraries, erwhite@vcu.edu

We do awesome work, right? But what's the best way to communicate that work with non-geek stakeholders within our organizations? I'll present some ideas on how to communicate tech with those who don't always speak the language fluently. This'll include pitching new projects; communicating about existing projects; and dealing with project maintenance and problem-solving. I'll share some tips for explaining systems changes and problems, how to use help tickets as teachable moments for you or librarians, updating documentation, etc.

== Building a Code4Lib 2012 Conference Mobile App with the Kuali Mobility Framework ==

* Michelle Suranofsky, Lehigh University, michelle dot suranofsky at lehigh dot edu
* Tod Olson, University of Chicago, tod at uchicago dot edu

Hot off the heals of the Kuali Days 2011 Conference, we thought it would be fun to take the newly released Kuali Mobility for Enterprise framework for a test drive by creating a Code4Lib Conference Mobile App.

[http://kuali.org/mobility Kuali Mobility for Enterprise (KME)] is an open source framework for developing and deploying applications to connect mobile devices to an institution's information resources. Applications may be deployed as mobile websites or as installable apps. The KME framework makes heavy use of HTML5, CSS, and Javascript, and builds on other open source projects like PhoneGap and JQuery Mobile.

We will discuss the mechanics of the Kuali Mobility framework along with the experience using it to create a mobile app. for the Code4Lib conference.

== The ARCHIVEMATICA digital preservation system ==

* Peter Van Garderen, Archivematica Project Manager, [http://artefactual.com Artefactual Systems], peter at artefactual dot com
* Courtney Mumma, Archivematica Community Manager, courtney at artefactual dot com

The open source (AGPL3) [http://archivematica.org Archivematica] digital preservation system uses a micro-services architecture to integrate a suite of Linux utilities into workflow pipelines. It is designed as a backend tool for archivists and librarians managing digital collections and digital preservation responsibilities. We use Google Gearman for job scheduling and load balancing as well as Django (python) for a web-based administration interface that monitors and controls the processing of files in the pipelines. The system creates standards-compliant (e.g. METS, PREMIS, Bagit) archival packages as well as a registry interface to monitor format policies. This system is designed to provide the technical component for ISO 14721 (OAIS) and ISO 16363 (TRAC) compliant Trusthworthy Digital Repositories. The recent 0.8 release is the last alpha. Over winter 2012 we are continuing with scalability testing and tuning, adding ElasticSearch indexing, SWORD deposit support, interfaces for Dspace, ContentDM, XTF; all for inclusion in the 0.9-beta release sometime in Spring 2012. The presentation will give a quick demo of Archivematica's features as well as discuss technical architecture, APIs, development roadmap, user base, community building, project management, etc.

== Virtual Integrated Search - on-the-fly merging of relevancy ranked searches ==

* Mads Villadsen, The State and University Library Denmark, mv@statsbiblioteket.dk

What do you do when you have an integrated search system and the users want data at the article level? What we did was to try and get the data from the publishers - and when that failed we went with Summon for the article data while keeping our bibliographic records (and more) in our own system.

So how’s that working out for us?

We didn’t want to give up on our overall goal of having a single unified result set which meant we had to do something out of the ordinary.

We struck a deal with Serials Solutions that allowed us to apply our technical know-how and sprinkle fairy dust on our queries thereby achieving a proper relevancy ranked merging of results from our own index with the results from Summon. We gave a lightning talk about some of these ideas at last year's code4lib.

We have been running this "Virtual Integrated Search" in production since August and the end users haven't come at us with their pitch forks yet so we assume they are still able to find what they are looking for.

Just to be sure we will be performing a usability test in November 2011 that will hopefully guide our future development.

I will cover what goes into making fairy dust ("how it works", "what doesn't work") as well as some of the results from the usability test ("does it actually work?").

== Kuali Rice and preparing for OLE ==

* Tod Olson, University of Chicago, tod at uchicago dot edu
* Michelle Suranofsky, Lehigh University, michelle dot suranofsky at lehigh dot edu

Kuali Rice provides some of the fundamental underlying services for Kuali OLE and other Kuali software, services such as workflows, a service bus, integration with campus identity management, and more. In preparation for OLE, some partner libraries are developing their own simple Rice-base applications to provide some useful automation now while gaining experience that will prepare us for running Rice as part of OLE. This talk will give a brief overview of Kuali Rice and then discuss the construction of a real-but-simple Rice application.

== Argo and DOR Services: The developer and administrative interfaces to Stanford's Digital Object Registry ==

* Michael B. Klein, Library Infrastructure Engineer, Stanford University Libraries, mbklein at stanford dot edu

Argo is the administrative interface for Stanford's Digital Object Registry (DOR), the central repository of information about digital assets owned or managed by Stanford University Libraries and Academic Information Resources (SULAIR). Built on Blacklight, with help from other pieces of the Hydra repository framework, Argo provides a top-down, source-independent, application-agnostic view of items working their way through various stages of registration, submission, description, digitization, accessioning, publication, shelving, and preservation.

Argo's functionality is provided through three separate layers:

* A traditional web application, which provides UI-based bulk and individual item registration, management, and reporting functions
* A web service, which provides RESTful access to several of the same functions
* A DOR services Ruby gem which opens most of this functionality to other Ruby code, from Rails applications to accessioning daemons to one-off scripts

This presentation will explore Argo's full stack, from the underlying DOR Services gem (encapsulating a number of other disparate library infrastructure functions) to its use by SULAIR developers, contractors, digitization lab staff, project managers, and SULAIR technical staff.

== The Way to Bulid C4L Activities in Your Homeland - Based on the Experience of Code4Lib JAPAN. ==

* Makoto Okamoto, Chief Editor of Academic Resource Guide (ARG) and Executive Officer of Code4Lib JAPAN, arg.editor_at_gmail.com

In August 2010, We launched the "Code4Lib JAPAN", a kind of local activities of Code4Lib in JAPAN after preparation for 6 months. Since then, Code4Lib JAPAN did a great sucess and growth. Approximately, activities of Code4Lib JAPAN are divided into 4 parts like operation of orgnization and activities, offer training program, proposing some guidelines, dispatching a mission to Code4Lib Conference and selection of good practice.

In this presentation, some key facters of our sucess and growth will be explained by Executive Officer of Code4Lib JAPAN. Those key facters like getting money from outside grant, indutrial sponsers and personal supporters, operation of orgnization and activities on a self-supporting basis will be very helpful for those who are wishing to launch local activitiy in their homeland. We can offer variuus tiips to spread value and activities of Code4Lib in the world.

== The Golden Road (To Unlimited Devotion): Building a Socially Constructed Archive of Grateful Dead Artifacts ==

* Robin Chandler, University of California (Santa Cruz), chandler [at] ucsc [dot] edu
* Susan Chesley Perry, University of California (Santa Cruz), chesley [at] ucsc [dot] edu
* Kevin S. Clarke, University of California (Santa Cruz), ksclarke [at] ucsc [dot] edu

The Grateful Dead Archive at the University of California (Santa Cruz) is a collection of over 600 linear feet of material, including: business records, photographs, posters, fan envelopes, tickets, video, audio (oral histories, interviews and music) and 3-d objects such as stage props and band merchandise. In addition, with the release of the ''Grateful Dead Archive Online'' website in 2012, the Archive will start actively collecting artifacts from an enthusiastic community of Grateful Dead fans.

This talk will discuss the challenges of merging a traditional archive with a socially constructed one. We will also present the first round of development and explain how we're using tools like Omeka, ContentDM, UC3 Merritt, djatoka, Kaltura, Google Maps, and Solr to lay the foundation for a robust and engaging site. Future directions, like the integration/development of better curation tools and what we hope to learn from opening the archive to contributions from a large community of fans, will also be discussed.

== Library News - A gathering place for library and tech news, and more ==

* Matt Phillips, Harvard Library Innovation Lab, mphillips@law.harvard.edu

[http://news.librarycloud.org Library News] is gathering place for people to share and discuss news from the technology and library worlds. Think [http://news.ycombinator.com Hacker News], but for library dorks instead of startup dorks.

Library News is more than a news and discussion site, it analyzes submitted links and shares its observations. One example of this sharing is the exposure of popular blogs: Library News tracks submitted blog entries and tallies them up, creating a list of most popular blogs in the community. This most popular list is exposed as an HTML document and as an [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OPML OPML] download (The OPML file can be loaded directly into an RSS reader and be used as an always up-to-date "starter pack" of popular blogs in the library and tech spaces).

My rough talk outline:
* Demo Library News
* Present how Library News goes beyond normal discussion sites (the tools that allow to explore community submitted links)
* Discuss where Library News fits with the current library news ecosystem

Find more information about Library News at the [http://news.librarycloud.org/faq Library News FAQ]

== Data-Mining Repository Contents to Auto-populate Scholarly Research Repository Submission Metadata ==
* Mark Diggory, Head of U.S. Operations

The existing body of Open Access scholarly research is a well classified and described dataset. However, in Institutional Repositories it can be the case that there are insufficient resources to invest for cataloging and maintaining rich metadata descriptions of contributed content. This is especially the case when collections are populated and maintained by non-librarians. A great deal of classifiable detail preexists within files that are submitted to scholarly repositories. Utilizing existing Open Source technologies capable of extracting this information, a process can be provided to submitters and repository maintainers to suggest appropriate subject classifications and types for descriptive metadata during submission and update of repository items. This talk will provide an overview of an approach for utilizing machine learning as a tool for the auto population of subject classifications and content types.

== Mining Wikipedia for Book Articles ==
* Paul Deschner, Harvard Library Innovation Lab, deschner@law.harvard.edu

Suppose you were developing a browsing tool for library materials and wanted to include Wikipedia articles and categories whenever available -- how would you do it? There is no API or other data service which one can use to get a comprehensive listing of every page in Wikipedia devoted to the discussion of a book.

This talk will focus on the tools, workflows and data sources we have used to approach this problem. Tools and workflows include the use of Infobox ISBN's and other standard identifiers, analysis of Wikipedia categories and category hierarchies, exploitation of article abstracts and titles, and Mechanical Turk resources. Data sources include Dbpedia triple stores and Wikimedia XML/SQL dumps. So far, we have harvested around 60,000 book articles. This is an exploration in dealing with open, relatively unstructured Web content, and in aggregating answers to the same question using quite diverse techniques.

=== Developing applications using REST web services ===

Been hearing about web services but don’t know where to start to build something? Have you built applications that use read services but are stumped by OAuth, Content Negotiation and HTTP Headers? Come dig in and learn how to build applications that interact with both read and write REST services. We’ll cover the basic principles and practices of REST services and discuss the Atom Publishing Protocol as a REST service and its extensibility. The group will examine and test the CouchDB HTTP API by building a simple list creation tool. You’ll learn how OCLC’s platform web services leverage Atom to expose the data and business processes from OCLC’s library systems. By the end of the session, you’ll know the basic principles of REST services, be able to perform Create, Read, Update and Delete operations via REST and be able to authenticate to REST services via API keys and OAuth.

Come ready to learn and code!

=== [[2012 Linkfest Preconference|Linkfest]] ===

We've had talks and sessions galore about Linked Data at code4lib in past years. Let's focus on linking. Bring data you want to publish and link to or link from and your ideas about new ways we can push data linking into being part of our regular approach to how we put our libraries' content and services on the web. At the start of the session we'll run a quick poll to see who wants to link to what and how, and we'll pair or group up and get to work from there. May a kajillion links bloom!

If you need an "intro to linked data" we can prep a good list of readings/talks to review before you come. But please come ready to link!

=== Blacklight ===

This session will be walk-through of the architecture of Blacklight and what we have been improving since the rails 3 upgrade. In addition to the architecture of the software, we will also briefly discuss the architecture of the Blacklight community and what has made it successful so far.

For part of the session we will install Blacklight live and get it up and running. This install demo will include a How-To on basic customizations in Blacklight using a test-driven approach (one of the cornerstones of the Blacklight community).

