Erich Purpur and Amber Sherman presentation at the American Association for the Advancement of Science - Pacific Division at San Francisco State University. June 6th, 2015. Digital Preservation of 3D Objects in Academic Libraries
Presenter: Derrik Hiatt, Wake Forest University
This session will focus on the benefits and challenges of implementing CORAL (Centralized Online Resource Acquisitions and Licensing), an open source ERM developed at the University of Notre Dame. CORAL offers libraries the option to reorganize their electronic resource management workflow and to collect information about their electronic resources into one central place without having to commit funding for a new library software from the ever shrinking library budget. CORAL currently includes four modules: licensing, resources, organization, and usage statistics. In addition to the challenges that are faced in any ERM implementation such as data collection, data preparation, staff buy in, etc., this session will address issues specific to using an open source software in an academic library.

Here are a few ways the HTRC could help with this use case:
1. Enrich the metadata to consistently tag or link works that were originally serialized, and identify the relevant periodicals. This would allow searching and filtering by serialization.
2. Perform text mining on periodical full text to automatically identify works by author and group related snippets together. Machine learning could help with this task.
3. Allow searching bibliographic metadata by author name, then viewing a timeline or network graph of where their works appeared - both in volumes and periodicals. This could help scholars trace serializations.
4. Support analytical workflows that extract and group text snippets by serialized work, rather than just by volume. This would facilitate

Introduction to and overview of digital repository projects at Northwestern University, developed for a guest lecture at the Dominican University Graduate School of Library and Information Science Digital Curation course. Presentation based in part on an earlier presentation developed by Steve DiDomenico and Claire Stewart
This document compares e-books to printed textbooks and discusses digital libraries. It notes that e-books can be read on devices like computers, phones, and e-readers. While e-books are convenient and can be read in sunlight, they are more fragile than printed books and rely on technology that could malfunction or be damaged. Digital libraries store information electronically, allowing remote access and solving space issues, but they are expensive and rely on changing technology. Overall, the document weighs the pros and cons of e-books and digital libraries compared to traditional printed materials.

Meeting the e-resources challenge through collaboration: an OCLC perspective ...NASIG
Libraries have been evolving their methods and approaches to managing the increasing range and number of electronic collections; however, much of the technology that has been developed to support this evolution involves the use of closed, disparate systems that each supports a single aspect of electronic resource management. At this session, OCLC staff and experts from member libraries will look at specific challenges of the e-resource management life cycle and share their perspectives about the opportunities to simplify and streamline processes at each step of the workflowselect, acquire, describe, discover, access and renew.
Particular focus will be given to the potential for libraries (and providers) to share data, tools and processes within OCLC's suite of WorldShare applications. These include: working with publishers to provide comprehensive, timely, good quality, reusable metadata to drive the discovery and usage of electronic resources; providing APIs that foster the development of functional enhancements that benefit everyone; working with a range of partners to embed metadata about, and drive discovery of, library collections in the sites and tools where users start their search.
OCLC is a worldwide cooperative of more than 16,000 libraries, archives and museums, working with members to provide a range of cloud-based, cooperative services that manage the complete library management life cycleOCLC WorldShare. OCLC's unique community-led approach to cataloging has resulted in widespread acknowledgment of the richness and accuracy of libraries' metadata. We are now applying this approach to the description, management and discovery of electronic resources.
By offering applications that address acquisitions, link resolution, authentication, license management, discovery, metadata synchronization and analyticson an open, shared platformOCLC is working with libraries to share the work of managing and delivering licensed resources with services that streamline and automate critical functions at every step of the library's workflow.

9 unknown mistakes you may be making while promoting your brand on social mediaway2webscape
Social media is widely used for marketing but can damage brands if not used properly. Some common mistakes brands make include only posting the same types of content, like industry news or blog posts, which becomes monotonous. They also fail to convert social media followers into marketing leads by collecting email addresses or add them to marketing lists. Additionally, brands neglect responding to customer questions, comments, and suggestions on social media. It is important for content on social media to be tailored specifically for the target audience by considering what would interest them rather than just what the brand wants to post. This article discusses additional best practices for using social media effectively in a follow up post.

