10:00 15 am: Peter Murray - Introducing FOLIO, A Platform of Services for Libraries: How nimble is your library automation system? What if your automation system resembled apps on a smartphone -- allowing you to choose apps that meet your needs with the expectation that they will sensibly communicate with each other? FOLIO is a library services platform -- infrastructure that allows cooperating library apps to share data. Librarians, developers, and user experience designers from all over the world are participating in designing and creating this open source effort. The FOLIO project is also an effort to build a sustainable, community-driven collaboration around the creation of a modern technology ecosystem that empowers libraries. Attendees will learn key aspects of the FOLIO project and how the FOLIO platform technology will impact library service offerings. Attendees will also learn how they can participate in the FOLIO community.

Well, you can fix thousands of item records by hand or you could use a little bit of Python and a lot of trial and error to automate your troubles away. This is the story of taking the second option and tribulations and triumphs involved. Alma Enumerator is a set of Python scripts that use the Alma API to parse free text item description fields and convert them enumeration and chronology data that can be uploaded back into Alma. The presentation will cover the problem that needed to be solved, the design considerations, complications encountered during development, and the highlights and shortcomings of the collection of scripts that became Alma Enumerator.

3pm: Tammy Stitz -3Making your PDFs universally accessible:15 BreakOne of the largest problems for students who use screen readers is reading PDFs. Even the intellectual content of their courses is easier to understand than trying to figure how to read the PDF. Sometimes PDFs cannot be read and other PDFs are read as blocks of text without an easy way to jump to different sections, which is problematic for long documents in particular. This presentation will discuss the features of an accessible PDFs based on the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0. It will show how to correct some issues using Adobe Acrobat DC when using a few different programs to generate the PDFs.

10:30 20 min prez45 am: Samuel Hansen - PodcastRE Not Podcatcher: Archiving Podcasts for Research: While there are many solutions to the problem of downloading and storing podcasts, none of them take into account the needs of archivists or researchers. This is only fair as most people, including myself on most days, are just downloading them for entertainment, but as podcasts increase in importance in culture so does the need for preserving them for both posterity and research. This is the goal of PodcastRE, http://podcastre.org, created by Jeremy Morris and Eric Hoyt at UW-Madison. During the evolution of the project which I have been a part of for the past year, from iTunes collection to full blown archive, many unexpected and interesting obstacles have reared up. In this talk I will discuss some of them, particularly the ways podcasts, and their RSS feeds, create challenges to those of us trying to store their contents long term, the new data model we had to create to deal with these challenges, and how we try to deal with the many changes creators can make to the RSS feeds at any given time.

11:00 15 am: Glen Horton - Mindful Coding: How does writing or reviewing code make you feel? Stressed? Fatigued? Anxious? Things like deadlines, project overload, and work environments can have a big impact on how developers feel when they interact with code. How can developers focus their attention, create better products, and increase their overall well-being all at the same time? Mindful coding. Mindfulness has been used to reduce stress and increase the quality of people's lives and it can be used during development as well. Glen will share the mindful approach he takes to writing and reviewing code at the University of Cincinnati Libraries. Learn how being present in the moment, focusing, and empathizing with users can lead to a better product and actually be therapeutic for the developer.[https://osf.io/m256r/ Link to Glen Horton's presentation slides]
