Keynote Committee Duties

2018-12-12T22:31:03Z

PeggyGriesinger: /* Timeline */

Details for Code4Lib Conference Keynote Committee members.

==Timeline==

'''Note:''' we need approximate dates for all of these steps.

* Cultivate nominations from Code4Lib community on the wiki
* Contact nominees to confirm their willingness & availability (see '''[[Keynote Committee Duties#Initial_Nominee_Contact|Initial Nominee Contact]]''')
* Ensure all nominees have comparative & sufficient bios
* Add available nominees & their bios to a voting form, schedule the vote to run two weeks
* Announce voting on the listserv (see '''[[Keynote Committee Duties#Open_voting_announcement|Open Voting Announcement]]''')
* Send follow-up notices one week & a three-couple days before voting closes
* Close voting & contact the top two nominees (see '''[[Keynote Committee Duties#Successful_Nomination_Follow-up|Successful Nomination Follow-up]]''')
* If one or both nominees are unable or unwilling to speak, move down the voting list in order
* Once two keynotes have been confirmed
** notify the Conference Planning Committee
** list on the conference website
** notify the speakers who were nominated but ultimately not selected (see '''[[Keynote Committee Duties#Unsuccessful_Nomination_Follow-up|Unsuccessful Nomination Follow-up]]''')
** & notify the community
* Before the conference, write thank you notes to give to the speakers before or after their keynotes

==Keynote Speaker Logistics==

===Before keynotes are selected===

The committee should determine a few things before contacting keynote speakers. Most of these will involve communicating with the main Conference Planning Committee or the host institution.

* '''conference registration''' - historically, there's been a special registration code for keynote speakers that allows them to register without charge. Obtain this code from the Conference Planning Committee.
* '''hotel logistics''' - confirm that a room has been reserved for the keynote speakers or, if not, ensure that speakers will have a chance to purchase rooms ''before hotel information is released to the general public'' since the hotel block often fills quickly
* '''about reimbursement policies and procedures''' - what expenses are reimburseable (in particular policies vary on alcohol)? Do they get reimbursements or a per diem for conference expenses? What paperwork do they need to submit and to whom? If floating all these expenses presents a hardship, is there a way to have someone else handle them up front?
* '''contracts & taxes''' - does the host institution have a standard speaking contract which must be used? do they require that the speaker send a W9 form and if so to whom is it sent?

===When they agree to speak or shortly after===

Keynote speakers need to know:

* '''all reimbursement policies''' - everything that was learned above, basically. Keynotes might purchase their own hotel and travel arrangements and later be reimbursed. If so, they must be informed of any restrictions or preferred carriers, regional airports, travel classes (e.g. business, first, coach), etc…
* '''that their talk will be livestreamed''' - this is not obvious to non-code4libbers
* '''the length of their talk & any limitations/restrictions''' - talks have traditionally been 40 minutes with 5 reserved for questions

Speakers may provide their own speaking contract and/or host institutions may have a standard. If the host's standard contract has non-OA-friendly terms on intellectual property, be prepared to help the speaker negotiate those as many code4libby speakers will care. A W9 may be required.

===A few weeks before the event===

Keynoter Speakers will need information on:

* travel between the venue and the airport (particularly if the committee will be providing this travel, i.e. will anyone be meeting you at the airport and if so where)
* A/V setup (what computer is at the podium, can they plug their own in, what dongles will they need, do you provide dongles, is there wifi/podium internet, are there speakers if they want to play video - many venues have PCs and do not provide Mac dongles; speakers may have their own but committee would be well-advised to bring some)
* event hashtag and other social media (remember non-code4lib speakers are probably unfamiliar with the IRC channel, @code4lib, etc.)
* is there anywhere it might be good for them to upload their slides
* who will be introducing them and what information that person needs

Many speakers will appreciate receiving their check at the event, but will not be surprised to get it in the mail later. If you'll be sending it after, provide a time frame, and don't make them have to send follow-up emails to get it.

==Email Templates==

These are provided merely as convenient suggestions and need not be followed exactly. Still, the general content should be the same. We would be remiss to neglect mentioning the Code of Conduct, for instance.

Sections in Mustache-style double curly braces should be replaced with the appropriate information. '''Don't forget to replace them!''' You'd feel silly sending someone a template.

===Initial Nominee Contact===

Dear <nowiki>{{nominee name}}</nowiki>,

On behalf of the Code4Lib <nowiki>{{year}}</nowiki> Conference Committee, I want to inform you that you were nominated as a possible keynote for the conference, which will be held in <nowiki>{{location}}</nowiki> on <nowiki>{{dates}}</nowiki>. You were nominated by a member of the Code4Lib community for doing awesome work. We have a transparent planning process in which keynote speakers are selected by community vote. No commitment is necessary at this point, but we'd like to know if you would consider such an invitation should your nomination be selected. If you are unable or unavailable to speak, we would like to know so that we can ensure a fair and transparent vote.

