February/March meeting minutes sent out to CU-LIB:
- We welcomed Mann representative, Gail Steinhart.
- ARTstor updates
-
- Kaila and Martha are now both official ARTstor administrators for CUL, overseeing passwords & access permissions
- We are awaiting a new release of Shared Shelf (due out April) to begin cataloguing the following new collections: Japanese Woodblocks Faculty Grant; Kroch Asia Digital Collection; Olin-Uris Art Collection. Current Shared Shelf implementation lacks zoom functionality and the ability to upload metadata without images, and hence is too limited for our current needs.
- When new Shared Shelf release becomes available, VRWG will host a demo for CUL and other interested parties.
- We discussed how we might best customize the ARTstor interface for Cornell, including direct links to CUL help.
- There will be a plug-in to Blackboard in the summer release.
- Kaila has been working on the Visual Literacy Standards draft, and has requested feedback from the group.
- Danielle reported on A & S faculty grants to create new digital collections for use in teaching and research: https://confluence.cornell.edu/display/grantsas/Grants+Program+for+Digital+Collections+in+Arts+and+Sciences
- We have formed a Testing Subgroup to monitor quality and keep tabs with access to our various collections during software upgrades and content uploads.
- We have approved new collections into Flickr, including the Report of the Forest, Fish and Game Commission, published by NYS, 1895-1903, from Mann Library, and a number of collections from RMC. Liz Muller is working to standardize the workflow and achieve greater transparency to the process.
- Martha reported on the Design Library task force report.
- Liz Muller, Mira Basara, and Maaike Oldesmans reported on the recent ARLIS/VRA conference.
- We discussed the CUL Strategic Plan with an eye towards the role of VRWG helping to achieve stated goals.
- There will be a joint forum with Reference and Outreach in April. We hope you can join us!