For more information about Blacklight see our wiki ( http://projectblacklight.org/ ) and our GitHub repo ( https://github.com/projectblacklight/blacklight ). We will also send out some brief instructions beforehand for those that would like to setup their environments to follow along and get Blacklight up and running on their local machines.

=== [[Digging into metadata: context, code, and collaboration]] ===

Working with library/archival metadata is difficult. This preconference will tackle pressing questions and will show some of the intricacies of metadata (including AACR2/MARC) with exercises to demonstrate why inconsistencies exist in the data. What steps can the cataloging & metadata community take to help improve the quality of this data? What tools & techniques could help? Rules have evolved over time leaving dirty legacy data. Systems have impacted--and will continue to impact--data structure & design. How can this data be aggregated and refined for use in a new emerging data environments? What assumptions can safely be made and when do you need to inquire about local practice? We will end with a hack-fest where you can ask questions of experienced catalogers and get help with your metadata related problems. Bring your laptops and data.

This session will explore, we hope collaboratively, the presentation of objects on maps. There will be a section on workflow, a section on discovering objects via "geobrowse," a section discovery of objects via "geosearch," and an exploration of the discovery and presentation of geo-referenced images (e.g. historic maps). There will be open discussion on other approaches to map-based discovery. Emphasis will be placed on simplicity of workflow and implementation. Technologies include: Atom, Django, Solr, and OpenLayers.

2014 Prepared Talk Proposals

2016-05-27T19:45:14Z

Anarchivist: /* PhantomJS+Selenium: Easy Automated Testing of AJAX-y UIs */

'''Proposals for Prepared Talks:'''

Prepared talks are 20 minutes (including setup and questions), and should focus on one or more of the following areas:

* ''Projects'' you've worked on which incorporate innovative implementation of existing technologies and/or development of new software
* ''Tools and technologies'' – How to get the most out of existing tools, standards and protocols (and ideas on how to make them better)
* ''Technical issues'' - Big issues in library technology that should be addressed or better understood
* ''Relevant non-technical issues'' – Concerns of interest to the Code4Lib community which are not strictly technical in nature, e.g. collaboration, diversity, organizational challenges, etc.

'''To Propose a Talk'''
* Log in to the wiki in order to submit a proposal. If you are not already registered, follow the instructions to do so.
* Provide a title and brief (500 words or fewer) description of your proposed talk.
* If you so choose, you may also indicate when, if ever, you have presented at a prior Code4Lib conference. This information is completely optional, but it may assist us in opening the conference to new presenters.

As in past years, the Code4Lib community will vote on proposals that they would like to see included in the program. This year, however, only the top 10 proposals will be guaranteed a slot at the conference. Additional presentations will be selected by the Program Committee in an effort to ensure diversity in program content. Community votes will, of course, still weigh heavily in these decisions.

Presenters whose proposals are selected for inclusion in the program will be guaranteed an opportunity to register for the conference. The standard conference registration fee will still apply.

''Proposals can be submitted through '''Friday, November 8, 2013, at 5pm PST'''''. Voting will commence on November 18, 2013 and continue through December 6, 2013. The final line-up of presentations will be announced in early January, 2014.

'''Talk Proposals'''

==Creating a new Greek-Dutch dictionary==
* Caspar Treijtel, University of Amsterdam, c.treijtel@uva.nl

At present, no complete dictionary of (ancient) Greek-Dutch is available online. A new dictionary is currently under construction at Leiden University, with software being developed at the University of Amsterdam. The team in Leiden has already begun preparation of the data, with at this moment about 6,000 approved lemmas. The ultimate goal is to produce both a print version and online open access version from the same source documents. The software needed for this has been made in a project that was funded by CLARIN-NL.

Migrator

For the production of lemmas we have implemented an advanced workflow. The (generally non-technical) users create lemmas using MS Word, which is both familiar and easy to use. We have developed a custom software module that carefully migrates the Word documents into deeply structured XML by analyzing the structure and semantics of the lemmas, and falling back on heuristics in ambiguous cases. While having initially envisioned the oXygen XML Author component as the main tool for creating new lemmas, we obtained excellent results with the migrator module, and decided therefore to continue using MS Word as the primary composition tool. The main advantage of this is that the editors are much more familiar with Word than with any other WYSIWYG editor. Lemmas that have been migrated to XML are stored in an XML database and can be further edited using oXygen XML Author.

Lemmatizer

Greek morphology is complicated. In order to use a dictionary effectively, a rather high level of initial language competence is necessary for the user to be able to relate the word form s/he finds in a text to the correct basic lemma form, where the definition of the word can be found. Using a Greek morphological database we have been able to facilitate the search for lemmas. A ‘lemmatizer’ module gives the possible parsings of the word forms and the lemmas they can be derived from. This enables the user to type in the word as found in the text and be redirected to the correct lemma.

Visualization

For the online dictionary we have implemented a visualization module that allows the user to view multiple lemmas at once. The implementation of this module has been done using the Javascript framework MooTools. The result is a viewer that performs really well and is run by maintainable Javascript code.

The online dictionary is still being worked on, have a look at http://www.woordenboekgrieks.nl/ for the beta version. A newer test version with additional features can be found here: http://angel.ic.uva.nl:8600/.

== Using Drupal to drive alternative presentation systems ==

* [[User:Highermath|Cary Gordon]], The Cherry Hill Company, cgordon@chillco.com

Recently, we have been building systems that use angular.js, Rails, or other systems for presentation, while leveraging Drupal's sophisticated content management capabilities on the back end.

So far, these have been one-way systems, but as we move to Drupal 8 we are beginning to explore ways to further decouple the presentation and CMS functions.

== A Book, a Web Browser and a Tablet: How Bibliotheca Alexandrina's Book Viewer Framework Makes It Possible ==

* [[User:Mohammed.abuouda|Mohammed Abu ouda]], Bibliotheca Alexandrina (The new Library of Alexandria)

A lot of institutions around the world are engaged in multiple digitization projects aiming at preserving the human knowledge present in books and availing them through multiple channels to people around the whole globe. These efforts will sure help close the digital gap particularly with the arrival of affordable e-readers, mobile phones and network coverage. However, the digital reading experience has not yet arrived to its maximum potential. Many readers miss features they like in their good old books and wish to find them in their digital counterpart. In an attempt to create a unique digital reading experience, Bibliotheca Alexandria (BA) created a flexible book viewing framework that is currently used to access its current collection of more than 300,000 digital books in five different languages which includes the largest collection of digitized Arabic books.

Using open source tools, BA used the framework to develop a modular book viewer that can be deployed in different environments and is currently at the heart of various BA projects. The Book viewer provides several features creating a more natural reading experience. As with physical books, the reader can now personalize the books he reads by adding annotations like highlights, underlines and sticky notes to capture his thoughts and ideas in addition to being able to share the book with friends on social networks. The reader can perform a search across the content of the book receiving highlighted search results within the pages of the book. More features can be further added to the book viewer through its plugin architecture.

== Structured data NOW: seeding schema.org in library systems ==

* [http://coffeecode.net Dan Scott], Laurentian University
** Previous code4lib presentations: [https://archive.org/details/code4lib.conf.2008.pres.CouchDBsacrilege CouchDB is sacrilege... mmm, delicious sacrilege] at Code4Lib 2008

The semantic web, linked data, and structured data are all fantastic ideas with a barrier imposed by implementation constraints. If their system does not allow customizations, or the institution lacks skilled human resources, it does not matter how enthused a given library might be about publishing structured data... it will not happen. However, if the software in use simply publishes structured data by default, then the web will be populated for free. Really! No extra resources necessary.

This presentation highlights Dan's work with systems such as Evergreen, Koha, and VuFind to enable the publication of schema.org structured data out-of-the-box. Along the way, we reflect the current state of the W3C Schema.org Bibliographic Extension community group efforts to shape the evolution of the schema.org vocabulary. Finally, hold on tight as we contemplate next steps and the possibilities of a world where structured data is the norm on the web.

== Towards Pasta Code Nirvana: Using JavaScript MVC to Fill Your Programming Ravioli ==

* Bret Davidson, North Carolina State University Libraries, bret_davidson@ncsu.edu
** Previous Code4Lib Presentations: [http://wiki.code4lib.org/index.php/2013_talks_proposals#Data-Driven_Documents:_Visualizing_library_data_with_D3.js Visualizing library data with D3.js] at Code4Lib 2013

JavaScript MVC frameworks are ushering in a golden age of robust and responsive web applications that take advantage of evergreen browsers, performant JS engines, and the unprecedented reach provided by billions of personal computing devices. The web browser has emerged as the world’s most popular application runtime and the complexity[1] and scope of JavaScript applications has exploded accordingly. Server-side web frameworks like Rails and Django have helped developers adhere to best practices like modularity, dependency injection, and unit testing for years, practices that are now being applied to JavaScript development through projects like Backbone[2], Ember[3], and Angular[4].

This talk will discuss the issues JavaScript MVC frameworks are trying to solve, common features like data binding, implications for the future of web development[5], and the appropriateness of JavaScript MVC for library applications.

== WebSockets for Real-Time and Interactive Interfaces ==

* [http://ronallo.com Jason Ronallo], NCSU Libraries, jason_ronallo@ncsu.edu

Watching the Google Analytics Real-Time dashboard for the first time was mesmerizing. As soon as someone visited a site, I could see what page they were on. For a digital collections site with a lot of images, it was fun to see what visitors were looking at. But getting from Google Analytics to the image or other content of what was currently being viewed was cumbersome. The real-time experience was something I wanted to share with others. I'll show you how I used a WebSocket service to create a real-time interface to digital collections views and search queries.

In the Hunt Library at NCSU we have some large video walls. I wanted to make HTML-based exhibits that featured viewer interactions. I'll show you how I converted Listen to Wikipedia [1] into an bring-your-own-device interactive exhibit. With WebSockets any HTML page can be remote controlled by any internet connected device.

I will attempt to include real-time audience participation.

== Rapid Development of Automated Tasks with the File Analyzer ==

* Terry Brady, Georgetown University Libraries, twb27@georgetown.edu

The Georgetown University Libraries have customized the File Analyzer and Metadata Harvester application (https://github.com/Georgetown-University-Libraries/File-Analyzer) to solve a number of library automation challenges:
* validating digitized and reformatted files
* validating vendor statistics for counter compliance
* preparing collections of digital files for archiving and ingest
* manipulating ILS import and export files

The File Analyzer application was used by the US National Archives to validate 3.5 million digitized images from the 1940 Census. After implementing a customized ingest workflow within the File Analyzer, the Georgetown University Libraries was able to process an ingest backlog of over a thousand files of digital resources into DigitalGeorgetown, the Libraries’ Digital Collections and Institutional Repository platform. Georgetown is currently developing customized workflows that integrate Apache Tika, BagIt, and Marc conversion utilities.

The File Analyzer is a desktop application with a powerful framework for implementing customized file validation and transformation rules. As new rules are deployed, they are presented to users within a user interface that is easy (and powerful) to use.

Learn about the functionality that is available for download, how you can use this tool to automate workflows from digital collections to ILS ingests to electronic resources statistics and also discuss the opportunities to collaborate on enhancements to this application!

== GeoHydra: How to Build a Geospatial Digital Library with Fedora ==

* [http://stanford.edu/~drh Darren Hardy], Stanford University, drh@stanford.edu

Geographically-rich data are exploding and putting fear in those trying to
tackle integrating them into existing digital library infrastructures.
Building a spatial data infrastructure that integrates with your digital
library infrastructure need not be a daunting task. We have successfully
deployed a geospatial digital library infrastructure using Fedora and
open-source geospatial software [1]. We'll discuss the primary design
decisions and technologies that led to a production deployment within a few
months. Briefly, our architecture revolves around discovery, delivery, and
metadata pipelines using open-source OpenGeoPortal [2], Solr [3], GeoServer
[4], PostGIS [5], and GeoNetwork [6] technologies, plus the proprietary ESRI
ArcMap [7] -- the GIS industry's workhorse. Finally, we'll discuss the key
skillsets needed to build and maintain a spatial data infrastructure.

