2012 Lightning Talks Signup

2012-01-25T12:19:04Z

Joelrichard:

'''Sign up for Lightning Talks!!'''

Lightning talks are scheduled on all three days of the conference. A lightning talk is a fast-paced 5 minute talk on a topic of your choosing.

Mark Jason Dominus has a nice page [http://perl.plover.com/lt/lightning-talks.html about lightning talks], which includes this summary of why you might want to do one:

''Maybe you've never given a talk before, and you'd like to start small. For a Lightning Talk, you don't need to make slides, and if you do decide to make slides, you only need to make three.''

''Maybe you're nervous and you're afraid you'll mess up. It's a lot easier to plan and deliver a five minute talk than it is to deliver a long talk. And if you do mess up, at least the painful part will be over quickly.''

''Maybe you don't have much to say. Maybe you just want to ask a question, or invite people to help you with your project, or boast about something you did, or tell a short cautionary story. These things are all interesting and worth talking about, but there might not be enough to say about them to fill up thirty minutes.''

Joelrichard: Undo revision 10388 by Joelrichard (Talk)

'''Sign up for Lightning Talks Now!!'''

Lightning talks are scheduled on all three days of the conference. A lightning talk is a fast-paced 5 minute talk on a topic of your choosing.

Mark Jason Dominus has a nice page [http://perl.plover.com/lt/lightning-talks.html about lightning talks], which includes this summary of why you might want to do one:

''Maybe you've never given a talk before, and you'd like to start small. For a Lightning Talk, you don't need to make slides, and if you do decide to make slides, you only need to make three.

Maybe you're nervous and you're afraid you'll mess up. It's a lot easier to plan and deliver a five minute talk than it is to deliver a long talk. And if you do mess up, at least the painful part will be over quickly.

Maybe you don't have much to say. Maybe you just want to ask a question, or invite people to help you with your project, or boast about something you did, or tell a short cautionary story. These things are all interesting and worth talking about, but there might not be enough to say about them to fill up thirty minutes.''

2012 preconference proposals

2012-01-17T15:22:32Z

Joelrichard: /* Interest in Attending */

=Proposals for 2012 Code4LibCon Preconferences=
Proposals closed Sunday, November 20, 2011, so we can finalize the list and add them to registration! (The deadline for preconference proposals has passed.)

Spaces available: main meeting room (max 275) + 5 breakout rooms (max 30-50).

'''Please include a "Contact/Responsible Individual" name and email address so we know who is willing to put on the proposed precon.
'''
==Full Day==

=== Hacking Content ===

What is the future of getting library information and resources into users’ hands at the right time and with appropriate context and relevancy. Learning management systems, library guides, Web-scale discovery systems-plenty of tools to choose from and still we see lots of opportunities for improvement. Let’s pick them apart and brainstorm ideas for projects that could address weaknesses in one or all of these systems. If you’re interested in these issues, challenges and conundrums join us for a day of thinking, dreaming and scheming. All skill sets and backgrounds needed.

Speakers/Facilitators will be:
- Thom Cox - Manager of Library Information Technology Services - Tufts University
- Ken Varnum – Web Systems Manager - University of Michigan Libraries
- Evviva Weinraub – Director, Emerging Technologies and Services - Oregon State University Libraries

Contact: Margaret Mellinger - margaret dot mellinger at oregonstate dot edu

*Tammy Allgood Wolf

=== 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!

==Half Day Morning==

=== 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!

=== Git -r done ===

A session to cover all things Git, everyone's favorite distributed version control system. This session should cover a little bit of the history of Git, how it works, and how it's different than other version controls systems like SVN. Practical application should also be covered, including how to clone existing repos and contribute code back to them, how to host your own repository, and best practices for setting up a distributed network.

Looking for attendees with real-life Git experience to share it, so we can all broaden our understanding of possible use-cases and nifty advanced features.

=== 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.

=== "Geo" ===
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.

2012 preconference proposals

2012-01-17T15:22:16Z

Joelrichard: /* Interest in Attending */

=Proposals for 2012 Code4LibCon Preconferences=
Proposals closed Sunday, November 20, 2011, so we can finalize the list and add them to registration! (The deadline for preconference proposals has passed.)

Spaces available: main meeting room (max 275) + 5 breakout rooms (max 30-50).

'''Please include a "Contact/Responsible Individual" name and email address so we know who is willing to put on the proposed precon.
'''
==Full Day==

=== Hacking Content ===

What is the future of getting library information and resources into users’ hands at the right time and with appropriate context and relevancy. Learning management systems, library guides, Web-scale discovery systems-plenty of tools to choose from and still we see lots of opportunities for improvement. Let’s pick them apart and brainstorm ideas for projects that could address weaknesses in one or all of these systems. If you’re interested in these issues, challenges and conundrums join us for a day of thinking, dreaming and scheming. All skill sets and backgrounds needed.

Speakers/Facilitators will be:
- Thom Cox - Manager of Library Information Technology Services - Tufts University
- Ken Varnum – Web Systems Manager - University of Michigan Libraries
- Evviva Weinraub – Director, Emerging Technologies and Services - Oregon State University Libraries

=== 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!

==Half Day Morning==

=== 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!

==Half Day Afternoon==

=== Git -r done ===

A session to cover all things Git, everyone's favorite distributed version control system. This session should cover a little bit of the history of Git, how it works, and how it's different than other version controls systems like SVN. Practical application should also be covered, including how to clone existing repos and contribute code back to them, how to host your own repository, and best practices for setting up a distributed network.

Looking for attendees with real-life Git experience to share it, so we can all broaden our understanding of possible use-cases and nifty advanced features.

=== 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.

=== DACS and EAD Overview ===

This session will look at what DACS (Describing Archives: a Content Standard) is and describe the ten required elements. Then there will be an overview of what EAD is, how it works, and the required elements. The final part will be a practice session on taking a paper finding aid and coding it using DACS and EAD.

=== [[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.

=== "Geo" ===
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.

Let’s pick them apart and brainstorm ideas for projects that could address weaknesses in one or all of these systems. If you’re interested in these issues, challenges and conundrums join us for a day of thinking, dreaming and scheming. All skill sets and backgrounds needed.

Speakers/Facilitators will be:
- Thom Cox - Manager of Library Information Technology Services - Tufts University
- Ken Varnum – Web Systems Manager - University of Michigan Libraries
- Evviva Weinraub – Director, Emerging Technologies and Services - Oregon State University Libraries

=== 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!

==Half Day Morning==

=== 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!

=== Git -r done ===

A session to cover all things Git, everyone's favorite distributed version control system. This session should cover a little bit of the history of Git, how it works, and how it's different than other version controls systems like SVN. Practical application should also be covered, including how to clone existing repos and contribute code back to them, how to host your own repository, and best practices for setting up a distributed network.

Looking for attendees with real-life Git experience to share it, so we can all broaden our understanding of possible use-cases and nifty advanced features.

=== 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.

Abstract of no more than 500 words.
</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. ==

* Stephanie Collett, California Digital Library, stephanie.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.

==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.

==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, Amazon.com (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 Insitution 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 dicussion 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.
