"We'll burn that bridge when we get to it”—Technology, Metadata Standards, an...Jennifer Liss
Linked data, RDA, and shelf ready processing are relatively recent developments in a long evolution of library technology, metadata standards, and technical services workflows. Although change has been a constant fixture of the cataloger's reality, change is nonetheless disruptive—sometimes, bridges burn. This session takes a historical view of cataloging and metadata creation from the time of Cutter to the dawn of semantic search. The evolution and interplay of technology, metadata standards, and workflows—the tools of our trade—will be considered. What were the roles of catalogers during times of transition? Which personal and professional strengths have proven invaluable over the last century? How does any of this help our community interpret developments in linked library data or user-centered resource discovery? The presenter will propose a framework for interpreting changes in library technology, metadata standards, and technical services workflows. By viewing such changes through the lens of cataloging competencies, our community might navigate into new territory and cooperate in the building of new bridges.
The presentation will begin at 12PM EST and discuss IT governance. IT governance refers to the rules and regulations that govern an IT department and ensure compliance. Good IT governance provides several benefits, including standardized processes, maximized IT investment returns, and alignment between IT and business objectives. The presentation will cover IT governance definitions, frameworks like COBIT and ITIL, and take questions from the audience.
It governance in higher education institutions in the philippinesDave Marcial
This document discusses a study on IT governance in higher education institutions in the Philippines. The study investigated the level of prioritization and degree of implementation of IT governance. Some key findings include:
- IT governance in HEIs is highly prioritized but only moderately implemented, showing a gap between priorities and implementation.
- There is a positive relationship between the level of prioritization of IT governance and its degree of implementation.
- The IT manager's level of technical and conceptual skills are also positively related to the degree of implementation.
- Factors like the IT manager's decision-making abilities and the HEI's size/resources were not significantly related to implementation.

Technology is an integral part of business. Development or adoption of new technology can lead to competitive advantage. From a strategic perspective, technology should be seen as the enabler of the business model to create and deliver value to customers. It is the means rather than the end goal. With this in mind, companies should develop a formal Technology Strategy to support their business objectives. This presentation puts forward a simple framework called the Technology Strategy Canvas.
Technology strategy is shaped by a firm's technological capabilities and competencies, which are developed through enacting the strategy. The document outlines a framework for technology strategy with four stances: competitive strategy, value chain, resources commitment, and management. It also discusses how technological capability, competence, substance of strategy, and enactment are interrelated in developing and implementing an effective technology strategy.
Technology strategy at national level; Technology strategy at organizational level; Generation / development of technology; S curve of technology evolution; Technology progression
The document discusses various aspects of banking including the functions of banks such as accepting deposits and lending loans, popular banks in India like SBI, ICICI Bank and HDFC Bank, how these banks work by investing deposits and earning interest, and the impact of information technology on modern banking through online and mobile banking services. Key banks mentioned include ICICI Bank, HDFC Bank, and Axis Bank along with details on their operations, services offered, and financial performance.
Reengineering The IT Operating Model to Embrace The Power Of The Cloudaccenture
The document discusses how traditional companies have failed to realize the full potential of cloud computing by simply adopting the new technology without reengineering their IT operating models. It argues that in order to harness the power of the cloud, companies need more nimble models that prioritize experimentation and innovation over rigid command-and-control structures. Specifically, the document recommends that companies create self-contained "service teams" to plan, build, and deliver services in a collaborative way without organizational barriers like traditional incumbents have.
This document discusses various technologies used in banking. It describes Inter Bank Mobile Payment System (IMPS) and how it allows customers to transfer funds between banks via mobile devices. It also discusses online banking, use of analytics for segmentation and understanding customer preferences, convergence of storage and computing infrastructure, mobile banking, electronic bill payment, electronic fund transfer, electronic cheques, Real Time Gross Settlement (RTGS) system, and Automatic Teller Machines (ATMs). The benefits of these technologies for customers, banks and employees are reduced costs, immediate access to accounts and transactions, increased productivity and efficiency. The challenges are costs of implementation, risk of technology failures, penetrating rural areas and upgrading workforce skills.
The document analyzes the role of information technology in the banking industry. It discusses how banks now offer various digital services like net banking, mobile banking, bill payment and ATMs. The objectives are to review how IT has been implemented in banking and how it helps banks deal with new economic challenges. The analysis shows that mobile banking is most used in Kenya and IT reduces operational costs for US banks. It concludes that adopting new technologies improves bank performance and regulations.

