Public libraries in The Netherlands: a powerful networkFers
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.
Keywords: innovation, collaboration, Communities of Practice, network

FryskLab - Education, innovation and maker culture in the libraryFers
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.

Making cultural content available for everyone via mass digitisation is still a challenge for the European ALM (Archives, libraries and museums) sector. Most European memory institutions intend to digitise their whole collection and develop projects for the attractive presentation of their online available electronic content.
The creative industry expects content that is ready for remix and reuse even for business purposes. Based on the experiences of the meetings of Member States Expert Group on Digitisation and Digital Preservation the lecture will summarize the main factors that challenge the realization of this aim and outline possible solutions.
I will present the business needs (what creative reuse means), the legal barriers (how existing copyright rules make creative reuse difficult), the memory institutions’ perspective and some landmark projects from all over Europe that makes it clear that there is a light at the end of the tunnel!
Digitisation initiatives began due to long term preservation concerns. Questions concerning their impact have now come to the fore: “The measurable outcomes arising from the existence of a digital resource that demonstrate a change in the life or life opportunities of the community for which the resource is intended.” Jewish and Israeli digital resources can now be enhanced with relevant encyclopedias and controlled vocabularies through a LOD approach. The resulting knowledge grid can help bridge the gap between the digital resources and the knowledge of the intended communities of users. It will expand their application in narratives, scholarly research, higher education, K12, cultural tourism, genealogy and more.

0x01 - Newton's Third Law: Static vs. Dynamic AbusersOWASP Beja
f you offer a service on the web, odds are that someone will abuse it. Be it an API, a SaaS, a PaaS, or even a static website, someone somewhere will try to figure out a way to use it to their own needs. In this talk we'll compare measures that are effective against static attackers and how to battle a dynamic attacker who adapts to your counter-measures.

Shaping the future of
education
with cultural heritage
6. “There is a wealth of digital heritage available online. World
renowned galleries, archives, museums and libraries provide
online access to their collections, and many local initiatives make
digital heritage more widely available. As access to the internet
improves, and more people own smartphones and other similar
devices, these collections can be accessed online by students and
educators with fewer and fewer technological barriers. So far,
however, this has failed to lead to the improvements in
education you might expect.”

● Incorporate DSI-based services for heritage into Europeana DSI: for
its own sake and the sake of smaller practitioners and projects
103. Role for Europeana and Invitation to NTEU
We are very pleased to invite Europeana into NTEU User Group in
order to integrate language technologies and policies into the project.
NTEU is a newly started CEF project that will build 506 translation
engines in all EU languages but English, providing training data into
low-resourced and medium-resourced languages. Having Europeana
as an interest party in our User Group would allow both Europeana
and NTEU Consortium to evaluate the quality of engines as developed
for Public Administrations, and for Europeana to make use of other
DSI developments, as well as integrate their services into the
platform.
We look forward to working together with Europeana and make it
fully multilingual and improve accessibility and promoting cultural
assets across the EU's languages.

Crowdsourced and User Generated Content:
• Brings into light new insights related to historical Events (e.g.Europeana
1914-1918, Europeana 1989)
• Typically lacks of rich and standardized descriptive metadata
Goals:
• Facilitate access to information „hidden“ in scanned
manuscripts
• Enrich document descriptions with contextual information
Wikidata Places and Persons; keywords/topics
• Enhance user experience by integrating state of the
art technologies (e.g. IIIF, NERL)
107. THE BEAUTY OF HISTORICAL MANUSCRIPTS
10728.11.2019
• Letters and Journals present the life and the emotions
of regular people
• Often indicate facts, that were not written
in history books
• They catch attention and motivate user‘s to interact
with the content
108. …. AND THE CHALLENGES
10828.11.2019
• Historical documents are hardly understood with the passing of time:
• Grammar and words of all languages are changing in time
• Simple people use dialects
• Preserve the language and the writing from their time
Translation original text Translation improved version

