Saving Orphans, One Vhs At A Time: The Story Of Section 108 At The University Of Connecticut Libraries, Jennifer M. Eustis
Saving Orphans, One Vhs At A Time: The Story Of Section 108 At The University Of Connecticut Libraries, Jennifer M. Eustis
OLAC Conferences
Perhaps you've witnessed the absolute terror of the faculty who cherishes their time old VHS used in teaching. At the University of Connecticut (UConn), those who have an affinity with VHS are finding it increasingly difficult to show them because UConn no longer supports this technology in classrooms. Hence, teaching faculty must either bring their own VHS player or use those in the library. Adding to this faculty frustration, many VHS tapes' quality are beginning to degrade with time and continual use. To help faculty, the Libraries use Section 108, orphan works, to determine when to provide a digital DVD …
Increasing Access To E-Books Using Qr Codes, Dana Hanford
Increasing Access To E-Books Using Qr Codes, Dana Hanford
OLAC Conferences
In order to draw attention to our library's ever-increasing e-book collection, I devised a way to promote select e-books by using QR codes that link a print copy of an e-book cover image to the bibliographic record in our catalog. By using a freely available QR code generator/tracker, I'm able to create a QR code with link for each select e-book cover image. The print e-book cover image and QR code are displayed in a clear acrylic frame on our new books display shelf (please see attached image). With the QR code tracker, I'm able to see which e-book QR …

Purchasing And Licensing Models Of Streaming Videos For Libraries, Cyrus Ford
OLAC Conferences
Libraries are moving toward online delivery. The distributors of commercial videos re-evaluated both the changing nature of the marketplace and the economic model of selling products. Also the licensing of online and on-demand video content is new and unclearly defined concept and practice. This program discusses the purchasing and licensing models of streaming videos for libraries.
The Progress Of Bibframe, Angela Kroeger
The Progress Of Bibframe, Angela Kroeger
OLAC Conferences
BIBFRAME is the Library of Congress's current effort to develop a linked data replacement for MARC. BIBFRAME is a work in progress, not yet ready for implementation. In this two-hour session, we will examine how BIBFRAME works, what it is intended to accomplish, and the progress that has been made toward that goal. We'll take a look at the BIBFRAME tools that are under development, including the prototype editor for creating new records. And we'll share a glimpse of what the future holds for library catalogs and cataloging.

Fan Fiction Metadata Creation And Utilization Within Fan Fiction Archives: Three Primary Models, Shannon Johnson
Fan Fiction Metadata Creation And Utilization Within Fan Fiction Archives: Three Primary Models, Shannon Johnson
Shannon F Johnson
Issues related to searchability and ease of access have plagued fan fiction since its inception. This paper discusses the predominate forms of fan-mediated indexing and descriptive metadata, commonly referred to as folksonomy or tagging, and compares the benefits and disadvantages of each model. These models fall into three broad categories: free tagging, controlled vocabulary, and hybrid folksonomy. Each model has distinct advantages and shortcomings related to findability, results filtering, and creative empowerment. Examples for each are provided. Possible ramifications to fan fiction from improved metadata and access are also discussed.

A/V Cataloging At The Crossroads: Cartographic Resources Basics Using Rda, Paige G. Andrew
A/V Cataloging At The Crossroads: Cartographic Resources Basics Using Rda, Paige G. Andrew
OLAC Conferences
The three areas of a bibliographic record describing a cartographic resource that typically cause the most questions for those catalogers new to the format or who only occasionally catalog them are: (1) choosing between multiple titles for the title proper, (2) scale statements and their conversion and geographic coordinates, and (3) the physical description. This RDA-focused cataloging workshop will delve into expression and manifestation elements from these three descriptive areas, using the sheet map as a focus. It is expected that attendees be familiar with overall RDA-based changes such as no longer using abbreviations, and navigating the RDA toolkit.