Code4Lib isn't solely about code or libraries. It's a volunteer-driven collective of hackers, designers, architects, curators, catalogers, artists, and instigators from around the world, who largely work for and with libraries, archives, and museums on technology. We are dedicated to providing a harassment-free community for everyone. For more information, please see our Code of Conduct at https://github.com/code4lib/antiharassment-policy/blob/master/code_of_conduct.md.

You can learn more about our community and our annual conference at http://code4lib.org or by viewing our prospectus at http://wiki.code4lib.org/images/4/42/Code4LibProspectus.pdf.

Thank you for your consideration,

<nowiki>{{your name}}</nowiki>

on behalf of the Code4Lib Keynote Speakers Committee

===Successful Nomination Follow-up===

'''Important''': verify the honorarium sum with the Conference Committee before sending this email.

Hello <nowiki>{{name}},</nowiki>

We have finished the Code4Lib <nowiki>{{year}}</nowiki> invited speaker vote and I am excited to let you know that your nomination was selected! I'm sure that what you have to say will benefit the community, and clearly the rest of the community agrees. I hope you consider accepting our invitation.

The conference is able to cover your expenses, including airfare, lodging at the conference hotel, and meals. Additionally, we would like to offer you a <nowiki>{{monetary sum}}</nowiki> honorarium as a token of our gratitude. We know that preparing for a keynote presentation is a lot of work and we would be deeply grateful if you are able to add your perspective to our community.

Code4Lib <nowiki>{{year}}</nowiki> will take place from <nowiki>{{date range}}</nowiki> in <nowiki>{{location}}</nowiki>. We are scheduling two invited talks, and we would like to open our first full (<nowiki>{{date}}</nowiki>) and last (<nowiki>{{date}}</nowiki>) days with one apiece. If you are available, please let me know if either or both of those days could work. Of course, you are welcome to attend as much of our event as you would like.

Please don't hesitate to ask any questions at all. Thank you so much for considering our invitation. I hope you are able to accept.

Sincerely,

<nowiki>{{your name}}</nowiki>

on behalf of the Code4Lib Keynote Speakers Committee

===Unsuccessful Nomination Follow-up===

Hello <nowiki>{{name}},</nowiki>

Thank you so much for your willingness to participate in this year's Code4Lib keynote speaker selection process. We had an extremely competitive slate this year, and the community vote resulted in the selection of other speakers. We were very excited to have been able to include you and sincerely hope that you will be willing to be considered again next year.

Sincerely,

<nowiki>{{your name}}</nowiki>

on behalf of the Code4Lib Keynote Speakers Committee

===Open voting announcement===

The Code4Lib <nowiki>{{year}}</nowiki> Keynote Speakers Committee is happy to open this year's invited speaker election.

All nominees have been contacted and the <nowiki>{{number of nominees}}</nowiki> included in this election are all potentially available to speak. The top two available vote recipients will be invited to be our keynote speakers this year. Voting will end in two weeks on <nowiki>{{date}}</nowiki>.

When rating nominees, please consider whether they are likely to be an excellent contributor in each the following areas:

1) *''Appropriateness''*. Is this speaker likely to convey information that is useful to many members of our community?

2) *''Uniqueness''*. Is this speaker likely to cover themes that may not commonly appear in the rest of the program?

3) *''Contribution to diversity''*. Will this person bring something rare, notable, or unique to our community, through unusual experience or background?

Shane studies the history of computing and the impact of digital technology on culture and politics. His dissertation, “Kingdom of Code: Cryptography and the New Privacy” tracks the development of civilian encryption technology and the emergence of cryptography as an academic field of study, the debates over crypto regulation, and the concomitant construction of a new, far more expansive notion of privacy from 1975 to 2000. His perspectives on technology, encryption, and privacy would be especially interesting to a wide audience.

==Jessica Marie Johnson==
Jessica Marie Johnson is an assistant professor of history at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore. Her work is focused around radical black feminist praxis in the digital humanities. One of her more recent projects is titled "The Codex," a triptych that also functions as an exploration of the Atlantic slave trade by using code and software applications.

= Code4Lib 2018 Conference Committees =

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.

=== Craft Brew Drinkup, Tuesday February 10th ===

When: Tuesday, February 10th - 7pm - 10pm (ish)

Where: eBay Offices - 1400 SW 5th Ave, Portland, OR 97201

The Craft Brew Drinkup at Code4lib 2015 is all about sharing and enjoying good beer with fellow conference attendees. The idea is to bring bottles of your favorite beers or non-alcoholic drinks.

While you're not obligated to bring local brews from wherever you're from, participants are definitely encouraged to bring brews that you think is special and might be somewhat hard for others outside your area to find. Homebrew is especially welcome as are non-alcoholic beverages. Hot water will be provided for those who want to bring tea blends.

This year, eBay has agreed to host the Code4Lib Drinkup at their offices in downtown Portland, a 6 block walk from the conference hotel. Attendees should expect to bring something to share, either drinks or snacks. Cups will be provided by the host.

'''Please Note''': The space must be cleaned up and all folks gone no later than 11pm.