The presenter argues that LOD represents a new paradigm that these cultural organizations should embrace to make their collections more accessible and useful on the web.
This document discusses the need for digital curation specialists in library settings to manage the growing volume of scholarly data and output. It recognizes that libraries have the skills and infrastructure to curate digital resources but will need new roles like digital curators, archivists, and data scientists. These roles require new training programs and concentrations in areas like data curation to develop specialists that can preserve, organize, and provide access to digital collections over the long term.
The document discusses the mass digitization of library collections at the University of California through partnerships with Google, Microsoft, and the Open Content Alliance. It outlines the California Digital Library's role in coordinating and overseeing digitization efforts across multiple UC campuses. The goals are to enhance access to collections, support new forms of research, and preserve materials. Challenges include determining copyright status and ensuring long-term digital preservation.
This document discusses the use of e-science, or collaborative science using advanced computing and networking infrastructure, in archaeology. It describes how e-science allows for global collaboration, sharing of resources securely over networks, and new forms of collaboration. Examples provided include projects linking digital archives and publications, using geospatial modeling to simulate ancient battles, and constructing geodatabases of archaeological evidence like tephra deposits. E-science provides opportunities to better analyze and understand large, heterogeneous archaeological data sources.
1) Libraries face challenges in developing digital management strategies due to the convergence of technologies and lack of established models.
2) Digital library research has had successes like user studies and federated search tools, but many open questions remain around issues like changing user behaviors, preservation, and digital asset management across different collections.
3) Libraries must work to realign their services and resources with how users perceive value as behaviors change, while dealing with limited budgets and vendor support in a fragmented environment.

Research Data Management in the Humanities and Social SciencesCelia Emmelhainz
This document provides an introduction to research data management for humanities and social sciences librarians. It discusses why data management is an important part of a librarian's role in supporting faculty research, and some key concepts in data management including data formats, storage, security, preservation, and sharing. The document emphasizes that while librarians do not need to be data experts, having a basic understanding of data management concepts can help librarians better serve faculty research needs and expand their role on campus.
This document discusses how libraries must constantly adapt to changing user demands and technologies. It begins by comparing adapting to changing technologies to a runner encountering hills - some libraries can speed through changes, some maintain their pace, and others fall behind. Whether a library adapts well depends on its energy level and training through budget and preparation. The document then summarizes several technology trends libraries must address, including information technology, social media, mobile devices, and user expectations of convenience. It provides examples of how libraries can meet these changing demands.

Rscd 2017 bo f data lifecycle data skills for libsSusanMRob
This document discusses the data skills required of librarians and presents a matrix of factors that influence these skills, including the librarian's role, the data lifecycle services provided by the library, and the research intensity of the institution. It notes the wide range of possible data-related skills and acknowledges that no individual can master all of them, emphasizing the need for librarians to work as a team with complementary skills. The document also examines questions around how librarians can become more involved in data science and what their future roles may be in supporting data-intensive research.
This document discusses the future role of libraries in supporting e-science. It makes three key points:
1. E-science aims to enable new forms of distributed, collaborative, multi-disciplinary and data-intensive science through the use of information technology. This will require libraries to manage large amounts of scientific data and improve access to information.
2. The future "hybrid library" will combine physical and virtual collections, providing organized access to intellectual works wherever they are located. Institutional repositories will be important for publishing data and integrating it into the digital research cycle.
3. Libraries will need skills in data management, curation and providing discovery and access tools for e-scientists. Physical library spaces may also

The Future of Libraries (for beginners)Jenna Kammer
The document discusses the past, present, and future of libraries. It outlines how libraries have evolved from physical collections to include online resources and digital materials. Some key points about the future of libraries mentioned are that they will have increased online and virtual services, subscriptions to digital materials like ebooks and audiobooks, and technology available for checkout. The needs of changing patron demographics like Generation Y are also addressed, and it is suggested that patrons will ultimately decide the future shape of libraries.

