Currently the list includes:
- Moving items from the Library Angel instance into the Library FC2 drive. Status: nearly complete (75%). Completed 6/25/2015 - report sent to MJO (cc:RC)
- Brockport Bookshelf URL update - on hold until Ken hears back from ProQuest, or until 7/31, whichever comes first. Completed 8/4/2015
- The creation of a post-conference slide share for SURC, using the bepress batch upload feature. This will be a new experience for me, specifically using Google Drive to house the files in a publicly accessible area and using a script that automatically gathers the URL for use on the bepress upload spreadsheet. I found instructions on how to do this here: http://opus.govst.edu/faculty/30/ but there seems to be an issue that we are trying to work through right now. I never was able to get this to work.
- Uploading the remainder of the Philosophic Exchange articles.There are 3 people involved in this enterprise, each with a different degree of completion. First, Kristen has to get them scanned and OCR'd, then I create the journal, add metadata and upload them, and finally Gordon Barnes tweaks the disciplines and adds any email addresses he has. There were about 14 volumes online when we began, Kristen has completed 19 more, and I have uploaded 10 of those. I haven't heard from Gordon at all this summer, so much awaits him. We made a lot of progress this summer, but the project did not reach completion due to backlog in Philosophy.
- Another long term project has been creating and uploading Charlie's Oral History collection. He and I have worked together to massage the metadata, and I am working with Bob and Ken to tweak the audio component. Charlie has a series of .wav files dating back from the 1990's of interviews with alumni and emeriti. We will be putting together a community with images, transcripts and audio files. Ken is working on cleaning up some of the audio files, and Bob and I are trying to figure out (I think we have) how to use Kaltura to house the files. The three that CC had files and transcripts for are now online, and more are waiting transcripts.
- Final projects include completing the Publishing in Libraries conference site and creating a conference site for the 2011 IAPS Conference. Publishing in Libraries completed in August (see http://digitalcommons.brockport.edu/pubinlib/). IAPS did not get done, due to lack of clerical assistance.