'''[https://www.eventbrite.com/e/code4lib-2015-tickets-14504558525 Space is limited to the first 200 people who register for the event!]'''

Please sign up on the [[2015 Craft Drinkup|Craft Drinkup wiki page]] to share the brews and bottles you're thinking of bringing along and special requests can be made, but don't expect that your wishes will be granted.

* [http://www.foodcartsportland.com/maps/ Portland Food Carts] - Several in Pioneer Courthouse Square (2 blocks away from conference) and a huge pod off SW 10th & Alder. "Pods" are locations with multiple food carts and a good choice for a large group with different dietary needs, preferences, and budgets. Most meals are under $10. [https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?msa=0&mid=zBwrQkvFyvi8.k7T1OA_J6anE Pod Map].

 4:30pm - 5pm -- Return to smaller groups, make suggested edits, finalize documentation

== Summary & Background==
The PBCore RDF Ontology Hackathon is occurring out of a growing need for PBCore users to express their metadata in RDF. A number of PBCore users contribute to and are part of the [http://projecthydra.org/ Project Hydra] community, a collaborative, open source effort to build digital repository software solutions at archives institutions. Hydra is built on a framework that uses Fedora Commons as the repository for storing metadata. Many users are seeking to update their Fedora repositories to the latest version (Fedora 4), which provides a great opportunity to develop an RDF data structure. If PBCore had an RDF ontology, it would be easier for PBCore users to take full advantage of Fedora 4 capabilities in managing data and encourage adoption of Fedora 4.

 [http://www.pbcore.org PBCore] is a metadata schema for audiovisual materials. Its original development in 2004 was funded by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, with a goal of creating a metadata standard for public broadcasters to share information about their video and audio assets within and among public media stations. Since its conception, PBCore has been adopted by a growing number of audiovisual archives and organizations that needed a way to describe their archival audiovisual collections. The schema has been reviewed multiple times and is currently in further development via the [http://www.americanarchive.org American Archive of Public Broadcasting] and the [http://amianet.org/ Association of Moving Image Archivists (AMIA)] PBCore Advisory Subcommittee.

 The Schema Team is working on an updated version of PBCore (PBCore 2.1), the changes of which will consist of minor tweaks and bug fixes, and is expected to be released in March 2015. Other Teams on the Subcommittee are working on PBCore outreach, education, documentation, and a new website.

== Working Groups ==
Participants should sign up for a working group. On the days of the event, these sections will be filled with suggestions and links to documentation created by the working groups.

=== Intellectual Content Working Group ===
This group will focus on the intellectual content part of the knowledge base. Intellectual content in PBCore XML is currently expressed through elements like pbcoreTitle, pbcoreAssetType, pbcoreAssetDate, pbcoreSubject, pbcoreDescription, pbcoreGenre, pbcoreRelation, pbcoreCoverage, pbcoreAudienceLevel, pbbcoreAudienceRating, pbcoreAnnotation, etc.

==== Participants ====
Casey E. Davis, WGBH, [https://twitter.com/CaseyEDavis1 @caseyedavis1]

=== Intellectual Property Working Group ===
This group will focus on the intellectual property part of the knowledge base. Intellectual property in PBCore XML is currently expressed through elements like pbcoreCreator, pbcoreContributor, pbcorePublisher, pbcoreRightsSummary, and roles.

==== Participants ====
Name, Institution, Twitter handle/email address

=== Instantiation Working Group ===
This group will focus on the instantiation part of the knowledge base, excluding essence tracks.

==== Participants ====
Peggy Griesinger, MoMA/NDSR, [https://twitter.com/peggygriesinger @peggygriesinger]

=== Essence Track Working Group ===
This group will focus on the essence track part of the knowledge base.

==== Participants ====

Abstract:

What does it mean to Code for Archives? Is it different than coding for libraries, and if so, how?

Code4Lib is a wonderful and successful model (you must agree or you wouldn't be reading this). This workshop is an attempt to create a space to replicate the model in an Archival context. A space to talk about development for archives, and the particular challenges of developing archival systems. Topics to discuss include Integration between different Archival software tools, and between Archival tools/workflows and larger institutional tools like institutional repositories, discovery and access systems.

The schedule may include the following:

* Panel type conversations about the State of Art in Archives
* Case Studies - discussion of workflows at specific institutions, including gaps in tools and how those are being addressed or could be addressed
* Tool Demos - access to demos of some of the open source tools used in an Archival Context (examples include ArchivesSpace, Archivematica, BitCurator, AtoM)

Artefactual will provide demos running Archivematica and AtoM, we encourage others to chime in here to expand the list of tools available to touch and play with.

When signing up, please indicate if you are an end-user or a developer.

