University of Baltimore - We will meet on the 5th floor of UB's [https://www.google.com/maps/place/Student+Center/@39.3051785,-76.6171759,15z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0xfe35ef42e4999d1f!8m2!3d39.3051785!4d-76.6171759 Student Center], in the Bogomolny Room. There is a security desk on the main floor of the Student Center where you'll need to sign in and get a visitor's badge. Take the elevator to the 5th floor, turn right when you get off the elevator, and the Bogomolny Room will be on your right. It is difficult to miss as it is the only sizeable room on this floor besides a theater.

'''Platforms for Using Modern Web Dev Tools'''

'''The Digital is Critical: Creating and Maintaining Equitable Library Systems'''

*Digital libraries should be one of the most powerful tools available to libraries to reduce economic, geographic, ableist, and political barriers to global open access for scholarly and cultural materials. But how well are digital library systems delivering on these social justice aspirations? The application landscape has dwindled to a handful of commercial applications owned by businesses with long histories in commodifying content, and an array of open source products with high technological barriers to entry. Inequalities between institutions, communities, and valuation of labor are increasingly apparent within the open source digital library space. This discussion will explore the impacts of stratification on library technologies, and consider critical approaches to create and maintain digital projects that serve equitable goals.

'''USMAI data warehouse initiative: Overview of application design and ETL process development'''

*Starting in 2018, the Consortial Library Applications Support (CLAS) group at the University of Maryland began a data warehouse design and implementation initiative to better serve the reporting and analytics needs of University System of Maryland and Affiliated Institutions (USMAI) consortium member institutions. Working in conjunction with a data warehouse architect, members of the CLAS team and applications developers from the Software Systems Development and Research (SSDR) developed an applications architecture to support the storage, dissemination, and use of integrated library system data in a web-accessible portal. Instrumental in this endeavour was the development of an extract-transform-load (ETL) framework to facilitate the exchange of data between library systems and data warehouse data layers. In this presentation, we will provide a brief overview of the project background and the activities undertaken to ensure the usability of our platform by consortial members. Furthermore, this presentation will provide an in-depth look at the development of ETL methodologies, the design framework that informed development activities, and a status report on current design and testing.

'''Successes and Setbacks in the University of Maryland - College Park Dataverse Pilot'''

*How many things can go wrong when implementing a new system? Apparently quite a few. This session will give an overview of the Dataverse pilot that is being conducted at the University of Maryland - College Park and a Library Science graduate student's perspective on working inside a data repository for the first time.
