== Mailing List ==
There is a separate Code4Lib-SE (Southeast) mailing list for the planning of Southeast region Code4Lib meetups. Feel free to post Code4Lib-SE topics to the main Code4Lib mailing list as well (for instance, announcing new meetups) but this Code4Lib-SE specific mailing list will make sure we don't drown the main mailing list with other sorts of Code4Lib-SE administriva.

| style="border:0.0104in solid #cccccc;padding:0in;"| Equinox Open Library Initiative has successfully implemented Aspen Discovery across a spectrum of libraries, from complex statewide consortia with hundreds of branches to single-location institutions. Learn how we leveraged Equinox’s long-term expertise with open source software to launch support services for Aspen Discovery, specializing in libraries using Evergreen ILS and Koha ILS. Participants will get an inside look at how libraries of varying sizes modernize discovery and how its emerging sustainability framework positions Aspen as a living project evolving alongside changing library services.

For almost a decade at NC State Libraries, our homegrown system has efficiently managed requests by centralizing the request creation process, tracking material movement, controlling researcher access, and providing extensive usage data for informed planning and resource allocation.
Circa seamlessly integrates with ArchivesSpace—allowing for effortless import and updates of container and location data—and connects with local catalogs to access non-ArchivesSpace materials. It supports on-site access, remote duplication requests, and leverages Information about the IIIF specification for high-resolution reproduction requests from digital collections.event can be found at this link: '''[[Southeast_2017|Code4LibSE 2017 Emory Meeting]]'''

Transkribus uses an AI approach that incorporates analysis models that users can train to better recognize specific line patterns and text format or handwriting stylessuda@gmail. For large collections that use one individual’s handwriting, or a series of geographiccom) -specific items, trainable models can increase the accuracy of the program significantly. We have worked with a small variety of collections using this tool, such as a Civil War collection that has a very large number of handwritten materials from an area with low literacy and askew line patterns, but also containing insightful information. Another example collection is the Maud Gonne and William B. Yeates Correspondence, which provides a unique collection where there is substantial existing transcription and a consistent handwriting style. Our presentation will focus on an introduction to the Transkribus Tool, our experience with “getting up to speed” with it, and a summary of the value we’ve gotten from its use and the various lessons learned should others wish to try it out.Cancelled

Keywords members are committed to centering African and African-descended people in the colonial archive and being accountable toward Black history and culture. Keywords members are dedicated to making these archival documents easily available to descendants in Gulf Coast communities, K-12 educators, and other researchers. We will use an interactive presentation to expand on two aspects of Keywords’ communal workflow: accountability and accessibility. We use a communal workflow to help make the historical archive available to the public and to present crucial resources to end users as part of keeping ourselves accountable to the representation of Black history and culture. Our presentation will demonstrate the workflow using a single document, from document selection to publication, with emphasis on the project’s minimal computing methods like markup and Wax and how we aim to prioritize the database’s accessibility for descendants and other researchers. We will conclude by discussing how Keywords members work together to provide necessary definitions of historical terms and events, especially when present in metadata, in the individual documents and in the database. We argue that communal workflow is critical to community-accountable organizing and Black digital humanities projects.

The second 2 hours will consist of breakout sessions where groups of folks can work with datasets using the tools/skills picked up. We invite people to bring their own datasets that need any kind of work - encoding issues, normalizing headings, mapping to other formats, pulling in URIs. If you don't bring your own data, we'll use datasets from UTK and the DPLA that need work normalizing and mapping names/subjects of regional interest. Attendees are invited to sit and learn or work on their own data - whatever you feel most comfortable with doing.
Please register below, and let us know if you are 1. able to share skills or 2. will be bringing your own data. Neither of these are required for attendance.