=== Fail4Lib 2015 ===
'''Half Day [TBD, probably afternoon]'''

* Andreas Orphanides, akorphan (at) ncsu.edu
* Jason Casden, jmcasden (at) ncsu.edu

Abstract:

Failure. Failure never changes. Since failure is an inescapable part of our professional work, it's important to be familiar with it, to acknowledge it, and to grow from it -- and, in contravention to longstanding tradition, to accept it as a fact of development life. At Fail4Lib, we'll talk about our own experiences with projects gone wrong, explore some famous design failures in the real world, and talk about how we can come to terms with the reality of failure, to make it part of our creative process -- rather than something to be shunned. Let's train ourselves to understand and embrace failure, encourage enlightened risk-taking, and seek out opportunities to fail and learn. This way, when we do what we do -- and fail at what we do -- we'll do so with grace and without fear.

This year's preconference will include new case studies and an improved discussion format. Repeat customers are welcome! (Fail early, fail often.)

The schedule may include the following:

* Case studies. Avoid our own mistakes by bearing witness to the failures of others.
* Confessionals, for those willing to share. Let's learn from our own (and each others') failures.
* Group therapy. Vent about your own experiences in a judgment-free setting. Explore how we can make our organizations less risk-averse and more failure-tolerant.

=== Confessions of the (Accidental) Code Hoarder: How to make your Code Sharable: ===

'''Half Day [Whenever]'''

* Karen A. Coombs, OCLC, coombsk@oclc.org

Abstract
Have you built something cool and useful that you want to share with others? This preconference session will discuss techniques and tools for sharing code. Using our own OCLC Developer Network PHP authentication code libraries as an example, we will discuss a set of recommended best practices for how to share your code.

We’ll start with coding standards and test writing so you can be confident of the quality of your code. Next we'll discuss inline documentation as a tool for developers and how auto-generating documentation will save you time and effort. Lastly we'll provide an overview of the tricky areas of dependency and package management, and distribution tools. Along the way, we'll cover PHP coding standards, testing, and popular PHP tools including PHPDoc for documentation, Composer for smooth installations, and using GitHub and Packagist to manage distribution, updates and community feedback.

=== UXtravaganza ===
'''"Half or Full Day [Based on Interest?, Morning/Afternoon Doesn’t Matter]"'''

* William Hicks, University of North Texas, William.hicks@unt.edu
* Volunteers?

Abstract

I’m envisioning a 1/2 of full day for front-end developers, content strategy people, and other misfits with an interest in user experience, where we can talk about our shared problems, use cases, the state of current research, and play with each other’s sites. A half day seems doable, but if there’s significant enough interest we could push for a full? Here are a few of the things I think might be interesting to see happen:

* '''Analytics Share-fest:''' A few volunteers demonstrate data about their websites, catalogs, archival/digital collections. Most of us know our own sites but it would be interesting/validating to share this data with others so we can start to see commonalities between institutions, in certain kinds of systems, etc. For anyone using event tracking, or using click- or heat-maps, this would be a great opportunity to show off what people are seeing.

* '''UX Best Practices Catch Up:''' This spring I had the opportunity to attend a few days worth of usability workshops from the Nielsen-Norman Group, most of which was focused on mobile. I could distill down a lot of the information into an short presentation. Since this is a constantly moving area of research it would be nice to see a few people do other similar short presentations on some current trends/findings relevant to libraries, search, etc.

* '''Mobile Dev Lab:''' The UNT Libraries has been collecting a small set of smartphones and tablets for testing and development. Basically an [http://labup.org Open Device Lab]. We have about a dozen devices now of varying sizes, OS, OS Versions, + Google Glass. I’ll bring the devices, you can bring yours, and assuming we can get the wifi up and running we can test our sites/services with our big sausage fingers rather than pretending to do so through emulators and the one or two devices we each usually have on hand. If anyone is game they can do a tutorial on Browser-based Inspector Tools, Browser-Cams, or other testing services.

* '''The Eye’s Have It.''' The UNT Libraries is also in the process of acquiring an eye tracker and software for usability and other gaze-based research studies. We’ll take possession of it shortly after this pre-conference proposal is due and will have a couple of months to play with them before the conference. Assuming we can get our act together learning the device and can get past the technical hurdles of setting it up at the pre-conference, we could try to do some live demos on each other’s sites; i.e. You nominate a site/service, someone in the audience volunteers to wear the device, and we all watch them struggle do the tasks you request on a projector. Rinse. Lather. Repeat. It would hardly be scientific, but it sure would be fun. As a backup, if we have some sites nominated beforehand, I can run a few students at my library through some tasks here and we can show off the results to the crowd.

For those of you wanting to attend and help out, I’d really like to see some discussion on typography, writing for the web, “dealing with business/administrative requirements from on-high", maybe do some prototyping exercises, etc. Similarly if anyone is interested in doing some tutorials on bootstrap or how-to’s on running a usability test, that would be rad. But we need you to step up and steer part of the time for most of this to work, so if you are interested in some aspect, and especially if you want to volunteer to lead a bit of the time, contact me.