128. For example, for object metadata
Usage scenarios Proposal Outcome
• Display object metadata on item page
• Navigate to entities
• Input to search index
• Automated identification of metadata
language if needed
• Use translations from multilingual
knowledge graph (which results in an
index in the languages of the
knowledge graph)
• Augment the provider metadata with
static translation of the fields to English
(to fill metadata values not covered by
the knowledge graph)
• Store and index translated metadata
for search and display
• Item page metadata would display in
chosen language if knowledge graph
translations were present
• Where chosen language is not
supported, display will default to source
language and offer option to view in
English
• Multilingual search would be
supported for fields that are connected
to the knowledge graph translations,
and for other fields by using static
English translations that act as a lingua
franca for search

We used queries for
the Europeana
1914-1918 thematic
collection
Translations brings
more results in, but
some are dubious
NB: we didn't have time
to do a fine-grained
evaluation of the
accuracy of results
144. We evaluated translation of non-English
queries (69)
● In 22 cases the input was wrong - typos or wrong
language (einsenbahn in French?)
● In 4 cases we couldn't guess the user's intention
(avion on the Italian portal)
● eTranslation correctly handled 20 of 37 queries that
were to be left unchanged (54%)
● eTranslation correctly translated 5 of the 6
remaining cases (83%).

147. ● Cultural heritage stretches across many dimensions
Languages, domains, genres, periods, …
● It is a particularly interesting and demanding area for machine translation
● Approaches involve new information sources, refinement of tools and methods

150. eTranslation welcomes datasets from the culture heritage sector
● Multilingual (and monolingual) datasets help tune the service for
cultural texts
● CH is under-represented in the training resources so far
Contributions can be made directly on the ELRC-SHARE portal (see
guidance)
151. ● Better evaluate accuracy of search results
● Scale up & extend to metadata
● Evaluate the efficiency of cross-lingual search
● Better handle named entities, language identification
● Decide if query translation is really the way to go...
152. ● Give feedback on the proposals
for improving Europeana’s
multilingual aspects, before
January 15
● Contribute (multilingual) training
data to enhance the EC’s

Evaluation FAIRness
158. Improving reusability
➢ FAIR principles aim to facilitate the reuse of research data,
which is the final goal of FAIRness
➢ So, FAIRness is a means to an end, not a goal in itself
➢ The designers of the FAIR principles stress that “FAIR is a
journey”, helping researchers to understand what they can
do to increase reusability of their data .
159. The benefits for main stakeholders
➢ To give data providers (creators and publishers)
recommendations on how to improve and make their data
more reusable
➢ To give funding agencies an instrument to verify that
funded projects deliver reusable data
160. Enable comparison across evaluation approaches
➢ There are many evaluation approaches (questionnaires,
some automated tools), but they are not comparable
➢ RDA Working Group aims to harmonise approaches through
a core set of common criteria (indicators)
➢ The aim is to reach consensus among evaluators, supported
by guidelines on how to apply the indicators
RDA FAIR Data Maturity Model Working Group:
https://www.rd-alliance.org/groups/fair-data-maturity-model-wg
161. Most aspects already taken care of
➢ Persistent identifiers
○ Metadata: http://data.europeana.eu/item/DATASET_ID/LOCAL_ID
○ Digital objects: (not yet covered)
➢ Rich metadata: Europeana Data Model
➢ Controlled vocabularies: DBpedia, Geonames, Getty etc.
➢ Licensing: Europeana Licensing Framework
162. FAIR requirements
➢ European Commission will set minimum level of FAIRness
➢ At proposal stage: describe how FAIRness will be achieved
○ Data Management Plan
○ State how project will meet the core criteria
➢ At execution stage: review of FAIRness by evaluating the
data against the core criteria
163. To better meet the requirements
➢ Analyse the Europeana Publishing Framework against FAIR
principles, adapt where necessary (e.g. persistent identifiers
for data and digital objects)
➢ Think from the perspective of potential reusers, including
researchers beyond Europeana and cultural domain
➢ Facilitate the widest possible reuse of cultural material
