Changes
Added tiny amount of notes to Tools for Instruction break out session
==BIBFRAME==
Notes are based off the Tweets made by the group during the discussion:
'''Questions'''
*What will workflows will look like after Linked Data and BIBFRAME are actually pushed out?
*How to best use controlled vocabularies, including various/local controlled vocabularies, in linked data work?
*Will the protectiveness of quality by catalogers become thing of past?
'''Pros'''
*Good thing about RDF, semantic metadata structure is that is creates a good skeleton that can last through system changes.
*Talked about OpenRefine, Freebase, Linked Data/Semantic Web examples
*Shout out for the Open Metadata Registry - http://metadataregistry.org/
*RDFa allows multiple property values inline- more details than http://schema.org , starts to approach MARC richness
'''Concerns'''
*Wariness of simplicity (particularly of Dublin Core) due to the possibility of overloading elements, thus blocking interoperability with other schemas.
*There is the possible issue of every library creating their own ontologies, thus reinventing the wheel.
*Discussion of how long-term cataloging employees will handle this linked data 'revolution', how to best oversee these changes with catalogers dragging their feet.

==VuFind Update==
Sorry for the delay
We had a lovely gathering of VuFind veterans with a few new comers stopping by to hear what VuFind is all about. New comer and VuFind developer Chris Hallberg headed the meeting, a strong term for sitting there and listening to all the exciting news from our awesome collaborators.
We started with some spoilers from [http://code4lib.org/conference/2014/bauder Julia Bauder's Visualization Talk], a feature of VuFind in active development. Then we went over the short-term plans for VuFind, looking at our GitHub's pull requests, heard an update from Tom on data normalization.
John Sarnowski of the ResCarta Foundation came by to see how VuFind has change since he looked at it a few years ago as the front of his project. Looking forward to a possible collaboration here. Joe talked about his excitement over console tools and his frustration with licensing, hoping to see these in the VuFind core soon! We heard about the OLE timeline and wrapped with Julia talking about her success with ebsco.
Thanks for coming by! See you all in Portland!