==Under the Hood of Hadoop Processing at OCLC Research ==

[http://roytennant.com/ Roy Tennant]

* Previous Code4Lib presentations: 2006: "The Case for Code4Lib 501c(3)"

[http://hadoop.apache.org/ Apache Hadoop] is widely used by Yahoo!, Google, and many others to process massive amounts of data quickly. OCLC Research uses a 40-node compute cluster with Hadoop and HBase to process the 300 million MARC records of WorldCat in various ways. This presentation will explain how Hadoop MapReduce works and illustrate it with specific examples and code. The role of the jobtracker in both monitoring and reporting on processes will be explained. String searching WorldCat will also be demonstrated live.

== Quick and Easy Data Visualization with Google Visualization API and Google Chart Libraries ==

[http://bohyunkim.net/blog Bohyun Kim], Florida International University, bohyun.kim@fiu.edu
* 'No' previous Code4Lib presentations

Do most of the data that your library collects stay in spreadsheets or are published as a static table with a series of boring numbers? Do your library stakeholders spend more time collecting the data than using it as a decision-making tool because the data is presented in a way that makes it hard for them [http://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery to quickly grasp its significance? ]

This talk will provide an overview of [http://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/reference Google Visualization API] [2] and [http://developers.google.com/chart/ Google Chart Libraries] [3] to get you started on the way to quickly query and visualize your library data from remote data sources (e.g. a Google Spreadsheet or your own database) with (or without) cool-looking user-controls, animation effects, and even a dashboard.

== Leap Motion + Rare Books: A hands-free way to view and interact with rare books in 3D ==

[http://http://www.youtube.com/user/jpdenzer Juan Denzer], Binghamton University, jdenzer@binghamton.edu
* 'No' previous Code4Lib presentations

As rare books become more delicate over time, making them available to the public becomes harder. We at Binghamton University Library have developed an application that makes it easier to view rare books without ever having to touch them. We have combined the Leap Motion hands-free device and 3D rendered models to create a new virtual experience for the viewer.

The application allows the user to rotate and zoom in on a 3D representation of a rare book. The user is also able to ‘open’ the virtual book and flip through it using a natural user interface. Such as swiping the hand left or right to turn the page.

The application is built on the .Net framework and is written in C#. 3D models are created using simple 3D software such as sketchup or Blender. Scans of the book cover and spine are created using simple flatbed scanners. The inside pages are scanned using overhead scanners.

This talk with discuss the technologies used in developing the application and virtually any library could implement the application with virtually no coding at all. This presentation will have a demonstration of the software and also a chance for audience members to experience the Rare Book Leap Motion App themselves.

== Course Reserves Unleashed! ==

* Bobbi Fox, Library Technology Services, Harvard University, bobbi_fox@harvard.edu
* Gloria Korsman, Andover-Harvard Theological Library
** No previous Code4Lib presentations

Hey kids! Remember when SOAP was used for something other than washing? Our sophisticated (and highly functional) Course Reserves Request system does!

However, while the system is great for submitting and processing course reserve requests, the student-facing presentation through Havard’s home-grown -- and soon to be replaced -- LMS leaves a lot to be desired.

Follow along as we leverage Solr 4 as a No-SQL database, along with more progressive RESTful API techniques, to release Reserves data into the wild without interfering with reserves request processing -- and, in the process, open up the opportunity for other schools to feed their data in as well.

== We Are All Disabled! Universal Web Design Making Web Services Accessible for Everyone ==

Cynthia Ng, Accessibility Librarian, CILS at Langara College
* No previous Code4Lib presentations (not counting lightning talks)

We’re building and improving tools and services all the time, but do you only develop for the “average” user or add things for “disabled” users? We all use “assistive” technology accessing information in a multitude of ways with different platforms, devices, etc. Let’s focus on providing web services that are accessible to everyone without it being onerous or ugly. The aim is to get you thinking about what you can do to make web-based services and content more accessible for all from the beginning or with small amounts of effort whether you're a developer or not.

The goal of the presentation is to provide both developers and content creators with information on simple, practical ways to make web content and web services more accessible. However, rather than thinking about putting in extra effort or making adjustment for those with disabilities, I want to help people think about how to make their websites more accessible for all users through universal web design.

== Personalize your Google Analytics Data with Custom Events and Variables ==

[http://joshwilson.net Josh Wilson], Systems Integration Librarian, State Library of North Carolina - joshwilsonnc@gmail.com

At the State Library of North Carolina, we had more specific questions about the use of our digital collections than standard GA could provide. A few implementations of custom events and custom variables later, we have our answers.

I'll demonstrate how these analytics add-ons work, and why implementation can sometimes be more complicated than just adding a few lines of JavaScript to your ga.js. I'll discuss some specific examples in use at the SLNC:

* Capturing the content of specific metadata fields in CONTENTdm as Custom Events
* Recording Drupal taxonomy terms as Custom Variables

In both instances, this data deepened our understanding of how our sites and collections were being used, and in turn, we were able to report usage more accurately to content contributors and other stakeholders.

== Behold Fedora 4: The Incredible Shrinking Repository! ==

Esmé Cowles, UC San Diego Library. Previous talk: [http://code4lib.org/conference/2013/cowles-critchlow-westbrook All Teh Metadatas Re-Revisited] (2013)

* One repository contains untold numbers of digital objects and powers many Hydra and Islandora apps
* It speaks RDF, but contains no triplestore! (triplestores sold separately, SPARQL Update may be involved, some restrictions apply)
* Flexible enough to tie itself in knots implementing storage and access control policies
* Witness feats of strength and scalability, with dramatically increased performance and clustering
* Plumb the depths of bottomless hierarchies, and marvel at the metadata woven into the very fabric of the repository
* Ponder the paradox of ingesting large files by not ingesting them
* Be amazed as Fedora 4 swallows other systems whole (including Fedora 3 repositories)
* Watch novice developers setup Fedora 4 from scratch, with just a handful of incantations to Git and Maven

The Fedora Commons Repository is the foundation of many digital collections, e-research, digital library, archives, digital preservation, institutional repository and open access publishing systems. This talk will focus on how Fedora 4 improves core repository functionality, adds new features, maintains backwards compatibility, and addresses the shortcomings of Fedora 3.

== Organic Free-Range API Development - Making Web Services That You Will Actually Want to Consume ==

Steve Meyer and Karen Coombs, OCLC

Building web services can have great benefits by providing reusability of data and functionality. Underpinning your applications with a web service will allow you to write code once and support multiple environments: your library's web app, mobile applications, the embedded widget in your campus portal. However, building a web service is its own kind of artful programming. Doing it well requires attention to many of the same techniques and requirements as building web applications, though with different outcomes.

So what are the usability principles for web services? How do you build a web service that you (and others) will actually want to use? In this talk, we’ll share some of the lessons learned - the good, the bad, and the ugly - through OCLC's work on the WorldCat Metadata API. This web service is a sophisticated API that provides external clients with read and write access to WorldCat data. It provides a model to help aspiring API creators navigate the potential complications of crafting a web service. We'll cover:

* Loose coupling of data assets and resource-oriented data modeling at the core
* Coding to standards vs. exposure of an internal data model
* Authentication and security for web services: API Keys, Digital Signing, OAuth Flows
* Building web services that behave as a suite so it looks like the left hand knows what the right hand is doing

So at the end of the day, your team will know your API is a very good egg after all.

If accepted, the presenters intend to produce and share a Quick Guide for building a web service that will reflect content presented in the talk.

== Lucene's Latest (for Libraries) ==

erik.hatcher@lucidworks.com

Lucene powers the search capabilities of practically all library discovery platforms, by way of Solr, etc. The Lucene project evolves rapidly, and it's a full-time job to keep up with the ever improving features and scalability. This talk will distill and showcase the most relevant(!) advancements to date.

== The Why and How of Very Large Displays in Libraries. ==

Built into the walls of NC State's new Hunt Library are several [http://www.christiedigital.com/en-us/digital-signage/products/microtiles/pages/microtiles-digital-signage-video-wall.aspx Christie MicroTile Display Wall Systems]. What does a library do with a display that's seven feet tall and over twenty feet wide? I'll talk about why libraries might want large displays like this, what we're doing with them right now, and what we might do with them in the future. I'll talk about how these displays factor into planning for new and existing web projects. And I'll get into the fun details of how you build web applications that scale from the very small browser window on a phone all the way up to a browser window with about 14 million pixels (about 10 million more than a dual 24" monitor desktop setup).

== Discovering your Discovery System in Real Time. ==

* Godmar Back, Virginia Tech, gback@vt.edu
* Annette Bailey, Virginia Tech, afbailey@vt.edu

Practically all libraries today provide web-based discovery systems to their users;
users discover items and peruse or check them out by clicking on links. Unlike
the traditional transaction of checking out a book at the circulation desk, this
interaction is largely invisible. We have built a system that records user's
interaction with Summon in real-time, processes the resulting data with minimal delay,
and visualizes it in various ways using Google Charts and using various d3.js modules,
such as word clouds, tree maps, and others.

These visualizations can be embedded in web sites, but are also suitable for
projection via large-scale displays or projectors right into the 'Learning Spaces'
many libraries are converted into. The goal of this talk is to share the technology
and advocate the building of a cloud-based infrastructure that would make this
technology available to any library that uses a discovery system, rather than just
those who have the technological prowess for developing such systems and
visualizations in-house.

== Your Library, Anywhere: A Modern, Responsive Library Catalogue at University of Toronto Libraries ==

* Bilal Khalid, Gordon Belray, Lisa Gayhart (lisa.gayhart@utoronto.ca)

* No previous Code4Lib presentations

With the recent surge in the mobile device market and an ever expanding patron base with increasingly divergent levels of technical ability, the University of Toronto Libraries embarked on the development of a new catalogue discovery layer to fit the needs of its diverse users.

[http://search.library.utoronto.ca The result]: a mobile-friendly, flexible and intuitive web application that brings the full power of a faceted library catalogue to users without compromising quality or performance, employing Responsive Web Design principles. This talk will discuss: application development; service improvements; interface design; and user outreach, testing, and project communications. Feedback and questions from the audience are very welcome. If time runs short, we will be available for questions and conversation after the presentation.

Note: A version of this content has been provisionally accepted as an article for Code4Lib Journal, January 2014 publication.)

== All Tiled Up ==

* Mike Graves, MIT Libraries (mgraves@mit.edu)

You've got maps. You even scanned and georeferenced them. Now what? Running a full GIS stack can be expensive, and overkill in some cases. The good news is that you have a lot more options now than you did just a few years ago. I'd like to present some lighter weight solutions to making georeferenced images available on the Web.

This talk will provide an introduction to MBTiles. I'll go over what they are, how you create them, how you use them and why you would use them.

== The Great War: Image Interoperability to Facebook ==

* Rob Warren, Carleton University
** No previous presentations

Using a pipeline constructed from Linked Open Data and other interoperability specifications, it is possible to merge and re-use image and textual data from distributed library collections to build new, useful tools and applications. Starting with the OAI-PMH interface to ContentDM, we will take you on a tour through the International Image Interoperability Framework and Shared Canvas, to a cross-institutional viewer, and image analysis for the purposes of building a historical Facebook from finding and tagging people in photographs. The World War One collections are drawn from multiple institutions and merged by the machine learning code.

The presentation will focus on the (open source) toolchain and the benefits of the use of standards throughout: OAI-PMH to get the metadata, IIIF for interaction with the images, the Shared Canvas ontology for describing collections of digitized objects, Open Annotation for tagging things in the images and specialized ontologies that are specific to the contents. The tools include standard RDF / OWL technologies, JSON-LD, imagemagick and OpenCV for image analysis.

