How the availability of digital content has provided new opportunities for research questions in education
Open.Ed
This document discusses open access to archives and historical records. It notes that the National Library of Wales has been a strong advocate for open access by making the Welsh Journals and Newspapers projects fully open online. This allows students in Glasgow to study Welsh wills freely instead of Scottish wills that require paying fees. The document calls on the Scottish Government to consider this lesson and expand open access to more of its archives. It concludes by providing contact information for the author Lorna M. Campbell.
Stories to tell: The making of our digital nation. April 2010
A new type of digital volunteer is quietly adding to the sum of knowledge of our history and heritage on the web. Ordinary Australians have helped correct millions of lines of text in the National Library of Australia's Newspaper Digitisation Program. They have contributed thousands of photographs to the national digital picture collection. The presentation describes these projects and others from libraries and archives that you can help with. Everyone can help to improve, describe and create our digital heritage.

FryskLab - Education, innovation and maker culture in the library
FryskLab is an initiative of Library Service Friesland (Bibliotheekservice Fryslân, BSF) and the Frisian public library network. Friesland is a rural province in the northern part of the Netherlands and FryskLab, operating from a truck formerly used as a bookmobile, is Europe’s first official library FabLab, or “fabrication laboratory”. Its varied team consists of IT specialists, arts management professionals and librarians, and its goal is to examine the extent to which this mobile FabLab initiative contributes to the development of creative, technical and entrepreneurial skills of children and young adults. The project is ultimately expected to result in an increase of the innovative capacities of the entire province of Friesland.
Officially launched in 2014, FryskLab has so far received a number of awards, including the American Library Association’s (ALA) 2017 Presidential Citations for Innovative International Library Projects award. Making knowledge and sharing the future, the motto of the FryskLab project, reinforces the role of libraries in facilitating access to various “tools of knowledge” (equipment and technology) and providing support in the form of various educational and training programmes, effectively bringing together physical and digital, traditional and modern means of acquiring knowledge.

Crowdsourcing, scholarship and the academy
This document discusses crowdsourcing in cultural heritage institutions like libraries, archives, and museums. It defines crowdsourcing as outsourcing tasks traditionally done by employees to a large, undefined network of people through an open call. Crowdsourcing activities in these fields include tasks like digitization, transcription, and description undertaken by volunteers or participants in games. People are motivated by interests in subjects, altruism, and developing new skills. Examples provided include transcription projects, weather data collection, and transcribing historical recipes. Crowdsourcing can build communities of practice and stepping stones for skills like observation, sourcing evidence, and posing questions.

Presentation delivered by Sue Hutley at the NSW.net eResources Seminar held at the State Library of New South Wales October 25th 2011.
Public libraries in The Netherlands: a powerful network
In this presentation I will briefly present the structure of the public library network in the Netherlands, with particular emphasis on the way public library innovation is “organised”. There is currently a community of practice (CoP) organised for every specific area of library innovation which at the same time also addresses officially established national priorities, i.e. lifelong learning, development of traditional library services, education of the young population, etc. Librarians in each of the CoPs share experiences specific to their field based on which they identify future activities aimed at the development of the particular field. Librarians included in this CoP system come from libraries of all types and sizes regardless of the province or region.

Kathryn eccles digital humanities
The document discusses the field of digital humanities, including its origins in humanities computing and shift to a broader scope. Key topics addressed include understanding digital transformations through projects analyzing usage of digitized resources; employing big data and new methods like GIS; examining the value of humanities; and exploring public engagement through crowdsourcing. Questions are raised about ensuring new digital tools and datasets support traditional humanities research and how digital humanities can contribute to debates around the importance of the humanities discipline.
Open data and entrepreneurship
This document discusses open data and entrepreneurship. It begins by framing data as the new oil and discusses four eras of data: 1) cultural data from galleries and museums; 2) open government data in 13 main categories; 3) scientific data which is large, diverse, and complex; and 4) internet of things data which will be enormous and from many sources. It then provides advice for young entrepreneurs, public data publishers, and regulators. The key advice includes focusing on added value, using open standards, promoting grassroots activities, and not being afraid to pioneer in this new field.
Sca planning meeting1

