This document discusses changes brought about by RDA (Resource Description and Access), the new cataloging standard that replaced AACR2. It notes that RDA is designed with the user and modern web environment in mind. Key differences from AACR2 include fewer abbreviations, dropping terms like GMD and rules like "rule of three", and adding elements like relationship designators. The document also discusses potential future developments like linked data and FRBR-based interfaces, and provides resources for libraries implementing RDA.

I looked up an older set of principles to see how these might compare. Abraham Maslow wrote a paper in 1943 called "A Theory of Human Motivation". This theory contends that when people have met their basic, physiological needs, they will then work to satisfy their higher needs. Maslow based his study on exemplary and successful people.
Don't Forget to Pack Your Social Network: Data Portability Myths and RealitiesMark Congiusta
As social networks become an ever increasing part of our online lives what happens to all of the data that we create as we leave comments on friends profiles, upload pictures and make online purchases? It SHOULD be your data too bad that's not always the case. This presentation discusses what data privacy and identity ownership mean in a networked world. Presented to Podcamp Kilkenny September 2008.
Daniel Judge's Code on the Beach 2015 Session.
A lot of what happens in our career is not because of our technical skills. Instead of worrying about new technologies, we should focus on improving our soft skills. Are you looking to get a promotion or land a better job? You'll need technical skills to get you in the door, but your soft skills will win you the job. We'll dive into areas that help us the most: social skills, professionalism, setting goals, productivity, and staying healthy.

Have you heard the catalogers in your library mumbling about RDA, FRBR, and other mysterious acronyms? Would you like to find how recent cataloging changes could affect you? Resource Description & Access (RDA) is the new cataloging code that replaced AACR2 early in 2013, and in this session, Emily Nimsakont, the NLC’s Cataloging Librarian, will provide a translation of "cataloger-ese" to explain what RDA is. She will also discuss how the new cataloging rules will affect libraries’ OPACs, non-cataloging library staff, and library patrons.

Beyond MARC: BIBFRAME and the Future of Bibliographic DataEmily Nimsakont
The Bibliographic Framework Initiative, or BIBFRAME, is intended to provide a replacement to the MARC format as an encoding standard for library catalogs. Its aim is to move library data into a Linked Data format, allowing it to interact with other data on the Web. In this session, Emily Nimsakont, the NLC’s Cataloging Librarian, will cover the basics of BIBFRAME, describe what it can provide for users of library catalogs that MARC can’t, and outline what librarians should be aware of regarding this change in the cataloging landscape.

2013 CrossRef Annual Meeting Building Skyscrapers With Our Scholarship Heathe...Crossref
We're facing a new era in scholarly communication: eager postdocs, well-funded PIs, ambitious entrepreneurs, and curious kids with computers are trying to build here-to-fore impossible systems on top of the research literature. How will this change the skyline of research? What works now to support these structures, what challenges exist, and what infrastructure is still needed? Dr Heather Piwowar will share the dreams, blueprints, and experiences of developers working to build skyscrapers with our scholarship. - See more at: http://www.crossref.org/annualmeeting/agenda.html#sthash.K3DSPG1s.dpuf

It's not what you've got, it's how you use it...ePortfolios in actionHazel Owen
This session around ePortfolios will briefly consider the 'why' for learners and teachers, explore what is already working (for teachers with learners, and teachers as learners), and finally explore a couple of options of possible ePortfolio platforms, including Web 2.0 and Mahara.
Philosophically, I am a strong advocate of the potential of Web 2.0 to empower learners from all walks of life and cultures, especially after my experiences working for 6 years in the Middle East. In particular, I am interested how ePortfolios can be used in education (especially where Literacy and Language challenges are faced), in Recognition of Prior Learning, and in authentic, applied assessment.
Just to give people who may be interested in this session some background to what I feel the potential of ePortfolios to be this is a recording of a keynote I gave in Australia last year -http://ictenhancedlearning.blip.tv/file/2751810/.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