== Visualizing Solr Search Results with D3.js for User-Friendly Navigation of Large Results Sets ==

*Julia Bauder, Grinnell College Libraries (bauderj-at-grinnell-dot-edu)
*No previous presentations at national Code4Lib conferences

As the corpus of articles, books, and other resources searched by discovery systems continues to get bigger, searchers are more and more frequently confronted with unmanageably large numbers of results. How can we help users make sense of 10,000 hits and find the ones they actually want? Facets help, but making sense of a gigantic sidebar of facets is not an easy task for users, either.
During this talk, I will explain how we will soon be using Solr 4’s pivot queries and hierarchical visualizations (e.g., treemaps) from D3.js to let patrons view and manipulate search results. We will be doing this with our VuFind 2.0 catalog, but this technique will work with any system running Solr 4. I will also talk about early student reaction to our tests of these visualization features.

== PeerLibrary – open source cloud based collaborative library ==

* [http://mitar.tnode.com/ Mitar Milutinovic], UC Berkeley, mitar.code4lib at tnode.com
* Not presented or attended code4lib before

[https://github.com/peerlibrary/peerlibrary PeerLibrary is a new open source project] and a cloud service providing collaborative reading, sharing and storing. Users can upload publications they want to read (currently in PDF format), read them in the browser in real-time with others, highlight, annotate and organize their own or collaborative library. PeerLibrary provides a search engine to search over all uploaded open access publications. Additionally, it aims to collaboratively aggregate the open layer of knowledge on top of this publications through public annotations and references user will add to publications. In this way publications would not just be available to read, but accessible to the general public as well. Currently, it is aiming at scientific community and scientific publications.

== Who was where when, or finding biographical articles on Wikipedia by place and time ==

* [http://morton-owens.info Emily Morton-Owens], The Seattle Public Library (presenting on work from NYU)
* No previous c4l presentations

It's easy to answer the question "What important people were in Paris in 1939?" But what about Virginia in the 1750s or Scandinavia in the 14th century? I created a tool that allows you to search for biographies in a generally applicable way, using a map interface. I would like to present updates to my thesis project, which combines a crawler written in Java that extracts information from Wikipedia articles, with a MongoDB data store and a frontend in Python.

The input to the project is freetext of entire articles in Wikipedia; this is important to allow us to pick up Benjamin Franklin not just in the single most obvious place of Philadelphia but also in London, Paris, Boston, etc. I can talk about my experiments disambiguating place names (approaches pioneered on newspaper articles were actually unhelpful on this type of text) and setting up a processing queue that does not become mired in the biographies of every human who ever played soccer. I also want to mitigate some of the implementation choices I made due to my academic deadline and improve the accuracy/usability.

What I hope to show is that I was able to develop a novel and useful reference tool automatically, using fairly simple heuristics that are a far cry from hand-cataloging familiar to many librarians.

== Good!, DRY, and Dynamic: Content Strategy for Libraries (Especially the Big Ones) ==

*Michael Schofield, Nova Southeastern University Libraries, mschofield@nova.edu
*No previous code4lib presentations.

The responsibilities of the #libweb are exploding [it’s a good thing] and it is no longer uncommon for libraries to manage or even home-grow multiple applications and sites. Often it is at this point where the web people begin to suffer the absence of a content strategy when, say, business hours need to be updated sitewide a half-dozen times.

We were already feeling this crunch when we decided to further complicate the Nova Southeastern University Libraries by splitting the main library website into two. The Alvin Sherman Library, Research, and Information Technology Center is a unique joint-use facility that serves not only the academic community but the public of Broward County - and marketing a hyperblend of content through one portal just wasn't cutting it. With a web team of two, we knew that managing all this rehashed, disparate content was totally unsustainable.

I want to share in this talk how I went about making our library content DRY (“don’t repeat yourself”): input content in one place--blurbs, policies, featured events, featured databases, book reviews, business hours, and so on.--and syndicate it everywhere - even, sometimes, dynamically target that content for specific audiences or context. It is a presentation that is a little about workflow, a little more about browser and context detection, a tangent about content-modeling the CMS, and a lot about APIs, syndication, and performance.

== No code, no root, no problem? Adventures in SaaS and library discovery ==

*[mailto:erwhite@vcu.edu Erin White, VCU]
*No previous C4L presentations

In 2012 VCU was an eager early adopter of Ex Libris' cloud service Alma as an ILS, ERM, link resolver, and single-stop, de-silo'd public-facing discovery tool. This has been a disruptive change that has shifted our systems staff's day-to-day work, relationships with others in the library, and relationships with vendors.

I'll share some of our experiences and takeaways from implementing and maintaining a cloud service:
* Seeking disruption and finding it
* Changing expectations of service and the reality of unplanned downtime
* Communication and problem resolution with non-IT library staff
* Working with a vendor that uses agile development methodology
* Benefits and pitfalls of creating customizations and code workarounds
* Changes in library IT/coders' roles with SaaS

...as well as thoughts on the philosophy of library discovery vs real-life experiences in moving to a single-search model.

[http://www.avalonmediasystem.org/ Avalon Media System] is a collaborative effort between development teams at Northwestern and Indiana Universities. Our goal is to produce an open source media management platform that works well for us, but is also widely adopted and contributed to by other institutions. We believe that building a strong user and contributor community is vital to the success and longevity of the project, and have developed the system with this goal in mind. We will share lessons learned, pains and successes we’ve had releasing two versions of the application since last year.

Our presentation will cover our experiences:
* providing flexible, admin-friendly distribution and installation options
* building with abstraction, customization and local integrations in mind
* prioritizing features (user stories)
* attracting code contributions from other institutions
* gathering community feedback
* creating a product rather than a bag of parts

== How to check your data to provide a great data product? Data quality as a key product feature at Europeana ==

*[mailto:Peter.Kiraly@kb.nl Péter Király] portal backend developer, Europeana
*No previous C4L presentations

[http://Europeana.eu/ Europeana.eu] - Europe's digital library, archive and museum - aggregates more than 30 million metadata records from more than 2200 institutions. The records come from libraries, archives, museums and every other kind of cultural institution, from very different systems and metadata schemas, and are typically transformed several times until they are ingested into the Europeana data repository. Europeana builds a consolidated database from these records, creating reliable and consistent services for end-users (a search portal, search widget, mobile apps, thematic sites etc.) and an API, which supports our strategic goeal of data for reuse in education, creative industries, and the cultural sector. A reliable "data product" is thus at the core of our own software products, as well as those of our API partners.

Much effort is needed to smooth out local differences in the metadata curation practice of our data providers. We need a solid framework to measure the consistency of our data and provide feedback to decision-makers inside and outside the organisation. We can also use this metrics framework to ask content providers to improve their own metadata. Of course, a data-quality-driven approach requires that we also improve the data transformation steps of the Europeana ingestion process itself. Data quality issues heavily define what new features we are able to create in our user interfaces and API, and might actually affect the design and implementation of our underlying data structure, the Europeana Data Model.

In the presentation I briefly describe the Europeana metadata ingestion process, show the data quality metrics, the measuring techniques (using the Europeana API, Solr and MongoDB queries), some typical problems (both trivial and difficult ones), and finally the feedback mechanism we propose to deploy.

== Teach your Fedora to Fly: scaling out a digital repository ==

*[mailto:acoburn@amherst.edu Aaron Coburn], Software Developer, Amherst College
*No previous C4L presentations

Fedora is a great repository system for managing large collections of digital objects, but what happens when a popular food magazine begins directing a large number of readers to a manuscript showing Emily Dickinson’s own recipe for doughnuts? While Fedora excels in its support of XML-based metadata, it doesn’t always perform well under a high volume of traffic. Nor is it especially tolerant of network or hardware failures.

This presentation will show how we are making heavy use of a fedora repository while at the same time insulating it almost entirely from any web traffic. Starting with a distributed web front-end built with Node.js, and caching most of the user-accessible content from Fedora in an elastic, fault-tolerant Riak (NoSQL) cluster, we have eliminated nearly all single points of failure in the system. It also means that our production system is spread across twelve separate servers, where asynchrony and Map-Reduce are king. And aside from being blazing fast, it is also entirely Hydra-compliant.

Furthermore, we will attempt to answer the question: if fedora crashes and the visitors to your site don’t notice, did it really fail?

== Using Open Source Software and Freeware to Preserve and Deliver Digital Videos ==
* [mailto:wfang@kinoy.rutgers.edu Wei Fang], Head of Digital Services, Rutgers University Law Library
* Jiebei Luo, Digital Projects Initiative Intern, Rutgers University
*No previous C4L presentations

The Rutgers University Law Library is the official digital repository of the New Jersey Supreme Court oral arguments since 2002. This large video collection contains approximately 3,000 videos with a total of 400 GB or 6,000 viewing hours. With the expansion of this collection, the existing database and the static website could not efficiently support the library’s daily operations and meet its patrons’ search needs.
By utilizing open source software and freeware such as Ubuntu, FFmpeg, Solr and Drupal, the library is able to develop a complete solution to re-encoding videos, embedding subtitles, incorporating Solr search engine and content management system to support full-text subtitle search, automatically updating video metadata records in the library catalog system and eventually providing a plug-in free HTML 5-based Web interface for patrons to view the videos online.
The aspects below will be presented in detail at the conference:
* Video codecs comparison
* Server-end batch video encoding/re-encoding
* HTML 5 video tag and embedding subtitles
* Incorporating search engine Solr and content management tool Drupal with the database to retrieve videos by full-text search especially in subtitle files
* Incorporating video metadata with the library catalog system

Curate is being collaboratively developed by several institutions in the Hydra community who share the need and vision for a Fedora-backed Institutional Repository. The first release of Curate was a collaboration between Notre Dame and Northwestern University, along with Digital Curation Experts (DCE) - a vendor hired jointly by our two institutions. Powered by the Hydra engine Sufia, the team worked quickly to release the first version of Curate in October 2013 which provides a basic self-deposit system that has support for various content types, collection building, DOI minting, and user profile creation. From the very beginning we have built Curate to be easy to theme and extend in order to ease the process of installation and use by other institutions.

In December 2013, additional partners will join the project including: Indiana University, the University of Cincinnati and the University of Virginia. Each institution contributes resources to the project in order to further our common goal to create a product that fits our needs and has a sustainable future.Together we will tackle additional content types (like complex data, software, media), administrative collections and more.

Our presentation will include:
* a brief demonstration of Curate and technical overview
* why and how we work together
* why build Curate
* the future of the project

== Solr, Cloud and Blacklight ==

SolrCloud refers to the distributed capabilities in Solr4. It is designed to offer a highly available, fault tolerant environment by organizing data into multiple pieces that can be hosted on multiple machines with replicas, and providing a centralized cluster configuration and management.

At Indiana University, we are upgrading our Solr backend for our recently released Blacklight-based OPAC system from Solr 1.4 to Solr4, and we also put up efforts to build a private cloud of Solr4 servers. In this talk, I will persent certain features of SolrCloud, including distributed requests, fault tolerance, near real time indexing/searching, and configuration management with Zookeeper, and our experiences of utilizing these features to provide better performance and architecture for our OPAC system, which serves over 7 million bibliographic records to over 100 thousand students and faculty members. I will also discuss some practical lessons learned from our SolrCloud setup/upgrade and the integration of the new SolrCloud to our customized Blacklight system.

== Leveraging XSD's for Reflective, Live Dataset Support in Institutional Repositories ==
* [mailto:msulliva@ufl.edu Mark Sullivan], Library Information Technology, University of Florida
** No previous code4lib presentations

The University of Florida Libraries are currently adding support for active datasets into our METS-based institutional repository software. This ongoing project enables the library to be a partner in current, or long-running, data-driven projects around the university by providing tangible short-term and long-term benefits to the projects. The system assists project teams by storing and providing access to their data, while supporting online filtering and sorting of the data, custom queries, and adding and editing of the data by authorized users. We are also exploring simple data visualizations to allow users to perform basic graphical and geographic queries. Several different schemas were explored including DDI and EML, but ultimately the streamlined approach of using XSD's with some custom attributes was chosen, with all other data residing in the METS file portions. Currently the system is being developed using XSD's describing XML datasets, but this model should easily scale to support SQL datasets or large datasets supported by Hadoop or iRODS.