Steps to Pro-active Governance & Adoption in Microsoft 365Richard Harbridge
Organizations are looking to Microsoft 365 to transform and optimize how they work. When organizations are only reactive with governance and adoption efforts, they will continue to fall behind and spend all their time firefighting, supporting, and struggling to manage and get the most out of their Microsoft 365 investments. Proactive governance leads to greater stability, better resiliency, and much greater effectiveness. When paired with proactive adoption, you achieve far more with less. So why don’t organizations all embrace proactive governance and adoption? Why aren’t all organizations proactively tackling Microsoft Teams lifecycle management or how to best drive more significant teams' usage before and after meetings? Because it can be a daunting challenge, especially without help or a proven path forward.
Join Richard Harbridge, a Microsoft MVP and internationally recognized expert on Microsoft 365 and the Digital Workplace, as he shares the best ways to accelerate and shift Microsoft 365 governance from being reactive to being proactive. We will explore how proactive adoption aligns and compliments this proven approach and how it and the effectiveness driven by good governance help organizations maximize the value of their digital workplace and Microsoft 365 investments.
The document discusses the evolution of IT and its increasing importance and connection to business strategy in associations. IT now encompasses areas like online presence, data management, infrastructure, and technology governance. While IT and business operations used to be separate, today they are highly integrated. For those outside of IT, it is important to understand one's role in collaborating with IT on decisions around new systems, upgrades, training, and how IT supports organizational strategy. Effective collaboration, with strategy driving technology needs, is key to achieving success.

SPCNA 2018 - Top Form - Using PowerApps to Replace List FormsMarc D Anderson
For years, we've customized standard SharePoint list forms by adding our own JavaScript or CSS to the page. When we needed more, we turned to InfoPath. But all that should be in our review mirror now. PowerApps is a natural successor to those methods and gives us the ability to create rich forms including old favorites like cascading dropdowns, improved styling, and internal logic. We can also add in great capabilities like maps, imagery, and data retrieved from calls to outside services.In this session, we'll look at:
- Basic PowerApps capabilities
- Utilizing connections to SharePoint lists and libraries and other sources
- Redesigning your existing forms in PowerApps using common examples
- Creating forms in PowerApps which go beyond what we could ever do in the past

This document summarizes emerging issues for associations discussed at a presentation. The main points are:
1) Associations must adapt to changing expectations and look at everything differently due to new realities like forced changes, different member expectations, and creating meaningful value.
2) External trends like humanization, responsible consumption, and collaborative culture are impacting associations. Technology is also shifting roles from support to collaboration and requiring management of internal and customer-facing systems.
3) Associations can operate virtually without physical offices by leveraging technologies like cloud services, video conferencing, and mobile devices. This provides flexibility but also challenges with perceptions and infrastructure.