==Refinery — An open source locally deployable web platform for the analysis of large document collections==

* [[User:DaeilKim|Daeil Kim]], The New York Times, daeil.kim@nytimes.com

Refinery is an open source web platform for the analysis of large unstructured document collections. It extracts meaningful semantic themes within documents also known as "topics" which can be thought of as word clouds composed of terms that highly co-occur with one another. Once this semantic index is formed, one can extract relevant documents related to these topics and further refine their contents through a summarization process that allows users to search for phrases that are relevant to them within the corpus. The goal of Refinery is to make this whole process easier and to provide some of the latest scalable versions of these learning algorithms in an intuitive web-based interface. Refinery is also meant to be run locally, thus bypassing the need for securing document collections over the internet. The talk will go through some of the technologies involved and a demo of the app.

==Drupal 8 — Evolution & Revolution==

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

Drupal 8 is in beta and nearing release. Among its many features, it notably has become more developer friendly through its adoption of the Symfony PHP framework along with Symfony's outstanding set of libraries (like Guzzle) and tools (like Composer). And, in implementing the Twig theming system, it is can begin to escape PHPtemplate. These moves also make it easier to create headless systems that uses Angular.js and other systems for presentation, or even forgo presentation entirely.

From the site-builder's perspective, Drupal 8 provides a much smother experience and makes it easier to build and implement site recipes.

==Using GameSalad to Build a Gamified Information Literacy Mobile App for Higher Education==

* [[User:StanBogdanov|Stanislav 'Stan' Bogdanov]], stan@stanrb.com, Adelphi University and [http://bogliollc.com Boglio LLC]

GameSalad is a popular tool for developing mobile and desktop games with little actual programming. In this presentation, Stan Bogdanov breaks down the development process he followed while building [https://github.com/stanrb/mobiLit mobiLit], a mobile app with the goal of being the first open-source gamified information literacy app to be used as part of a college-level information literacy curriculum. He will go through the basics of using GameSalad to create an app that can be easily customized by non-programmers and the instructional principles used to teach the material in a mobile medium. Stan will also go through two qualitative design studies he did on the app and discuss their results and the lessons learned from building mobiLit. The session will conclude with an overview of the next steps for the [https://github.com/stanrb/mobiLit mobiLit project].

==The Impossible Search: Pulling data form unknown sources==

* Riley Childs, no official affiliation (currently a Senior in High School at Charlotte United Christian Academy), rchilds (AT) cucawarriors.com

It's easy to search data you know the structure of, but what if you need to pull in data from sources that don't have a standard structure. The ability to search community events along with your standard catalog search results is an example, but often the only way to pull these events is through XML, JSON, (Insert structured format here), or even just raw html. But how do you get that structure? That simple question is what makes this impossible. The process to define and process this structure takes a lot of manual labor, especially if the data you are pulling is just HTML, and then every time you add data to the index you have to run all the data through a script to pull in data in a format Solr or an other index can use. This talk will focus on Solr, but the principles explained will apply to many other indexes.

==What! You're Not Using Docker?==

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

Boring part: Docker[1] is a container system that provides benefits similar to virtualization with only a fraction of the overhead. Scintillating part: Docker can host between four to six times the number of service instances than systems such as Xen or VMWare on a given piece of hardware. But thats not all! Docker also makes it simple(r) to create transportable instances, so you can spin up development servers on your laptop.

== Video Accessibility, WebVTT, and Timed Text Track Tricks ==

* Jason Ronallo, jronallo@gmail.com, NCSU Libraries

Video on the Web presents new challenges and opportunities. How do you make your video more accessible to those with various disabilities and needs? I'll show you how. This presentation will focus on how to write and deliver captions, subtitles, audio descriptions, and timed metadata tracks for Web video using the WebVTT W3C standard. Encoding timed text tracks in this way opens up opportunities for new functionality on your websites beyond accessibility. The presentation will show some examples of the potential for using timed text tracks in creative ways. I'll cover all the HTML and JavaScript you will need to know as well as some of the CSS and other bits you could probably do without but are too fun to pass up.

== Categorizing Records with Random Forests ==

* Geoffrey Boushey, geoffrey.boushey@ucsf.edu, UCSF Library
Academic libraries are increasingly responsible for providing ingest, search, discovery, and analysis for data sets. Emerging techniques from data science and machine learning can provide librarians and developers with an opportunity to generate new insights and services from these document collections. This presentation will provide a brief overview of common machine learning classification techniques, then dive into a more detailed example using a random forest to assign keywords to research data sets. The talk will emphasize the insight that can be gained from machine learning rather than the inner workings of the algorithms. The overall goal of this presentation is to provide librarians and developers with the context to recognize an opportunity to apply machine learning categorization techniques at their home campuses and organizations.

== Data Science in Libraries ==

* Devon Smith, smithde@oclc.org, OCLC

Data Science is increasing in buzz and hype. I'll go over what it is, what it isn't, and how it fits in libraries.

== PDF metadata extraction for academic literature ==

* Kevin Savage, kevin.savage at mendeley.com, Mendeley
* Joyce Stack, joyce.stack at mendeley.com, Mendeley

Mendeley recently added a, "document from file," endpoint to its API which attempts to extract metadata such as title and authors directly from PDF files. This talk will describe at a high level the machine learning methods we used including how we measured and tuned our model. We will then delve more deeply into our stack, the tools we used, some of the things that didn't work and why PDFs are the worst thing ever to compute over.