This work is being integrated in the open source [http://sobek.ufl.edu SobekCM Digital Content Management System] which is built on a pair-tree structure of METS resources with [http://ufdc.ufl.edu/design/webcontent/sobekcm/SobekCM_Resource_Object.pdf rich metadata support] including DC, MODS, MARC, VRACore, DarwinCore, IEE-LOM, GML/KML, schema.org microdata, and many other standard schemas. The system has emphasized online, distributed creation and maintenance of resources including geo-placement and geographic searching of resources, building structure maps (table of contents) visually online, and a broad suite of curator tools.

This work is presented as a model which could be implemented in other systems as well. We will demonstrate current support and discuss our upcoming roadmap to provide complete support.

== Dead-simple Video Content Management: Let Your Filesystem Do The Work ==

* Andreas Orphanides, NCSU Libraries (akorphan (at) ncsu.edu)
** (never led or soloed a C4L presentation)

Content management is hard. To keep all the moving parts in order, and to maintain a layer of separation between the system and content creators (who are frequently not technical experts), we typically turn to content management systems like Drupal. But even Drupal and its kin require significant overhead and present a not inconsiderable learning curve for nontechnical users.

In some contexts it's possible -- and desirable -- to manage content in a more streamlined, lightweight way, with a minimum of fuss and technical infrastructure. In this presentation I'll share a simple MVC-like architecture for managing video content for playback on the web, which uses a combination of Apache's mod_rewrite module and your server's filesystem structure to provide an automated approach to video content management that's easy to implement and provides a low barrier to content updates: friendly to content creators and technology implementors alike. Even better, the basic method is HTML5-friendly, and can be integrated into your favorite content management system if you've got permissions for creating templates.

In the presentation I'll go into detail about the system structure and logic required to implement this approach. I'll detail the benefits and limitations of the system, as well as the challenges I encountered in developing its implementation. Audience members should come away with sufficient background to implement a similar system on their own servers. Implementation documentation and genericized code will also be shared, as available.

== Sorting it out: a piece of the User Centered Design Process ==

* Cindy Beggs, [http://www.akendi.com/aboutus/management/ Akendi], cindy@akendi.com

This talk is about how to apply a user centered design methodology to the process of creating an information architecture. Participants learn the fundamentals of UCD and how card sorting and reverse card sorting enable us to isolate the content we present on screen from the layouts and visuals of those screens. We talk about ways to identify who will be using the information architecture you are creating and why we need to know how it will be used.

What will attendees takes away from your talk?
The criticality of involving “real” end users in the process of creating an information architecture. The basics of following a user-centered-design process in the creation of best in class, content-rich, digital products.

Cindy Beggs has been working in the “information industry” for over 25 years. A librarian by profession, she has spent decades helping users figure out how to find their way through large bodies of content. Her insights into how people seek information, her empathy for those who find it a challenge and her practical experience helping organizations figure out how to best structure their content contribute to her success as an information architect with both clients and trainees.

==Implementation of ArchivesSpace in University of Richmond==

*Birong Ho, bho@richmond.edu

University of Richmond implemented its archive collection management ArchivsSpace in the fall, 2013. As a charter member and the Head of Special Collection as the Board member, implementation of such an Open Source Software became a priority.

Several aspects of implementation will be addressed in the talk. Among them, they are Collections and Repository, storage layer including data format, System resources requirements, Technical architecture, Customization, scaling and integrated with other systems in the library.

The customization, scale, and integration with other systems such as Archeon and Exist on campus became a concern will be focused and elaborated in the talk.

Oregon State University is currently implementing an updated version of its room reservation system. In its development we've come across and implemented a variety of "easy wins" to make it more responsive, easier to maintain, less expensive to run, and just cooler to experience. While our particular system was in Ruby on Rails, this talk will address general methods and example utilities which can be used no matter your stack.

I'll be talking about things like cache management, reverse proxies, publish/subscribe servers, WebSockets, responsive design, asynchronous processing, and keeping complicated stacks up and running with minimal effort.

Albion College (and particularly the Library/Archives and Special Collections) has a variety of needs which could be met by an open-source Institutional Repository system. Several months and lots of conversations later, we’re continuing to troubleshoot our way through Islandora. We’d like to talk about what has worked for us, where our frustrations have been, whether it’s even possible to install and develop a system like this at a small institution, and where the process has stalled.

As of right now, we do have a semi-working installation. We’re not sure when it will be ready for our end users, but we'll talk about our development process and evaluate our progress.

== PhantomJS+Selenium: Easy Automated Testing of AJAX-y UIs ==

* Mark Redar, California Digital Library, mark.redar@ucop.edu

Web user interfaces are demanding ever-more dynamism and polish, combining HTML5, AJAX, lots of CSS and jQuery (or ilk) to create autocomplete drop-downs, intelligent buttons, stylish alert dialogs, etc. How can you make automated tests for these highly complex and interactive UIs?

Part of the answer is PhantomJS. It’s a modern WebKit browser that’s “headless” (meaning it has no display) that can be driven from command-line Selenium unit tests. PhantomJS is dead simple to install, and its blazing speed and server-friendliness make continuous integration testing easy. You can write UI unit tests in {language-of-your-choice} and run them not just in PhantomJS but in Firefox and Chrome, plus a zillion browser/OS combinations at places like SauceLabs, TestingBot and BrowserStack.

In this double-team live code talk, we’ll explain all that while we demonstrate the following in real time:

* Start with nothing.
* Install Selenium bindings for Ruby and Python.
* In each language write a small test of an AJAX-y UI.
* Run the tests in Firefox, and fix bugs (in the test or UI) as needed.
* Install PhantomJS.
* Show the same tests running headless as part of a server-friendly test suite.
* (Wifi permitting) Show the same tests running on a couple different browser/OS combinations on the server cloud at SauceLabs – talking through a tunnel to the local firewalled application.

==New Technologies, Collaboration, & Entrepreneurship in Libraries: Harnessing Their Power to Help Your Library==

* Howard Spivak – howards@brooklyn.cuny.edu
* Alex - Alex@brooklyn.cuny.edu

Academic libraries are caught in budget squeezes and often struggle to find ways to communicate value to senior administration and others. At Brooklyn College Library, we have taken an unusual, possibly unique, approach to these issues. Our technology staff have long worked directly with librarians to develop products that meet library, faculty, and student needs, and we have shared many of our products with colleagues, including an award-winning website, e-resource, and content management system we call 4MyLibrary, which we shared for free with 8 CUNY colleges, and also an easy-to-use book scanner, which has proven overwhelming popular with students, faculty, other librarians, and numerous campus offices. Recently, motivated by budget cuts, we decided that what worked for us might interest other libraries, and working with our Office of Technology Commercialization, we started selling 2 products: our book scanners (at half the price of commercial alternatives), and a hosting service, whereby we could host and support 4MyLibrary for libraries with minimal technology staff. Both succeeded, and yielded major benefits: a steady revenue stream and the admiration and serious goodwill of our senior administration and others. However, this presentation is neither a basic how-to, nor an advertisement. With this presentation, we hope to spur a conversation for broader collaboration, especially regarding new technologies, among libraries. We all have some level of technical expertise, most of us are struggling with rising prices and tight budgets, and many of us are unhappy with various technology products we use, from scanners to our ILS. We believe – and can demonstrate – that with collaboration, we can solve many of our problems, and provide better services to boot.

ORCID and DataCite provide stable identifiers for researchers and and data, respectively. Each system does a fine job of providing value to its users. But wouldn't it be great if they could link their systems to create something much more powerful? Perhaps even as powerful as a god?

Enter [http://odin-project.eu/ ODIN], The ORCID and DataCite Interoperability Network. ODIN is a two-year project to unleash the power of persistent identifiers for researchers and the research they create. This talk will present recent work from the ODIN project, including several tools that can unleash the godlike power of identifiers at your institution. Current tools include:
* Metadata generator tool: allows repository staff to create DataCite metadata with embedded ORCIDs.
* Claiming tool: assists researchers in claiming their work within the ORCID system.
* ORCID-feed: includes a list of ORCID works on any web page.
* ODIN's HAMR: assists in populating a DSpace repository with ORCIDs. Based on work from a Code4Lib hackathon!

Many of us are using the excellent Lucene library (or SOLR appliance) to provide search functionality. These systems contain number of features to adjust relevancy ranking of hits, but we may not know how to use them. In this presentation, I'll present the available options - eg. what is the default ranking 'Vector space model, what are the alternatives (eg. BM25) and what are the other options we have to tweak and adjust the ranking of the hits (eg. boost factors, functions). But even if we know how to deploy these adjustments and tweaks, we are still left in dark. We do not know whether the change we've just rolled out had a significant (statistically significant) effect or maybe it was just a waste of time and resources? A/B testing is one option, but there may be a much better one - so called "Multi-Armed Bandits Approach". And in this talk I'd like to show how we are experimenting with this strategy to adjust [http://labs.adsabs.harvard.edu/adsabs/ ADS search engine].

== Building Worker Queues with AWS and Resque ==

* Eric Rochester [http://scholarslab.org Scholars' Lab], erochest@virginia.edu
* Scott Turnbull [http://aptrust.org/ Academic Preservation Trust], scott.turnbull@aptrust.org

A common task in larger systems is to be able to process large input files automatically. Often users can drop those files into a shared directory on AWS or on NFS or another shared drive. Those files need to be processed and potentially integrated into a system. This task has come up recently in the University of Virginia libraries in allowing users to add GIS data to the system and in setting up a system for the Academic Preservation Trust (http://aptrust.org/) that ingests files and resources into the preservation system.

This system is built by loosely coupling a number of different technologies. This allows us to easily interoperate and communicate between different system and programming environments. Because the interfaces are well defined, it’s also fairly simple to switch out technologies as the requirements of the system change.

The process is fairly simple:

First, a Ruby daemon monitors an AWS S3 bucket that others can upload new files into. This daemon creates a Resque status task, adds a marker for the task in a database, and continues monitoring.

Second, Resque mediates incoming job requests and routes them to the appropriate workers which may be in Java, Go, or Ruby. The diversity of technologies that Resque can manage allows great latitude to leverage the appropriate tool for a specific job. While processing, it updates the status for that job and coordinates processing with other jobs.

Finally, a page that is integrated into a larger Rails app provides a novice-user-friendly view of the status of the workers and allows basic tasks such as restarting the job.

This architecture allows us to swap in the technology that best fits each part of the process, and it makes it easier to maintain the system. We use this to integrate and coordinate between tasks handled in Java, Ruby, and Go, and it provides an effective way to interoperate with these programming languages and the respective strengths that they bring to this system.

== Sustaining your Open Source project through training ==

While Google Analytics is synonymous with Web Analytics, fortunately today we have many other good options, and one option is Piwik, [http://piwik.org| piwik.org] a simple to install, open-source PHP/MySQL application with a tracking script that will sit alongside Google Analytics tracking the usual clicks, events and variables. In this presentation, I'd like to cover the usual analytics topics and also cover what makes Piwik powerful, such as importing and visualizing web logs from any system to incorporate both past and future data, easily tracking downloads, and the ability to write your own reports or dashboard. The visitor log data is stored securely on your own server so you have control over who looks at the data and how much or how little to keep. With an active and helpful developer community, Piwik has the potential for analytics which makes sense for libraries, not e-commerce.

== Next Generation Catalogue - RDF as a Basis for New Services ==

Oslo Public Library has converted the entire MARC-catalogue to RDF via the self-made conversion tool MARC2RDF.

[http://digital.deichman.no/data.deichman.no/| data.deichman.no], the enriched RDF version of the library catalogue including its authority files, forms the basis for two different mashups; The Active shelf and the Book recommendation database. The RDF catalogue is linked with various content and the dataset is updated daily to account for additions, deletions and changes made in the MARC catalogue.

