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 fall 2012 the University of Calgary Library launched a new home page that incorporated a Summon powered
Single Search Box with customized “bento box” results display. Search at the U of C now combines a range of
metadata sources for discovery and customized mapping of a database recommender and LibGuide into a unified
display. Further customizations include a non Google Analytics/non proxy method to log clicks.<br><br>
This presentation will discuss the technical details of bringing the various systems together into one display interface to increase discovery at the U of C Library.