Cataloging 3d Objects & 2d Graphics Using Rda And Marc21: (The Fun, Touchable Stuff!), Julie Renee Moore
Cataloging 3d Objects & 2d Graphics Using Rda And Marc21: (The Fun, Touchable Stuff!), Julie Renee Moore
OLAC Conferences
This workshop will focus on the RDA description of some special formats-- such as 3-dimensional objects (such as realia, models, replicas, kits, and games) and 2-dimensional graphics (such as flash cards, pictures, posters, x-rays). Julie has much practice with these sorts of materials, housed in The Teacher Resources Center of the Henry Madden Library at Fresno State, which is home to the largest curriculum collection in the state of California. Attendees will participate in hands-on exercises which will include resources and documentation in support of cataloging these special formats with RDA.

The Internet Is The New Public Forum: Why Riley V. California Supports Net Neutrality, Adam Lamparello
Adam Lamparello
Technology has ushered civil liberties into the virtual world, and the law must adapt by providing legal protections to individuals who speak, assemble, and associate in that world. The original purposes of the First Amendment, which from time immemorial have protected civil liberties and preserved the free, open, and robust exchange of information, support net neutrality. After all, laws or practices that violate cherished freedoms in the physical world also violate those freedoms in the virtual world. The battle over net neutrality is “is absolutely the First Amendment issue of our time,” just as warrantless searches of cell phones were …

Data Doesn’T Have To Be A Four-Letter Word: Professional Development To Tame The Data Monster, Susan K. Boyd
Data Doesn’T Have To Be A Four-Letter Word: Professional Development To Tame The Data Monster, Susan K. Boyd
Staff publications, research, and presentations
Why is learning to manage data difficult? Or is it? This presentation covers the many ways—from freebies to formal education to learn what the information professional needs to know about data. From informal ways such as organizational listservs, to formal methods such as those in library science programs, (and everything in between)—here are the various ways to learn about data management so you can be prepared to start or contribute to a program at your institution.
Impacts Of Metadata On Accessibility Of Digital Collections, Teressa M. Keenan
Impacts Of Metadata On Accessibility Of Digital Collections, Teressa M. Keenan
Mansfield Library Faculty Publications
Conversations about universal design and accessibility have been commonplace among web developers since the 90s but they are just now beginning to emerge in the world of library digital collections. The very nature of materials often presented in digital collections create barriers to accessibility. One possible solution can be found in metadata. In the next 5 minutes I hope to briefly show how the quality and configuration of metadata can have a positive effect on accessibility of image collections.

How Do You Get Al Jazeera Worldwide To Purchase Your Christian Film For Middle East Broadcast? (Or, Can Christians Make Films The Secular World Will Pay Attention To?), Mark Volkers
Faculty Work Comprehensive List
Ask someone what comes to mind when you say, "Christian film." If your experience is anything like mine, the one word you'll hear more than any other is "Cheezy" (along with an eye roll to back it up). My film students and I prefer not to make "Christian" films. We prefer films that are made by Christians. We are Christians. We are film makers. We make films that draw from our perspective and world view and those views strongly shape subject matter and treatment, but we also understand that we are making films, not writing and preaching sermons. So often, …

Development Of The Idaho Statewide Travel Demand Model Trip Matrices Using Cell Phone Od Data And Origin Destination Matrix Estimation, Ben Stabler
PSU Transportation Seminars
As part of the initial phase of development for the Idaho Statewide Travel Demand Model, Parsons Brinckerhoff developed a base year auto and truck trip matrix using AirSage cell phone OD data, a statewide network in Cube, traffic counts, and origin-destination matrix estimation (ODME) procedures. To begin, the 4000+ statewide zone system was aggregated into a 700 super zone system for collecting the cell phone OD data. Next, the cell phone data was collected for the month of September 2013 for the following market segments: Average weekday resident HBW, HBO, NHB, and visitor NHB trips. The cell phone trips were …