[http://vimeo.com/68687814| The Active shelf] is a physical touchscreen device that makes use of open source software, RFID technology, RDF data and external web service APIs to provide information about any library book a patron is curious to know more about.

The Book recommendations database stores book recommendations written by library staff from all over Norway and links them to the RDF-representation of the MARC-catalogue.

==Economics of Scale: Thinking about Metadata Quality and Completeness for Fun and Profit==
* William Hicks, University of North Texas (William.hicks@unt.edu)

The UNT Libraries Digital Collections constitute three internet gateways, The Portal to Texas History, UNT Digital Library, and the Gateway to Oklahoma History, making available to the public a wide range of materials, from photographs and newspapers, to dissertations and recordings of music ensemble performances. The collections disseminate over 500,000 unique items, that were used over 9 millions times last year and with growth trends in both areas shows no signs of slowing.

As the size and scope of our collections has grown, so to has a pressing need to think clearly about the quality of our metadata, the completeness of our records, and the most efficient way of doing metadata entry. Not surprisingly there have been a few things written on the subject and so over the last few months we’ve started writing new code and getting the infrastructure of our metadata editing system to a place where we can begin to test these ideas on our ever expanding dataset. What kinds of questions are we looking to answer, and what types of tools are we building? That’s what this talk will be all about, but here are a few ideas to ponder:

* What kinds of tools have we built, or can we employ to standardize data entry and aid the user in their input needs?
* How close does a metadata record come to a “completeness” standard? What does that even look like? What are the implications when we look at such a standard at scale?
* If we can identify what we think a “quality” metadata record “is”, historically speaking, how close do we get to that ideal?
* Does an item’s history matter? Can we quantify it and locate value in change through time?
* What are the economic costs of metadata entry? If we have enough quantifiable measures about the types of objects in our systems, and we can profile our data entry personnel, what can this say about optimizing staff time and return on investment?
* What sort of priorities are we setting for ourselves when we treat all items as equal, when clearly some types of materials get vastly more use by the public.
* Finally what kinds of analysis tools might we develop to gauge our overall metadata “health,” to steer projects, or to ultimately improve our systems for our end user’s needs?

Most of our questions are still quite open ended, and honestly we are just getting started down this road. But as digital collections grow, and library budgets realign or shrink, it becomes increasingly important to back up our assertions and opinions with numbers, and find more efficient ways to work with the resources we have.

==A Different Kind of Search: Query Analysis of Map Search==
* Zoe Chao, University of New Mexico (zoechao@unm.edu)
* No previous Code4Lib presentation

Map searches are an increasingly important part of university and library websites. In 2012, The University of New Mexico (UNM) replaced its original PDF based campus maps (http://iss.unm.edu/PCD/campus-map.html) with an interactive map search based on the free Google Maps API. In addition to the basic map information such as streets and building outlines, we added search capabilities and categories for browsing (http://search.unm.edu/maps/). From November 2012 to September 2013, we logged about six thousand search instances on the campus map search. This data suggests that map searching presents a fundamentally different kind of search for users which results in a large number of failed searches that return empty or misleading result sets.

In this presentation we will briefly describe the development and current implementation of the UNM map search and our data collection of search queries. We then discuss the some surprising findings based on the data analysis. For instance, a large number of map queries include specific room numbers, which indicates some users perceive the search to include buildings' floor plans. This result suggests that we need to truncate numbers from queries in order to return correct building locations. Finally we will talk about the insight we gained from the data and our next steps toward the data driven interface design.

==More Like This: Approaches to Recommending Related Items using Subject Headings==
* Kevin Beswick, NCSU Libraries (kdbeswic@ncsu.edu)
** No previous code4lib presentations

With a significant portion of the collection at our new Hunt Library being housed in an automated storage and retrieval system, several of us at NCSU Libraries have begun looking at ways to replace and improve upon the classic shelf browsing experience in order to make it easier for patrons to browse related materials. Our goal is to mimic popular services like Amazon and Netflix, which utilize recommendation engines to make it easy for users to find items similar to a particular item of interest. While there have been previous efforts in libraries to recreate this experience using circulation or call number data, we are currently investigating algorithms that focus on use of subject headings. Use of subject headings as an alternative can be particularly helpful in the case of electronic materials that do not always have call numbers or circulation data. In this talk, I will share:

* Details of the proposed algorithms
* How these algorithms were quickly and easily implemented using Solr.
* Our evaluation process and its outcomes in terms of the effectiveness of the algorithms.
* How this has (or could) impact presentation of recommended items in our discovery layer.

== Questioning Authority: building a ruby gem to facilitate UI interactions with varied controlled vocabularies ==

* [[User:Mhbussey|Mark Bussey]], Data Curation Experts, mark@curationexperts.com

At a recent Hydra meeting, developers from five different institutions all realized that they had similar needs to support various types of UI fields based on a multiple of internal and external authorities and controlled vocabularies. Their goals was to develop a tool that let them meet these needs in ways that minimized the need for custom coding for each vocabulary. During an intense three-day working session, they minted the initial release of the [https://github.com/projecthydra/questioning_authority/blob/master/README.md questioning authority] gem.

The talk will cover both how cross-institutional development helped speed development and how the gem can be used for accessing both external vocabularies like LCSH and LCNA and for presenting internal vocabulary lists. Although the developing institutions are all Hydra implementers, the gem itself doesn't have any Hydra dependencies and can be used in any Rails or Blacklight based application.

== Building Hydra, a framework; a community ==

[mailto:justin@curationexperts.com Justin Coyne] Project Hydra contributor / Data Curation Experts

More than just a repository, the [http://projecthydra.org Hydra Project] is a community of cultural heritage institutions dedicated to pooling knowledge and resources. It is a completely open source project that has grown continuously for over 5 years. Within this vibrant community, a number of conventions and practices have emerged that we believe will benefit others attempting to cultivate support for their community oriented projects. The Hydra Project is now a mature initiative which is producing shareable, reusable and customizable components as well as complete repository solutions. In a time of tight budgets and growing demand for improved systems, we believe that "the Hydra way" is the exemplar case in the library community for how to work across institutions to deliver high quality services to our patrons. This talk will cover both the technical and human processes that have sustained Hydra's continued development and growth.

== JQuery XML Editor ==

Presenter: Ben Pennell, UNC Chapel Hill Libraries (bbpennel@email.unc.edu)
no previous C4L presentations

The jquery.xmleditor is a portable jquery widget developed by the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Libraries for the purpose of simplifying the description workflow for existing objects in our digital repository. It does so by adding context and structure informed by an underlying XML schema. Even more generally, it creates and modifies XML documents in your web browser.

It can be found here, including a live demo:
[https://github.com/UNC-Libraries/jquery.xmleditor]

Features include:
* Graphical editor mode for displaying and modifying XML elements
* Text editor mode for directly modifying the underlying document (using the Cloud9 editor)
* Contextual, schema driven menus for adding new elements, subelements and attributes in both the graphical and text editing modes
* Fully javascript and CSS based, jquery widget
* AJAX submission of document modifications
* Ability to export XML document to a file in web browsers that support it
* Keyboard shortcuts for navigation and other operations
* Standalone tool for building JSON representations of XML schemas

In our own implementation, the tool communicates with a Fedora based SWORD 2 enabled repository to receive the starting MODS document and to submit changes. But it's all XML in the end, and includes options for exporting to file or submitting to any endpoint that accepts XML.

This presentation will include an overview of the development process, technologies and issues involved, as well as a brief demonstration of the editor in use. It will also touch on the tool backing the editor which constructs JSON objects from schemas.

== Visualizing Library Resources as Networks ==
* [mailto:matthewmiller@nypl.org Matt Miller] New York Public Library, NYPL Labs.
**No previous C4L presentations

Library resources are typically presented linearly in the form of a catalog search results page or an iterative list of subjects, books, special collections, etc. This talk explores the possibilities created when thinking of library resources as interconnected networks. We will look at the progress of a project to visualize NYPL resources such as catalog subject headings[1][2] as a network. We will also look at moving beyond visualizations into building network interfaces, such as our archival access term explorer[3] prototype.

== Island or Archipelago? Reducing Repository Redundancy at University of Toronto Libraries ==

*[mailto:sallain@utsc.utoronto.ca Sara Allain], Special Collections Librarian, University of Toronto Scarborough
*[mailto:kbabcock@utsc.utoronto.ca Kelli Babcock], Special Projects Librarian, Special Projects Librarian, University of Toronto Scarborough
*No previous Code4Lib presentations

This session will address a big issue in library technology – the creation of redundant repositories across large, multi-library institutions. We will discuss an ongoing collaboration at the University of Toronto: the development of Collections UofT, an Islandora/Drupal instance intended to support the special collections projects of UofT's community, faculty members, and 44 libraries. We will look at:

*Successful communication strategies imperative to fostering collaboration among project stakeholders
*Complications caused by legacy repositories and varying metadata standards
*Negotiating branding and usability requirements for disparate projects
*Focused outreach to generate community buy-in
*Defining the roles and responsibilities of the repository's community
*Generating a proactive response to the above issues through documentation, issue reporting, and standardized Memoranda of Understanding

As the University of Toronto Libraries continue to facilitate and develop digital projects, it is vital that our systems be both centralized and flexible, able to meet the needs of various collaborators across a wide range of subject areas. Collections UofT is our first step towards a brighter digital future for special collections at the University of Toronto.

== So You Think You Want to Be a DPLA Service Hub?: Building a Statewide Repository System for the Commonwealth ==

* Steven Anderson, Boston Public Library (sanderson@bpl.org)
**No previous presentations at national Code4Lib conferences (excluding one lightning talk in 2013)

**No previous presentations at national Code4Lib conferences

Built upon the Hydra stack, the [https://search.digitalcommonwealth.org Digital Commonwealth] repository system houses a variety of digital content from over a dozen Massachusetts libraries. In addition, we also harvest metadata via OAI-PMH from many other institutions throughout the state that lives alongside hosted content in (relative) harmony. This talk will discuss the development of our repository, with an emphasis on the specialized use cases that are involved in creating a system to serve as a DPLA service hub.

As a DPLA hub, we have many contributing institutions using many different systems (Omeka, DSpace, CONTENTdm, Fedora/Hydra, etc.) with OAI feeds that we need to harvest from and convert into our data storage format. Come hear about our journey into the madness of what people can put into their metadata records and our data normalization strategies for adding this content to our system.

We'll also cover:

* Inherited design structure: Each OAI source has its own metadata nuances, and creating a "single script to rule them all" is out of the question (even if the records use the same schema and/or come from the same system). It is, however, possible to use good object-oriented principles to first cover general cases and then adjust for each institution's metadata style. In addition, our system uses content models that inherit from more basic implementations that make dealing with various types of heterogeneous content in our system much less painful.

* Interface design: How do you create an online metadata editor for world's widest user base, from septuagenarian volunteers to academic librarians? How do you design a search interface that keeps content from a small historical society from getting lost in a sea of material contributed by statewide organizations? We've got answers.

* Useful libraries and techniques: '''> 120'''. That's how many date formats our system currently supports when reading from an OAI feed. What libraries did we use to help parse that information? How are we generating thumbnails for various types of content when none are provided? We'll cover useful libraries and gems that make the hub developer's life worth living again.

==Getting a New Website Without Losing the Old One==

The NCSU Libraries last website redesign launch was in August 2010. The stated goal then was to position our website and our organization for a future of evolving through more iterative changes and agile workflows. This year’s latest evolution to a responsive designed website carried out this approach. We made incremental changes that retrofitted the face of the existing desktop website to be responsive-ready while simultaneously developing a fully-responsive Drupal theme.

Staff and end-users saw incremental changes starting with flattening the visual design, followed by font and spacing changes, modularizing existing page elements, and finally new responsive headers, footers and page layouts. This approach allowed us to re-use large portions of existing code, and to provide a more gradual shift for styaff and end-users. This iterative design process allows for testing and internal evaluation along the way. It also highlights IA and Content Strategy issues to be addressed in later projects.