This document provides an introduction to GIS and QGIS. It discusses:
- Who the instructor is and their background in GIS.
- An overview of what GIS is, including its ability to store, manipulate and display geographic data, and how it can be used to analyze spatial relationships and patterns.
- A brief demonstration of QGIS and its capabilities. QGIS is an open source GIS software that can perform many of the same functions as ArcGIS desktop.
Erich Purpur is a science and engineering librarian who supports the UVA community in all aspects of the research process through research data services. He uses Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and the programming language Python to help analyze, visualize, and manipulate spatial data for research projects. As examples, he used GIS and Python to calculate the total distance an eagle flew from GPS data points and to visualize monthly patient data from a UVA oncology department on interactive maps. Purpur finds that these tools allow researchers to see and interact with their data in useful ways and help automate repetitive tasks, fitting with his goal of supporting all phases of the research process.
- The document summarizes a class on applying GIS methods in public policy decisions that was taught using the open-source software QGIS instead of ESRI's ArcGIS.
- The instructor has a GIS background and helps people with all aspects of the research process. The class was offered through the Frank Batten School of Leadership and Public Policy at the University of Virginia.
- Using QGIS allowed the class to be taught for free on the university's Mac computers since the IT department no longer widely supports desktop software. However, installing QGIS on 17 student systems led to various technical issues to solve.
Erich Purpur is a science and engineering librarian who supports researchers at UVA. He discusses how Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and the programming language Python can be used to analyze, visualize, and manipulate spatial data. As an example, he describes how an undergraduate used GIS and Python to convert latitude and longitude coordinates for over 6,000 data points collected from an eagle's flight into distances and calculate that the eagle flew around 79 miles in 3 hours. Purpur notes that researchers across disciplines at UVA utilize these tools to see and work with their data.
This document provides an overview of how to conduct a literature review using the tool Publish or Perish. It defines a literature review as a survey of published research in an area that combines summary and synthesis. Conducting a literature review establishes existing knowledge, identifies gaps, and situates an argument in context. Publish or Perish allows users to find seminal articles, trace the development of a field, and identify important journals. When reading sources, researchers should evaluate the authority and relevance of information. Organization is key, and citation management tools like Zotero, Mendeley, and EndNote can help track the large number of sources involved in a literature review.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Editor's Notes
Our incentive to bring this issue to a larger audience is that Amber and I can’t solve this problem on our own. We need input from the community on what best practices should be concerning preservation of 3D printed objects and thoughts about how we should move forward. The purpose of our presentation today is to raise the issue of digital preservation of 3D objects, particularly in academic libraries.
Erich - Lets start with a little background. Academic libraries have always been about providing forms of resources their campus community needs for learning, teaching, and research. In the past this was books but now new technologies are needed. This in particular includes students and faculty in science & engineering but also includes people in arts and a wide range of other disciplines. 3D printers have become one of the hot items to have. 3D prints come in many shapes and sizes and print in many materials including plastic, powder, metal, and even human tissue. Other technologies seen in libraries nowadays include laser cutters, Printed Circuit Board (PCB) milling machines, 3D scanners, and lendable technology..
As academic libraries see the value in these resources they are actively becoming a part of maker culture. Maker culture basically emphasizes do-it-yourself or hobbyist projects and can include things like woodworking, metalworking, arts & crafts, electronics, robotics, computer programming, etc.
The physical space inside academic libraries is also currently changing. The emphasis is now moving towards providing collaborative learning environments where knowledge creation can occur and in the process academic libraries are regaining relevance on campus.
(talk about photos from UNR)
Erich - Like they have done forever, Libraries continue to provision access to emerging and expensive technologies; except now students and faculty on campus need different tools.
Libraries are discipline neutral places on campus. Many discipline specific labs have their own tools but the problem is these tools are often only available to a small subset of people in that discipline. If you are not in the faculty member’s lab, you can’t use their toys.