== Giving Users What They Want: Record Grouping in VuFind ==

* Mark Noble, mark@marmot.org, [//www.marmot.org Marmot Library Network]

In 2013, Marmot did extensive usability studies with patrons to determine what was difficult in the catalog. Many patrons had problems sifting through all of the various formats and editions of a title. In 2014 we developed a method for [//mercury.marmot.org/Union/Search?lookfor=divergent grouping records] so only a single work is shown in search results and all formats and editions are listed under that work. We will discuss our definition of a 'work' based on FRBR principles; combining meta data from MARC records with metadata from other sources like OverDrive; the technical details of Record Grouping; the design decisions made during implementation; and the reaction from users and staff.

== Topic Space: a mobile augmented reality recommendation app ==

* Jim Hahn, jimhahn@illinois.edu, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

The Topic Space module (http://minrvaproject.org/modules_topicspace.php ) was developed with an IMLS Sparks! Grant to investigate augmented reality technologies for in-library recommendations. The funding allowed for sustained university community collaboration by the University Library, the Graduate School of Library and Information Science, as well as graduate student programmers sourced from the Department of Computer Science. Collaborators designed app functionality and identified relevant open source libraries that could power optical character recognition (OCR) functionality from within the mobile phone.

Topic space allows a user to take a picture of an item's call number in the book stacks. The module will show the user other books that are relevant but that are not shelved nearby. It can also show users books that are normally shelved here but that are currently checked out. Recommendations are based on Library of Congress subject headings and ILS circulation data which indicate recommendation candidates based on total check-outs.

Research questions included development of back end (server-side) pattern matching algorithms for recommendations, and a rapid formative evaluation of interface design that would provide optimal user experience for navigation of the book stacks as a context to recommendations.

Along with the Topic Space native app, grant collaborators prototyped web based recommendations which could serve as a new way of providing readers advisory and “more like this” recommendations from discovery interfaces accessed through desktop browsers. Outcomes of the grant include the availability of the [https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=edu.illinois.ugl.minrva Topic Spaces module within Minrva app on the Android Play store] and an experimental [http://backbonejs.org/ Backbone.js] based [http://minrva-dev.library.illinois.edu Topic Space web app].

== Leveling Up Your Git Workflow ==

* Megan Kudzia, moneill@albion.edu, Albion College Library
* Kate Sears, eks11@albion.edu, Albion College Library

Have you started experimenting with Git on your own, but now you need to include others in your projects? Learn from our mistakes! Transitioning from a one-person git workflow and repo structure, to a structure that includes multiple people (including student workers), is not for the faint of heart. We'll talk about why we decided to work this way, our path to developing a git culture amongst ourselves, conceptual and technical difficulties we've faced, what we learned, and where we are now. Also with pretty pictures (aka workflow drawings).

== Drone Loaning Program: Because Laptops are so last century ==

* Uche Enwesi, uenwesi@umd.edu, University of Maryland Libraries
* Francis Kayiwa, fkayiwa@umd.edu, University of Maryland Libraries

At Univ. Maryland we are in the very early stages of looking into allowing our student body get their hands on a drone. Yes that's right we will let students take out a drone for n amount of hours to work on projects of their choosing. The talk will talk about the logistics of getting a program of this sort from concept to "Is the drone available?". If people sign waivers we will also promise not to crash the drone into code4lib attendees.

== Got Git? Getting More Out of Your GitHub Repositories ==

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

This presentation will discuss how librarians, developers, and system administrators at Georgetown University are maximizing their use of the public and private GitHub repositories.

In additional to all of the great benefits of using Git for code management, the GitHub interface provides a powerful set of tools to showcase a project and to keep your users informed of developments to your project. These tools can assist with marketing and outreach - turning your code repository into a focus of conversation!

==The Geospatial World is Moving from Maps *on* the Web to Maps *of* the web. Libraries can too==

* [[User:Copystar|Mita Williams]], mita@uwindsor.ca, User Experience Librarian, University of Windsor

The transition from paper maps to digital ones changed much more than the maps themselves; it changed the very foundation of how we work and how we find each other. Now maps are transforming again. The Geospatial World is moving from GIS systems that are institutionally-focused, expensive, feature-burdened, and binds data into a complicated and demanding user-hostile interface. From this transition from digital to web-based digital geospatial tools has come growth and development in new forms of map-based investigative journalism, activism, scholarship, and business ventures. This talk will highlight the conditions and strategies that made these changes possible as a means to draw a path by which librarians through our own work may follow, dragons notwithstanding.

== Building Your Own Federated Search ==

* Rich Trott, Richard.Trott@ucsf.edu, UC San Francisco

Advances in modern browsers have created some interesting possibilities for federated search. This presentation will cover common techniques and pitfalls in building a federated search. We will discuss what principles guided our decisions when implementing our own federated search. We will show tools we've built and our findings from building and using experimental prototypes.