We will talk about how scoping the project to these technical changes while largely maintaining the existing site IA, content, and visual design elements has a number of advantages with a few challenges.

==Solr faceted title/call-number/heading browse with inline cross-references==

* Michael Gibney, University of Pennsylvania (mgibney@pobox.upenn.edu)
* No previous presentations at national Code4Lib conferences

I would like to present an overview of recent development at the University of Pennsylvania library leveraging Solr/Lucene data structures to allow true browse (e.g. for Call Number, Title, Author, and Subject) with inline cross-references, over arbitrary subsets of records (as restricted by filters/facets/queries). Challenges addressed in development include:

* 1. Providing for efficient normalized term sorting (with highly-configurable normalization) while preserving term case and formatting for term-centric display.
* 2. Allowing record-centric display of results retrieved via term index (effectively allowing sorting on multi-valued fields). This point applies mainly to Call Number and Title browse.
* 3. Inline display (with associated record counts) of cross-references for heading terms (as of Nov. 8, 2013, implemented only for Author browse using LC authority file as represented in VIAF, but designed to be readily extended to apply to subject headings, and multiple, query-time configurable authority schemes).

The solution that will be presented is native to Solr/Lucene (an extension of UnInvertedField), and is related to the approach suggested by Jonathan Rochkind at: http://bibwild.wordpress.com/2010/06/05/note-to-self-more-ideas-for-browse-search-in-solr/. It is extremely lightweight, with the only dependencies being already supplied by Solr/Lucene on the classpath. It is flexible and easily configured via Solr configuration files. Being related strictly to Solr/Lucene, it should be front-end agnostic and equally applicable in VUFind, Blacklight, or any other framework using a Solr backend.

The resulting functionality is in production at http://franklin.library.upenn.edu/. It is still under heavy development, and questions/comments/criticism would be welcome. The source code has not been released open source, but hopefully that will change in the near future.

==Queue Programming -- how using job queues can make the Library coding world a better place==

*Birkin James Diana, Brown University (birkin_diana@brown.edu)
**I've given one or two C4L 20-minute talks and a few lightning ones over the years

In 2007 we built a system that dumped certain user web-requests for books into a database for offline-processing triggered via cron. We wanted to make the magic happen live, but knew it would take too long. Thus we created, sort of accidentally, a kind of old-fashioned static procedural job queue.

Over the years we we've been repeatedly impressed with how useful and robust this unintended architecture has been, and it fostered thinking about using real job queues in Library workflows.

Fast-forward to the present. We now are using _real_ job queueing, in production, for parts of the functioning of Brown Digital Repository. We've also used it for ingestion scripts, and plan to move more lots more code to this architecture.

I'd like to share & show:
* our lightweight rq/redis job queueing setup
* how using job queues can speed up workflows via using multiple workers
* how job queueing can make workflows more robust, especially by simplifying failure handling
* a way we've smoothly avoided race-conditions that can occur in concurrent-programming
* a technique for using task-processing job queues to simplify complex workflows

== How Can a new NISO Recommended Practice Help Me? ==
* [mailto:nettie@niso.org Nettie Lagace], Associate Director of Programs, National Information Standards Organization (NISO)
* No previous C4L presentations (except for lightning talks in 2012 and 2013)

Two new NISO recommended practices are on their way to publication and hopefully, uptake and adoption: a specification for Open Access Metadata and Indicators (OAMI) and a Protocol for Exchanging Serial Content (PESC). Who are the stakeholders and potential users of these? How are they expected to be applied? This presentation will cover specification and implementation details for these two community-developed recommendations and utilize them as examples of consensus standards completed in a short turnaround time period.

The NISO Open Access Metadata and Indicators recommendations are a mechanism for transmitting the access status of scholarly works: peer reviewed articles published in subscription and hybrid journals, material available in institutional repositories, or any other such applicable material. Clear information regarding re-use rights must be included in this communication; “open access” on its own may not convey potential downstream uses. In addition, embargoes often come into play regarding availability of material.

The NISO Protocol for Exchanging Serial Content attempts to address an entirely different conundrum: how can digital files which make up serial content (which may well include text and images or other associated data) be successfully transmitted from partner to partner while including metadata requirements for description and organization of content? This information is needed for those who archive and preserve content, as well as those who may aggregate it, index it, or convert it to other uses. As more serial content is shipped to disparate stakeholders for all manner of potential uses, a common protocol will prevent local reinvention of the wheel.

Standards are entities that users in many communities often love to hate (http://xkcd.com/927/), but when projects need to be completed in a timely, cost-effective way and when interoperability with other entities is key, (almost) everyone will look to see if there is an existing standard or best practice in existence to help them get started. In order for standards and best practices to gain acceptance and adoption, it is critical for their development process to involve as many potential stakeholders and eventual user communities as possible.

== A reusable application to enable self deposit of complex objects into a digital preservation environment==

* Jill Sexton jill@email.unc.edu, UNC Chapel Hill Libraries

* Greg Jansen count0@email.unc.edu, UNC Chapel Hill Libraries

Jill gave a lightning talk once, otherwise no previous C4L presentations

Patron-initiated ingest of complex, multi-part objects into digital preservation environments remains a challenging problem for many libraries. In this talk we discuss how we approached this problem at UNC Chapel Hill.

UNC Chapel Hill Libraries is the developer of the Curator’s Workbench, (download: http://www2.lib.unc.edu/software/ GitHub Repo: https://github.com/UNC-Libraries/Curators-Workbench/wiki) an open-source collections preparation and work flow tool for digital materials. In response to the demand for patron-initiated ingest into our preservation repository, we extended the functionality of the Workbench, creating a module that enables easy creation of web deposit forms suitable for varying content types. The forms use dictionary and crosswalk mapping components to map the input fields to the MODS schema. Form designs also include explanatory text and designation of required fields. The forms work in tandem with a server-side form-hosting application, which can be configured to put uploads and MODS records onto a filesystem, or to deposit materials into a repository via SWORD. The forms feature simplifies the creation of deposit forms, shifting form design from software developers to curators, who have greater familiarity with both the depositor community and with descriptive standards. We also shift metadata creation to the content creators, who have the most knowledge of submitted materials.

We will demonstrate how this process works for the submission of Studio Art MFA theses. These complex deposits consist of a narrative description of the artwork in addition to up to 20 video- or image-based files documenting of their work, and associated metadata for each file. In addition to preserving MFA projects in a stable environment, this procedure gives graduate students greater control over the submission and description process and provides online access to MFA Art Theses and supporting works. Additionally, the project has invited discussions with MFA students about the preservation of their personal archives.

Our talk will address how these tools could work within other digital preservation environments

== Leveling Up: Migrating Multiple DSpace Repositories to a Multi-tenant Configuration. ==

In 2007 the California State University system started a project to provide a hosted institutional repository system for it’s individual campuses using the DSpace repository system. With limited technical staffing dedicated to the project, the result was a single server hosting seventeen individual and separate instances (including tomcat, databases and indexes). This lead to resource instability and lack of parity between versions, features and support. In order to overcome the shortcomings of this structure, a custom multi-tenant configuration was developed using the DSpace platform. This posed several technical challenges related to campus branding, authentication and deposit workflows.

During the development and testing of the multi-tenant structure of DSpace for the California State University system, constituent campuses continued to digitize works and create metadata in anticipation of a reliable system to insert these works. This created a situation where several campuses have created a lot of content and are looking for time saving measures for DSpace ingestion in order to continue work on the digitization projects. Development of a SWORD interface for bulk submission presented an attractive opportunity to provide a portal for bulk submission while avoiding the bottleneck of the provided method of FTP and DSpace scripting. Aaron Collier will talk about the technical challenges, and Carmen Mitchell will discuss the institutional needs: captioning, access copies vs display copies, workflow issues like batch uploading, embargoes, etc.

== Curate Cloud: The role of cloud computing in expanding the impact of digital curation ==

*Erik Mitchell (http://erikmitchell.info) University of California, Berkeley
*Jimmy Lin (http://www.umiacs.umd.edu/~jimmylin/) University of Maryland, College Park

Digital curation skills are a multidisciplinary and pressing need in public, academic and corporate environments (Yakel, 2007 336). By 2018, the United States will have a shortage of 140,000 -190,000 people with the deep analytical skills needed to manage large holdings of digital assets (Manyika et al., 2011). At the same time our information organizations will increasingly rely digital assets in making effective decisions (Ibid.). Despite advances in digital curation technologies, institutions create far more information than they curate in large part due to a gap in skills and perceived financial and technical barriers to entry (Heidorn, 2008). These barriers can seem insurmountable for smaller and under-represented information and cultural heritage institutions. However, new cloud computing based digital curation technologies reduce many of the financial and technical barriers so that the greatest challenge remaining is a need for updated skills and digital curation competencies.

Our information and cultural memory institutions require a new generation of professionals engaged in the preservation of digital resources and prepared to deploy curation tools that are not dependent on local technology infrastructure. In order to develop these competencies, Curate Cloud, a project being led by Dr. Jimmy Lin at the University of Maryland, College Park seeks to educate the next generation of information professionals using a curriculum integrated, cloud-based virtual learning environment.

The environment, designed using Amazon Web Service infrastructure and deployed in a “zero-configuration” environment lowers barriers of entry to students when learning about new technologies and cultivates a new level of cloud-based IT literacies in these students. This project draws on the successes of similar programs and pushes further by developing and deploying a novel cloud-based, open source virtual research and learning environment (VRLE) that embraces the on-demand, self-service model of cloud computing and features cloud-based curation tools that will enable the exploration of digital curation across the education, library, archive, and museum (LIS/LAM) community.

The presentation will focus on the research findings from the use of the VRLE in Library and Information Science education arenas as well as the challenges and opportunities that relate to delivering complex IT instruction using cloud computing platforms. The codebase for the VRLE is available at https://github.com/mitcheet.

This project is supported by the Institute for Museum and Library Services and Amazon Web Services through the Amazon Educational Research program.

**No previous presentations at Code4Lib

The web has become much more dynamic and interactive in recent times. Sites more closely resemble full-blown applications, rather than static information resources. We see an opportunity for libraries to adhere to the same design principles used by popular websites, to create a more intuitive and enjoyable user experience.

In our presentation, we will discuss the results from usability testing after a website redesign in 2012 (library.buffalostate.edu), our guiding design principles, and showcase some of our solutions that enhance user experience, such as responsive web design, unified searching (Knowledge Base, Summon, website documents), and transitional interfaces.

Frameworks can be exploited to significantly reduce the time needed to develop powerful and engaging web applications. For example, we can use motion and transitional interfaces to help convey the sense of “space” in web design.

The goal is to create an engaging experience to draw our users in. When this is achieved, it encourages usage and creates an enjoyable place that is more than just a tool, but also a place for discovery.

== Responsive Web Design - A Paradigm Shift ==

* Jenny Brandon, Web Designer/Librarian, Michigan State University Libraries (jbrandon@msu.edu)

RWD is the biggest paradigm shift in web design in the last decade. This presentation will begin with a brief overview of responsive web design (RWD), elements of RWD, what types of frameworks are available and why you should choose one. Examples of library websites that have already implemented RWD will be analyzed to compare and contrast design methods. The remainder of the presentation will provide details on the Michigan State University Libraries' implementation of responsive web design using the Drupal Omega theme, and solutions adopted to transform an existing, fixed width library web site to a responsive design.

