Danielle:
New digital collections portal: http://digital-stg.library.cornell.edu/
Migrating We are migrating DLSX text collections for 3 years that we would like to centrally manage White paper on rather than having so many boutique-y websites
AV streaming paper
Artstor - happy with cataloging, but not front end
Met that can feel outdated quickly. This portal will provide a single point of access for all collections regardless of format type rather than creating more collection silos – everything will be in one place. This initiative was bolstered by the paper that is being written on AV streaming, and the fact that we are happy with Artstor's cataloging, but not so much their delivery system. The portal was met with more success than anticipated and want the team wanted to get feedback todayWill change . The Hydra group to will become the Digital Collections Portal group
Single point of access for all points of collections rather than collection silos – all things in one place
Melissa:
Showed the public facing website for Cornell Collections of Antiquities public facing website about collection
Old websites outdated, single portal for image collections while concurrently working on DLXS collections, which are text based and unify all regardless of format type
Staging development site (not live)
Many views
Continue using SS and the staging development site for the portal. We will continue using Shared Shelf as cataloging tool, but we will be harvesting the metadata in new ways
IIIF – downloading original from SS then use IIIF viewer
Metadata display on the right
Want to hear about what users would need
SS will be there for a while
Think about different user groups
How do people collect images using this?
Email, cite, bookmark, download all into one zip file
Multiple collection searches
Bastides will go in here as well
Bastides update:
. The images will be downloaded then used with the IIIF viewer. We will have to set up user scenarios and think about how our patrons would use this/what they need. The results cam be emailed, cited, bookmarked, and downloaded in one zip file. Eventually we will be able to do multiple collection searches.
Bastides update:
The Bastides project will go into the digital collections portal. The team met with John, and we are looking to launch the website Met with John, looking to launch in early November (by his 94th birthday)
Continue with current design and add in mock-ups, MB will work with MW and JC
