S. L. Ziegler: Digitization Selection Criteria as Anti-Racist Action https://journal.code4lib.org/a
By deciding what to digitize in special collections and archives, we
choose what narratives to promote, what history to highlight, and what
legacies to further. This paper details a new initiative at LSU
Libraries to integrate diversity and inclusion goals into digitization
policies. After reviewing examples of how digitization can be either
beneficial or harmful to individuals represented in the historical
record, the author uses Ibram Kendi’s definition of racist policy —
that which leads to racial inequalities — as a starting point for
exploring how digitization selection can help counteract histories of
exclusion.
Dan Lou: Create Efficient, Platform-neutral, Web-Based Augmented
Reality Content in the Library https://journal.code4lib.org/a
Augmented reality (AR) is an interactive experience of viewing
computed-generated objects onto your view of the real world. Since the
Pokemon Go craze in 2016, many libraries have tested the waters with
AR programs. Some went on to the next step of developing their own AR
content to enhance library services and marketing. While there are
many AR applications that libraries can use for this purpose, it
usually thwarts customers that they must install various AR mobile
apps in order to enjoy these experiences on their own devices. This
becomes the major hurdle of making AR more enjoyable and accessible at
the library. What's more, libraries cannot share home-grown AR content
across different platforms easily because of the technical barriers in
various AR platforms. In this article, I would like to introduce a
completely open source AR developing tool that allows library staff to
create fast and efficient AR content with pure web solutions. It is
standard and works on mobile devices with no installation required. I
have created a basic AR experience with the tool for a regional
Pacific Library Partnership conference and it proved to be a success
in improving the accessibility and shareability of AR content.
Evan Williamson and Devin Becker: Programming Poetry: Using a Poem
Printer and Web Programming to Build Vandal Poem of the Day https://journal.code4lib.org/a
Vandal Poem of the Day (VPOD) is a public poetry initiative led by the
Center for Digital Inquiry and Learning (CDIL) at the University of
Idaho Library. For four academic years VPOD has published contemporary
poems daily in collaboration with award-winning poetry presses and
journals. This article details the project’s genesis and history,
focusing on two aspects of the project: 1) the customized WordPress
site, CSS, and plugins that enable the layout, publication, and social
media promotion of the poetry and 2) the innovative means we have
developed for promoting the site using receipt printers. The latter
portion includes details and code related to two different physical
computing projects that use receipt printers–one using a Raspberry Pi
and the other using a recycled library circulation printer– to print
individual VPOD poems on demand.
Jeremy Nelson: Developing Sinopia’s Linked-Data Editor with React and Redux https://journal.code4lib.org/a
An important software product for the Linked-Data for Production phase
2 grant from the Mellon foundation was the creation of a linked-data
editor that professional cataloging staff would use to create original
RDF descriptions of their collections. Using the Bibframe Editor from
the Library of Congress as inspiration, the Stanford University
Library-based software development team are actively building a
React/Redux linked-data editor for use by a cohort of national,
academic, and special libraries. A very popular combination for
front-end Javascript applications, this article will explain how React
and Redux are used with great success in the editor’s implementation
of a domain-specific-language (DSL) called Profiles containing one or
more resource templates that specify an HTML form-based user interface
for cataloging using RDF.
Patrick Harrington: Generating Geographic Terms for Streaming Videos
Using Python: A Comparative Analysis https://journal.code4lib.org/a
In libraries, the relationship between textual descriptions of
audiovisual material and access to that material is a primary concern,
as users expect to have access to all the library’s resources—which
increasingly include audiovisual content—through a simple and
effective web interface. At UW-Oshkosh, library staff developed a
unique site for its streaming video collection that would allow users
to search for videos and browse collections on particular topics
across each of the three vendors. In order to create more meaningful
and topical collections, various programming tools and techniques were
employed to identify geographical locations in vendor-supplied MARC
records. This article describes three different methods for generating
geographic terms for streaming videos using different Python libraries
and evaluates them based on the number of terms generated, overlap in
terms generated between the three methods, and the amount of cleanup
needed to generate useful geographic terms.
David Forero, Nick Peterson, Andrew Hamilton: Building an
institutional author search tool https://journal.code4lib.org/a
Ability to collect time-specific lists of faculty publications has
become increasingly important for academic departments. At OHSU
publication lists had been retrieved manually by a librarian who
conducted literature searches in bibliographic databases. These
searches were complicated and time consuming, and the results were
large and difficult to assess for accuracy.
The OHSU library has built an open web page that allows novices to
make very sophisticated institution-specific queries. The tool frees
up library staff, provides users with an easy way of retrieving
reliable local publication information from PubMed, and gives an
opportunity for more sophisticated users to modify the algorithm or
dive into the data to better understand nuances from a strong jumping
off point.
Emidio Stani: Design reusable SHACL shapes and implement a linked data
validation pipeline https://journal.code4lib.org/a
In July 2017, W3C published SHACL as the standard to validate RDF.
Since then, data modellers have the possibility to provide validation
services based on SHACL shapes together with their models, however
there are considerations to be taken in account when creating them.
This paper aims to list such considerations and shows an example of a
validation pipeline to address them.
Wilhelmina Randtke, Randy Fischer, and Gail Lewis: Consortial
RightsStatements.org Implementation and Faceted Search for Reuse
Rights in Digital Library Materials https://journal.code4lib.org/a
The Florida Academic Library Services Cooperative (FALSC) makes
available digital library hosting free-of-charge to all institutions
of Florida public higher education. 21 institutions participate in the
Islandora digital library platform hosted through FALSC. Centralized
digital library hosting through FALSC, or its predecessor consortium,
has been available since 1994. Meanwhile, the RightsStatements.org
standard, which provides a controlled vocabulary for indicating the
copyright status of digital library material, was released in 2016.
After the standard was released, participating libraries expressed
interest in implementing RightsStatements.org for existing digital
content. During Fall 2018 and Spring 2019, FALSC implemented
RightsStatements.org values on Islandora sites. This article describes
the process undertaken by FALSC, the lessons learned, and
recommendations for libraries looking to implement
RightsStatements.org values.