Topics included:
* flexible grids
* media queries
* mobile first
* images
* design considerations
* collaboration

In 2013, the Smithsonian Institution - the largest library, archive, museum and research center complex in the world - launched transcription.si.edu, the first release of the Smithsonian's Digital Volunteers platform. With the ambitious goal to engage varied audiences, enrich collections and enable discovery in ways never before imagined, the Transcription Center enlists the "crowd" to transcribe millions of pages of handwritten documents from across the Institution's vast and diverse collections. We will share our goals, strategies, and experiences as contributors and developers of this collaborative initiative among librarians, archivists and museum curators. Design, workflows, user analytics, templates, and discoveries will be demonstrated and discussed for formats as varied as botanical specimen files, diaries, ledgers, field notebooks, letters, and photographs. We will also showcase the benefit of using open source technology in building our system architecture and we will share our technical challenges and lessons learned along the way.

Ching-hsien Wang has not presented at Code4Lib conference before, but have participated in other conference presentations before.

Adam Wead and Michael Klein are organizing a viewing of [http://www.getlamp.com/ Get Lamp: The Text Adventure Documentary]

It's not about Linux, Apache, MySQL or PHP, but if you don't have a one, you might get eaten by a grue.

If there is additional interest, there may be another viewing this week.

===Morning Run Wednesday===
I (Ray Schwartz) will not be running on Wednesday. Though several others have said that they will meet at 7am in the Hotel Lobby. I would recommend to walk straight down west to the water front and turn right-heading north, following the pedestrian path. It goes on or some miles, so it is a good choice.

===Veg*n Dinner Wednesday===

We'll pick a place with lots of veg*n options to go eat Wednesday for dinner. Vegetarians and non-vegetarians welcome.

RIP Meat-Up. Going to Amazon for hurricanes.

(if you do not find a suitable burger joint, there are also some top-notch steakhouses in Seattle. Both the Metropolitan Grill and El Gaucho are delightful if folks are OK with $50 steaks. Just FYI, not trying to hijack your meat-up, Cary!. -mjgiarlo)

===Evergreen/Koha and friends dinner Wednesday===
Put your name and any food limitations, we're meeting in the hotel lobby at 6pm.

Going to [http://www.pikebrewing.com/ The Pike Brewing Company]. They can't take a reservation for the dining room, but we can ofder food off the same menu in the bar area.

===Wednesday afternoon tour===
Tour on Tuesday was nice, but less of a "behind the scenes" experience than I'd hoped. The tour guide talked a bit about the building, architecture and some of the design aspects that worked (and didn't). Unfortunately the Wed tour will not include the automatic materials sorting room. Again, max 20 people.

Also, Wednesday needs a group wrangler.

Meet the Anne Repass, your tour guide by the gift shop, just inside the 5th Ave entrance.

==Full Day==

===Drupal4lib Sub-con Barcamp===
====UIC Forum, Room E, 9:00 am to 5:00 pm on Monday, February 11====
* Contact [[User:highermath|Cary Gordon]], cgordon@chillco.com or
* [[User:cdmo|Charlie Morris]], NCSU Libraries, cdmorris@ncsu.edu

This will be a full day of self-selected barcamp style sessions. Anyone who wants to present can write down the topic on an index card and, after the keynote, we will vote to choose what we want to see. Attendees can also pick a topic and attempt to talk someone else into presenting on it.

If we run out of topics, we will pay homage to the project by testing patches for Drupal 8. It is easy, and we will show you how to do this invaluable task.

This event is open to the library community. There is a nominal fee ($10) for non-Code4LibCon attendees.

Local Drupal uber-ninja Larry Garfield had to cancel, but we were very fortunate to get Steve Persch to offer to stop by and answer questions and give us some guidance in the afternoon.

'''If you have not signed up. just show up and see Charlie or Cary. We will work out the details!'''

Are you interested in making it easier for users to obtain copies of known items? Do you feel your OpenURL and Interlibrary Loan software could be streamlined? This pre-conference workshop will focus on providing services that deliver content to users. Discovery systems are doing a better job of exposing library holdings but there's still a lot of work to do actually get the content in the users hands.

Possible topics/activities include:
* group discussion of what some libraries have done in this area
* comparisons of different approaches to addressing delivery
* overview of tools available
* sharing of strategies and experiences
* time to work with and review open source code in this area. Some possible tools to install and test out [https://github.com/team-umlaut/umlaut Umlaut], [https://github.com/lawlesst/heroku-360link Py360 Link].

===Intro to NoSQL Databases===
====1-470 Richard J. Daley Library, 9:00 am to 12:00 pm on Monday, February 11====
* Joshua Gomez, George Washington University, jngomez at gwu edu

Since Google published its paper on BigTable in 2006, alternatives to the traditional relational database model have been growing in both variety and popularity. These new databases (often referred to as NoSQL databases) excel at handling problems faced by modern information systems that the traditional relational model cannot. They are particularly popular among organizations tackling the so-called "Big Data" problems. However, there are always tradeoffs involved when making such dramatic changes. Understanding how these different kinds of databases are designed and what they can offer is essential to the decision making process. In this precon I will discuss some of the various types of new databases (key-value, columnar, document, graph) and walk through examples or exercises using some of their open source implementations like Riak, HBase, MongoDB or CouchDB, and Neo4j.

==Half Day Afternoon==
=== Data Visualization Hackfest ===
====1-470 Richard J. Daley Library, 1:30 pm to 5:30 pm on Monday, February 11====
* Chris Beer, cabeer at stanford.edu
* Dan Chudnov, dchud at gwu edu

* Description: Want to hack/design/plan/document on a team of people who enjoy learning by creating? Interested in data visualization? Well, this hackfest is for you. Not familiar with the concept of a hackfest? See Roy Tennant's [http://www.libraryjournal.com/article/CA332564.html "Where Librarians Go To Hack"] and the page for the [http://access2010.lib.umanitoba.ca/node/3.html Access 2010 Hackfest]. We propose a half-day hackfest with a focus on visualization library data -- think stuff like library catalog data, access/circulation statistics, etc. Here's how it works, roughly:
- we'll (you'll!) do lightning tutorials for some data visualization tools, toolkits (R? d3js? ?), datasets.
- we'll separate into groups and hack on stuff.
- at the end of the day, we'll present our progress.

Not a code hacker? No worries; all skill sets and backgrounds are valuable!

* Justin Coyne, Data Curation Experts (justin.coyne at curationexperts.com)
* Mark Bussey, Data Curation Experts (mark at curationexperts.com)

Hydra (http://projecthydra.org) is a free and open source repository solution that is being used by institutions on both sides of the North Atlantic to provide access to their digital content. Hydra provides a versatile and feature rich environment for end-users and repository administrators alike. Leveraging Blacklight as its front end discovery interface, the hydra project provides a suite of software components, data models, and design patterns for building a robust and sustainable digital repository, as well as a community of support for ongoing development. This workshop will provide an introduction to the hydra project and its software components. Attendees will leave with enough knowledge to get started building their own local repository solutions. This workshop will be led by Adam Wead of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

=== Intro to Blacklight ===

* Bess Sadler, Stanford University Library (bess at stanford.edu)
* Jason Ronallo, NC State (jronallo at gmail.com)
* Shaun Ellis (helper), Princeton University Library, (shaune@princeton.edu)

Blacklight (http://projectblacklight.org) is a free and open source discovery interface built on solr and ruby on rails. It is used by institutions such as Stanford University, NC State, WGBH, Johns Hopkins University, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and an ever expanding community of adopters and contributors. Blacklight can be used as a front-end discovery solution for an ILS, or the contents of a digital repository, or to provide a unified discovery solution for many siloed collections. In this workshop we will cover the basics of solr indexing and searching, setting up and customizing Blacklight, and leave time for Q&A around local issues people might encounter.

Note: this workshop will be tailored as a follow-on to the morning's RailsBridge Intro to Ruby on Rails workshop, but everyone is welcome

=== DPLA Intro/Hacking ===
==== Seminar Room A <s>1-470 of the Daley Library</s>, 1:30 - 5:30 pm Mon, February 11====
* Presenter(s)/Leader(s): Nate Hill (Chattanooga Public Library, DPLA Audience and Participation Co-chair), SJ Klein (Wikimedia, OLPC, DPLA Technical Aspects Co-chair), Jeff Licht (DPLA Technical Development Project Manager)

The [http://dp.la Digital Public Library of America] (DPLA) is an open source metadata repository that provides read-only access to millions of records from across the United States via an open REST API. All API queries are returned as JSON-LD, a lightweight linked data format, and the metadata is freely reusable under a CC0 public domain license. A front-end portal is currently under development and will be launched in April 2013, though it will serve as but one way into the DPLA’s data. The DPLA encourages the development of applications and tools by developers of all skill levels and backgrounds. In this workshop, participants will actively code against the API to make apps, visualization tools, plug-ins, and other interesting tools that make use of DPLA data.

Seminar A is now free. (as of 1:38pm) See you there! <strike>we will meet at 1-470 for an intro and move to a separate space to hack</strike>

=== Fail4lib ===

[https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ovChi-ViBagkp4MuhQEiBCOPuUh7hqaLRTY4Up2WvQY/edit?usp=sharing Fail4Lib notes]

====1-360 Richard J. Daley Library, 1:30 pm to 5:30 pm on Monday, February 11====
* Jason Casden, NCSU Libraries (jmcasden at ncsu.edu)
* Andreas Orphanides, NCSU Libraries (akorphan at ncsu.edu)

The Code4lib community is full of driven people who embrace the risks that are often associated with new projects. While these traits lead to the incredible projects that are presented at Code4lib, creative technical work also often leads to unexpected, vexing, or disappointing results even from eventually successful projects (however you define the term). Learning more about how our colleagues deal with failure in various contexts could lead to the development of better methods for communicating the value of productive failure, modifying project plans ("The Pivot"), and failing more cheaply.

Hopefully we can define the format as a group, but a fairly high level of participation is crucial if this is to be a worthwhile preconference. Some possible agenda items that could be mixed and matched to fill the afternoon:

# Given willing presenters, a series of 10-20 minute presentations that go into some depth about specific failures.
# Depending on the number of participants, either a multi- or single-track series of unconference-like themed discussions on various aspects of failure, possibly including themes like:
#* Technical failure
#* Failure to effectively address a real user need
#* Overinvestment
#* Outreach/Promotion failure
#* Design/UX failure
#* Project team communication failure
#* Missed opportunities (risk-averse failure)
#* Successes gleaned from failures
# A panel of participants who have prepared in advance to answer moderator and audience questions about their experience with failure.
# A prepared reading assignment that we could all forget to read, creating a shared fail in order to start the preconference on the right foot.

I'll serve as a moderator (if needed) and participant and would welcome more organizers. I am happy to be outvoted by participants on any of these points--I just want to get us talking about our screw-ups, blind spots, and anvils dropping from the sky.

=== Solr 4 In Depth ===
====UIC Forum, Room F, 1:30 pm to 5:30 pm on Monday, February 11====
* Contact: Erik Hatcher (erik.hatcher at lucidworks.com)

The long awaited and much anticipated Solr 4 has been released! It's a really big deal. There are so many improvements, it makes the head spin. This session will cover the major feature improvements from Lucene's flexible indexing and scoring API up through SolrCloud in a digestable half-day format. Sounds like this is an evening thing that might happen at a bar somewhere?

Crowdsourced Video QA

2016-05-27T19:40:58Z

Anarchivist:

I've noticed that a number of you all have been watching the rough archived videos in the livestream channel: http://www.livestream.com/code4lib

I'm hoping to use these as a foundation for the "official" archives, but I know there are various gaps, glitches, drops and problems.

As a result, I'd like to crowdsource help with identifying segments that work and segments that don't. For the bad bits, I have a lot of secondary footage on DV tapes, and I'll be working with UW to pull that to file & see what gaps I can fill.

Since I don't necessarily want to watch all 3 days multiple times, I thought I'd ask the community to help me find the problems.

If you've already re-watched a segment in the archives, or looked for something that wasn't there, please add info below. Or email me: corey dot harper at nyu. Or twitter at me: chrpr. Or call, fax, carrier pigeon, fedex, smoke signal, morse code, mime, interpretive dance... Yeah, probably easiest to just add the info here or contact me on the internet.

The schedule's below.

Thanks!