Futhermore, these technologies are now visible in libraries to people outside traditional “3d printing users” like engineers, computer scientists, physicists, etc. At UNR we have seen huge interest from people in the arts and humanities as well. Because you have people in many areas bumping into each other, collaboration happens. (example?)
Amber: Erich mentions the maker culture and a big part of this is also sharing what you’ve made. So after you design your model and send it to the library to print, many people choose to share their objects by uploading them to a website to show what they’ve accomplished and/ or to allow others to download and remix and print at their institution.
Amber - And there are quite a few websites that make this really easy like thingiverse and sketchfab. Sketchfab has over 300,000 objects, thingiverse has over 100,000 uploads. Organizations like NASA and NIH and museums are also sharing their 3D models with the world. While these sites are good for uploading and sharing, they aren’t necessarily focused on long term preservation and access or organizing based on traditional library standards.
Also, these websites, serving as the repositories for 3d models are 3rd party providers. As users design and print 3D objects, these new forms of scholarship need to be preserved and these popular websites don’t really make any claims to permanently provide access to the objects or describe them the way catalogers might.
Amber - We took a look at several of these sites to see what information or metadata is collected. The table on the left shows Dublin Core elements and checkmarks indicate if there is some field which could correlate with the DC term. The table on the right shows other descriptive fields available.
The checkmarks indicate if there is a field available to input this information but very little is actually required when uploading, and most of the fields are not sortable.
Amber: We think the current practices fall short compared to traditional library cataloging standards because they are not focused on long term preservation and access or the re-printing of objects. Looking at what websites are collecting and using what we know about 3D printing, Erich and I started putting together a list of attributes we think would capture information relevant to current users and also for long term access.
Amber: All of the websites we looked at had a place for comments and we pulled these from a file uploaded by the British Museum. As you can see, when you aren’t including information about the models that would allow people to reprint, you start getting questions. While it might be ok now, people probably aren’t going to continue responding forever. Also, the comments aren’t always searchable, so even if an answer is given, if it’s not included in the metadata, you won’t be able to search based on information you need - for example printer type.
Amber: As Erich mentioned, 3d printing is an emerging technology and with that comes a lot of new standards and policies. We think having the library community adopt a metadata standard is important but there are many groups working on other parts of 3d printing education, preservation and access including: NIH 3D Printing and Modeling Special Interest Group; an open licensing system for 3d printed objects; ALA has released several whitepapers and webinars on all aspects of 3d printing in libraries; the makerspace community is a good mix of librarians and others who discuss ideas related to this technology; a group out of Cornell are working on a new open source file format for 3d printing.
Erich - So - not exactly the end of days if in 10 years a researcher can’t access a 3d printed iphone case, but libraries should position themselves to create frameworks to ensure we stay on top of the issue and don’t have to go back and figure out how to do this after files are already inaccessible.
Erich - A good example of this is video games. An example of this is an article published in 2006: “‛The Old Version Flickers More’: Digital Preservation from the User’s Perspective.” Many of us had our favorite arcade, Atari, or Nintendo game as a kid and wish to relive that experience. Video game emulators are available which allow the user to play the game on a newer console but quite often it just isn’t quite “right.” Sometimes the timing isn’t the same, modern controllers don’t offer the same experience, etc. So even though you can play the game today, it isn’t what it used to be in the arcade at the mall. Also, emulators are often created by individuals as side projects or hobbies and then abandoned. The same thing applies to today’s 3D printed objects. Unless we preserve the essential characteristics of these models we will be unable to recreate them in the future. Additionally, this scholarship and worth preserving for the future. However, libraries have no control over 3rd party commercial providers like Thingiverse and Sketchfab and have no influence over their preservation standards. What if one of these sites ‘wins out’ over the other and shuts down - who will manage the 400,000+ files (growing exponentially)? Even if they are properly saved, backed up, if the right metadata isn’t used, we won’t be able to organize and find files.
-mention .stl file is aging. New file formats on the way
Erich-
In conclusion. Our incentive to bring this issue to a larger audience is that Amber and I can’t solve this problem on our own. We need input from the community on what best practices should be concerning preservation of 3D printed objects and thoughts about how we should move forward.