It outlines several models including: central government investment; private sector investment; crowd-sourcing; internal resource redeployment; and consortial/collaborative approaches. Each model is described and examples are provided of institutions that have implemented different approaches. The document emphasizes finding ways to move from only a small percentage of collections being digitized to digitized content being at the "heart of every citizen's online experience."
Digital Cultural Heritage and Open Education
Lightning talk for the Digital Cultural Heritage Research Network Cultural Heritage Sparks workshop at Edinburgh University on 29/01/2016
Crowdsourcing as Public Engagement
Crowdsourcing can be an effective way for cultural heritage institutions to engage the public by having them help with labor-intensive tasks like transcription. Examples where this has worked well include contributions to the Oxford English Dictionary, Wikipedia, transcription of over 47 million lines from Australian newspapers by local and family historians, and collection of over 1.5 million bird observations in one month by the eBird project. For crowdsourcing to be sustainable, interfaces need to be engaging; contributors need recognition; and crowdsourcing should be seen as part of a broader public engagement mission rather than just a single project.
Digitised Content: What universities can learn from publishers and what publi...
The document discusses issues around digitizing cultural and educational content in the UK. It summarizes the JISC Digitization Program which has funded over 50 projects since 2004 to digitize resources. It notes challenges in getting enough users and sustaining digital resources. Publishers tend to be better than universities at focusing on users and long-term plans. The document advocates for more sharing of skills and content across platforms to create a critical mass of accessible digital resources.
Task 2A
The document discusses different types of media and their digital formats:
- Online newspapers present news in a timely manner and help decrease costs compared to print.
- Online magazines were pioneered by Computer Magazine and can be called webzines or e-zines.
- Album covers and CD packaging protect the music and accompany digital downloads.
- Interactive media like websites are digital, respond to user input, and combine audio/video.
Open Access in South African Universities - Beyond journal articles
The document discusses the history and current state of open access in South African universities. It notes that open access issues came to the forefront in 2015 during student protests calling for decolonization of universities and lowering of fees. Currently, South African universities emphasize publishing in international journals, driven by prestige and promotion systems. However, this system originated from post-World War II efforts in Europe to promote English and support British interests. Open access is presented as an alternative that could make research more openly available and address local needs through open publishing models. New models of open science emphasizing open data and continuous sharing of research are also discussed as emerging alternatives.
Lecture to SMU | ICTs in peacebuilding
This document discusses Sanjana Hattotuwa's work using various information and communication technologies (ICTs) like social media, blogs, and maps to promote peace, social justice, and reconciliation in Sri Lanka. Some key points made include monitoring election violence and disasters using maps, bearing witness to alleged war crimes through satellite imagery on blogs, and archiving media and submissions related to Sri Lanka's history and human rights on websites. The document also briefly outlines how future technologies like location awareness, drones, internet of things, and increased smartphone access could influence peacebuilding and human rights outcomes.

Engagingly Different
My keynote presentation for Future Dem 10 showing politicians, police, councillors, mayors and decision-makers engaged with their communities in ways some people may find quite unexpected. Digital technologies afford new and different approaches to old problems such as anti-social behavior, postindustrial decline and regeneration. However, to achieve digital inclusion we have to consider digital relevance and promote digital enthusiasm.
Democracy works best when communities engage their elected representatives, not just the other way round. In showing the unexpected, I hope I may challenge some of the preconceived ideas about engagement and inclusion and invite people to consider new approaches.

Supporting citizens with protecting their privacy online
Aude Charillon's (Library and Information Officer, Newcastle Libraries) presentation to the CILIP 2017 Conference in Manchester #CILIPConf17
Library staff play a big role in supporting citizens with digital skills, and knowing how to protect one’s privacy online is part of those digital literacy skills everyone should have. The Newcastle Libraries team started helping citizens with their privacy by hosting cryptoparties where people can learn about tools available to make their internet browsing and mobile communications more secure.
This session will cover in more details the reasons why libraries should get involved in supporting citizens with protecting their privacy online, how staff can do this and what tools can be installed on library computers to enhance user privacy.

Discovering New Zealand Museums
The document summarizes New Zealand's efforts to digitize content from its museums through several initiatives. The National Digital Forum and DigitalNZ work with museums to make their collections available online through the NZMuseums website. Small museums benefit from having a web presence without much funds or expertise. The website uses an eHive collection management system and shares data through APIs and harvesting to integrate with other sites and allow different presentations of museum content. Copyright and rights issues must be addressed to allow legal reuse of digitized materials.

Wikimedia Commons Social History Photo Initiative
This is a two-part presentation made at the Museum & Gallery Services (Queensland) Networking event in December 2009. The first part outlines the rationale for the Queensland Museum contributing a small selection of high quality, copyright free social history photographs to Wikimedia as a first step towards developing a digitisation strategy. This is the first contribution made to Wikimedia by any Australian cultural heritage organisation with many mutual benefits arising. The second part demonstrates the use of NING as a social media platform for museum professionals to engage with and to share ideas.
Annotated Corpora for Research in the Humanities
1) While annotation can provide useful information for analysis, it also introduces problems like subjectivity, inconsistency, and the risk of losing uniqueness from the original text.
2) With the abundance of digital data, we need approaches that go beyond finite annotated corpora to include things like speech, video, internet language, and multi-modal contexts.
3) Rather than separate "silos" of resources, we need an interconnected "ecosystem" through shared infrastructure, standards, and services to enable discovery and analysis across distributed data.

The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.

Apps Break Data
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?

GNSS spoofing via SDR (Criptored Talks 2024)
In the realm of cybersecurity, offensive security practices act as a critical shield. By simulating real-world attacks in a controlled environment, these techniques expose vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them. This proactive approach allows manufacturers to identify and fix weaknesses, significantly enhancing system security.
This presentation delves into the development of a system designed to mimic Galileo's Open Service signal using software-defined radio (SDR) technology. We'll begin with a foundational overview of both Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and the intricacies of digital signal processing.
The presentation culminates in a live demonstration. We'll showcase the manipulation of Galileo's Open Service pilot signal, simulating an attack on various software and hardware systems. This practical demonstration serves to highlight the potential consequences of unaddressed vulnerabilities, emphasizing the importance of offensive security practices in safeguarding critical infrastructure.