Your higher education institution likely offers dozens of online resources for educators, students, researchers, and the public. And each of these online resources likely has its own search tool. But users can't be expected to search in dozens of different interfaces to find what they're looking for. A typical solution for this issue is federated search.

== Indexing Linked Data with LDPath ==

* Chris Beer, cabeer@stanford.edu, Stanford University Libraries

LDPath [1] is a simple query language for indexing linked open data, with support for caching, content negotiation, and integration with non-RDF endpoints. This talk will demonstrate the features and potential of the language and framework to index a resource with links into id.loc.gov, viaf.org, geonames.org, etc to build an application-ready document.

== Show Me the Money: Integrating an LMS with Payment Providers ==

* Josh Weisman, Josh.Weisman@exlibrisgroup.com, Development Director-Resources Management, Ex Libris Group

In order to provide an easy and convenient way for patrons to pay fines, we are exploring ways to integrate the library management system with online payment providers such as PayPal. With many LMS systems being designed and developed for the cloud, we should be able to provide the frictionless user experience our patrons have come to expect from online transactions. In this session we'll discuss strategies for integration and review a sample application which uses REST APIs from a library management system to integrate with PayPal.

== Shibboleth Federated Authentication for Library Applications: ==

* Scott Fisher, scott.fisher@ucop.edu, California Digital Library
* Ken Weiss, ken.weiss@ucop.edu, California Digital Library

Shibboleth is the most widely-used method to provide single-sign-on authentication to academic applications where users come from many different institutions. Shibboleth, the InCommon education and research trust framework, and the SAML protocol comprise a very powerful - but very complicated - solution to this very complicated problem. Scott and Ken have implemented Shibboleth for multiple library applications. They will share their understanding of the good, the bad, and the underlying spaghetti that makes it all work. Ken will discuss some of the technical aspects of the solution, touching on optimal and non-optimal use cases, administrative challenges, and authorization concerns. Scott will describe the implementation pattern for multi-institution single-sign-on that the California Digital Library has evolved, using the recently released Dash application (http://dash.cdlib.org) as an example.

==Scientific Data: A Needs Assessment Journey==

*[[User:VickySteeves| Vicky Steeves]], vsteeves@amnh.org, American Museum of Natural History

While surveying digital research and collections data in the research science divisions at the American Museum of Natural History in NYC (as a part of my [http://ndsr.nycdigital.org/ National Digital Stewardship Residency] project), I have come across the big data hogs (genome sequencing and CT scanning) and the little pieces of data (images, publications), all equally important to not only scientific discovery, but as nodes in the history of science.

In this session, I will discuss the development of my needs assessment surveys for scientific datasets and the interview process with Museum curators and researchers as background, seguing into an explanation of the results. I will then combine my findings into preliminary selection criteria to choose tools for digital preservation and management unique to scientific datasets. This will brooke a discussion on emerging standards, tools, and technologies in big data, specific to research science.

I will conclude with preliminary findings on emerging technology that can be used to answer concerns surrounding the management and digital preservation of these data. I am hoping the Q&A session can be used to both answer questions about my project, and function as a way for you (the larger tech-savy library community) to discuss the tools I’ve touched on in this talk.

== Feminist Human Computer Interaction (HCI) in Library Software ==

* Bess Sadler, bess@stanford.edu, Stanford University Libraries

Libraries are not neutral repositories of knowledge. Library classification systems and search technologies tend to reflect the inequalities, biases, ethnocentrism, and power imbalances of the societies in which they are built [1]. How might we better resist these tendencies in the library software we create? This talk will examine some qualities of feminist HCI (pluralism, self-disclosure, participation, ecology, advocacy, and embodiment) [2] through the lens of library software.

== Heiðrún: DPLA's Metadata Harvesting, Mapping and Enhancement System ==

* Audrey Altman, audrey at dp.la, Digital Public Library of America
* Gretchen Gueguen, gretchen at dp.la, Digital Public Library of America
* Mark Breedlove, mark at dp.la, Digital Public Library of America

The Digital Public Library of America aggregates metadata for over 8 million objects from more than 24 direct partners, or Hubs, using its Metadata Application Profile (MAP), an RDF metadata application profile based on the Europeana Data Model. After working with the initial system for harvesting, mapping and enhancing our Hub’s metadata for a year, we realized that it was inadequate for working with data at this scale. There were architectural issues; it was opaque to non-developer and partner staff; there were inadequate tools for quality assurance and analysis; and the system was unaware that it was working with RDF data. As the network of Hubs expanded and we ingested more metadata, it became harder and harder to know when or why a harvest, a mapping task, or an enrichment went wrong because the tools for quality assurancewere largely inadequate.