2015 asae cr virtual roundtable how to leverage components with grassroots ef...Trevor S. Mitchell, CAE
This document discusses how organizations can leverage components, or local chapters, to support grassroots efforts and engage members. It recommends that organizations first integrate components into their overall strategy by defining the goals and purpose of the components. Organizations should then provide leadership training, clear calls to action, and track data to measure engagement at both the component and organizational levels. By starting small and focusing on measurable outcomes, components can strengthen engagement through peer-to-peer connections across different levels from local to industry.
The document outlines the agenda for a meeting including expectations to better understand processes, setting expectations, and clearing up confusion. It also discusses the company's technology roadmap and strategy, the project list, IT support guidelines assigning points of contact, and setting next steps for regular updates on frequency and delivery method to improve collaboration.
This document discusses hidden keys to success for associations. It identifies operational efficiency, organizational culture, project management, communication, and customer support as important factors. Operational efficiency involves leveraging technology, streamlining processes and meetings. Organizational culture focuses on staff, board and member interactions and comfort with change. Project management requires clear roles, timelines and accountability. Communication considers internal and external stakeholders. Customer support plans for long-term support of projects and customers. The document encourages associations to focus on these areas to better achieve their goals and define success.
The document discusses leadership lessons that can be learned from watching television. Some key lessons include how characters on shows demonstrate both good and bad leadership traits and behaviors, as well as how certain situations are resolved which provide examples of leadership strategies to follow or avoid. Viewers can gain insights into effective communication, decision making, managing people, and other important leadership skills by observing characters on popular television shows.
This document summarizes an event about emerging issues for associations. It discusses how associations now have to manage two sets of systems - their internal infrastructure and customer experience. It also explores how the nature of content development and information sharing has changed, with trends like co-creation. The document stresses that associations must keep their finger on the pulse of trends to budget, staff and plan infrastructure appropriately in order to remain relevant in today's changing environment.
This document provides an overview of parliamentary procedure and guidelines for leading effective meetings. It discusses the importance of using parliamentary procedure to structure meetings and ensure members' rights. Key elements that make meetings effective include starting on time, having an agenda and order of business. Common motions that may be used in meetings are also outlined, such as main motions to introduce business, amendments to modify motions, and points of order. Examples are provided to demonstrate how motions work in different scenarios.
This document discusses the building blocks of successful components and metrics for measuring success. It outlines core areas like governance, membership, and communication that components should focus on. It also discusses comparing components, the role of the component and lead association, and how to measure success through member satisfaction, governance practices, and financial stability. The document then covers the evolution of metrics for components, providing examples that range from simple metrics like member growth to more complex metrics like lifetime member value. It introduces a maturity model for components to track their progress. Finally, it discusses using this information to identify goals and metrics, plan strategies, and move components forward in a sustainable way over time.
Trevor Mitchell discusses trends and best practices for associations. Recent trends include a focus on relevance and the changing nature of membership. Current trends center around engaging members through value and combining meetings with education. Future trends involve the increasing roles of social media, generational issues, global considerations, and technology in shaping member expectations and operations. Mitchell addresses how associations can adjust to these changes.
The document discusses how associations can leverage their components (e.g. chapters) to grow membership. It recommends that associations clearly define components, understand their goals and data, and collaborate with them on recruitment and retention campaigns. An example case study showed that when one association collaborated with its chapters on campaigns, chapter membership grew 18% year-over-year and terminations without chapters increased only 3%, showing that chapters are a strong membership growth channel. The key is to start small, measure success, and refine strategies over time.
The document outlines an organization's approach to creating a scoring matrix to measure member engagement levels based on activities like membership type, education, leadership roles, and other involvement. It discusses gathering information on existing engagement tracking, prioritizing the project, testing a scoring system, and plans to roll out Phase 1 and begin Phase 2. It emphasizes defining engagement clearly and concludes by soliciting any remaining questions.
The document discusses the future of relationships between professional associations and their component organizations. It identifies several environmental factors impacting associations, such as globalization, technology, and increased competition. It poses strategic questions about who members will be, where they will be located, and what components will become. The principal challenges for associations are changing culture, developing new business models, obtaining resources, and cultivating volunteer leadership. Seven key success factors are engagement, communication, meaningful programs, recognizing when to sunset components, strategic planning partnerships with components. The document calls for building the future of associations and their component relations.
This document provides an overview of global issues and how they influence US policy and regulations. It discusses international associations and the importance of understanding global developments. Specific topics that were covered include the election of the new European Commission and Parliament, transparency in lobbying, the EU's climate and energy package, association reforms in China, and trade deals like TTIP. Case studies on issues like food safety and renewable energy integration were also proposed for discussion. Contact information was provided for follow up.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
