  • 2013 Goals (See http://staffweb.library.cornell.edu/node/810 for the original charges of VRWG). We discussed whether were we going to being a working group and/or a public group/outreach/information sharing. Consensus seemed to be on information sharing forum, (technical information, public services, outreach).
  • Possible projects- Review and update our web presence and print materials (VRWG website, wiki, image database list, print material; liase liaise between curators and communications as new collections are unveiled, branding collection homepages from the DRC Image Collections (Danielle and Melissa would need to be involved)
  • Membership-  The group decided to focus membership on CUL and Museums, perhaps touch base with those who haven't been seen in a while.
  • Brown Bags for 2013- We have a couple topics (maps, image resources and data visualization). Marsha and Kaila would love more topics VRWG members for consideration, even if said members aren't interested in presenting themselves.
  • vrwg-l: Should anyone else monitor this? Danielle oversees the list. Marsha makes referrals when appropriate.
  • Updates (Kaltura, etc.)- Kaltura was unveiled in November- 3 users have been set up, mostly for investigating the platform. Artstor- latest release was lacking acceptable new multi-media functionality, trying integrate Sharedshelf and Kaltura, working on mapping to Sharedshelf, still need to go through ARTstor for building new collections. History pin- we've uploaded some images, search "Abolitionist Map of America" on the PBS site site.