The DPLA Content and Technology teams decided to develop a new system from the ground up to address those problems. Development of Heidrun, the internal version of the new system, started in October 2014. Heidrun’s goals are to make it easier for us to harvest and map metadata from various sources and in variety of schemas to the DPLA MAP, to better enrich that metadata using external data sources, and to actively involve our partners in the ingestion process through access to better QA tools. Heidrun and its componentry are built on Ruby on Rails, Blacklight, and ActiveTriples. Our presentation will give some background on our design principles and processes used during development, the architecture of the system, and its functionality. We plan to release a version of Heidrun and its components as a generalized metadata aggregation system for use by DPLA Hubs and others working to aggregate cultural heritage metadata.

== OS or GTFO: Program or Perish ==
*Tessa Fallon, tessa.fallon@gmail.com

Description TBD

== Creating Dynamic— and Cheap!— Digital Displays with HTML 5 Authoring Software ==
* Chris Woodall, cmwoodall@salisbury.edu, Salisbury University Libraries
Would your library like to have large digital signage that displays dynamic information such as library hours, weather, room availability, and more? Have you looked into purchasing large digital signage, only to be turned off by the high price tag and lack of customization available with commercial solutions? Our library has developed a cheap and effective alternative to these systems using HTML 5 authoring software, a large TV, and freely-available APIs from Google, Springshare, and others. At this session, you’ll learn about the system that we have in place for displaying dynamic and easily-updatable information on our library’s large digital display, and how you can easily create something similar for your library.

== REPOX: Metadata Blender ==

* John Mignault, jmignault@metro.org, Empire State Digital Network

With the growth in the number of hubs providing metadata to the Digital Public Library of America, many of them are using REPOX, a tool originally created for the Europeana project. We'll take a look at REPOX and its capabilities and how it can be useful for ingesting and transforming metadata.

== Beyond Open Source ==

* Jason Casden, jmcasden@ncsu.edu, NCSU Libraries
* Bret Davidson, bddavids@ncsu.edu, NCSU Libraries

The Code4Lib community has produced an increasingly impressive collection of open source software over the last decade, but much of this creative work remains out of reach for large portions of the library community. Do the relatively privileged institutions represented by a majority of Code4Lib participants have a professional responsibility to support the adoption of their innovations?

Drawing from old and new software packaging and distribution approaches (from freeware to Docker), we will propose extending the open source software values of collaboration and transparency to include the wide and affordable distribution of software. We believe this will not only simplify the process of sharing our applications within the Code4Lib community, but also make it possible for less well resourced institutions to actually use our software. We will identify areas of need, present our experiences with the users of our own open source projects, discuss our attempts to go beyond open source, and make an argument for the internal value of supporting and encouraging a vibrant library ecosystem.

== Making It Work: Problem Solving Using Open Source at a Small Academic Library ==

* Adam Strohm, astrohm@iit.edu, Illinois Institute of Technology
* Max King, mking9@iit.edu, Illinois Institute of Technology

The Illinois Institute of Technology campus was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2005, and contains a building, Mies van der Rohe's S.R. Crown Hall, that was named a National Historic Landmark in 2001. Creating a digital resource that can adequately showcase the campus and its architecture is challenge enough in and of itself, but doing so as a two-person team of relative newcomers, at a university library without dedicated programmers on staff, ups the ante considerably.
The challenges of technical know-how, staff time, and funding are nothing new to anyone working on digital projects at a university library, and are amplified when doing so at a smaller institution. This talk covers the conception, development, and design of the campus map site that was built, concentrating on the problem-solving strategies developed to cope with limited technical and financial resources.
We'll talk about our approach to development with Open Source software, including Omeka, along with the Neatline and Simile Timeline plugins. We'll also discuss the juggling act of designing for mobile mapping functionality without sacrificing desktop design, weighing the costs of increased functionality versus our ability to time-effectively include that functionality, and the challenge of building a site that could be developed iteratively, with an eye towards future enhancement and sustainability. Finally, we’ll provide recommendations for other librarians at smaller institutions for their own efforts at digital development.

== Recording Digitization History: Metadata Options for the Process History of Audiovisual Materials ==

* Peggy Griesinger, peggy_griesinger@moma.org, Museum of Modern Art

The Museum of Modern Art has amassed a large collection of audiovisual materials over its many decades of existence. In order to preserve these materials, much of the audiovisual collection has been digitized. This is a complex process involving numerous steps and devices, and the methods used for digitization can have an effect on the quality of the file that is preserved. Therefore, knowing exactly how something was digitized is critical for future stewards of these objects to be able to properly care for and preserve them. However, detailed technical information about the processes involved in the digitization of audiovisual materials is not defined explicitly in most metadata schemas used for audiovisual materials. In order to record process history using existing metadata standards, some level of creativity is required to allow existing standards to express this information.

This talk will detail different metadata standards, including PBCore, PREMIS, and reVTMD, that can be implemented as methods of recording this information. Specifically, the talk will examine efforts to integrate this metadata into the Museum of Modern Art’s new digital repository, the DRMC. This talk will provide background on the DRMC as well as MoMA’s specific institutional needs for process history metadata, then discuss different metadata implementations we have considered to document process history.
