From 0 to 400 GB: Confronting the Challenges of Born-Digital Photographs
Panel session at the Society of American Archivists 2016 annual meeting in Atlanta, Georgia, with Ed Busch (Michigan State University), Chris Prom (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign), Molly Tighe (Chatham University), and Greg Wiedeman (SUNY Albany).
It will happen to you, if it hasn't already: the campus photographer retires and leaves behind hundreds of photo CDs or a hard drive packed with JPEGs. What happens next? Digital photograph collections present serious challenges but offer opportunities to leverage automation (from deduplication to face recognition) and collaborative, cross-departmental workflows. Come hear this panel of experienced archivists discuss steps taken, lessons learned, and best practices developed for working (and teaching!) with born-digital photographs.

Presentation given with Linda Ballinger, Doreva Belfiore, Bill Fee, and Leanne Finnegan at the Pennsylvania Library Association's 2015 annual meeting in State College, PA.
Abstract: Several Pennsylvania libraries, museums, and cultural heritage organizations have been collaborating to explore ways to make Pennsylvania‘s digital collections widely and freely available in the Digital Public Library of America (DPLA). DPLA brings together millions of items and makes them findable in innovative ways, including timelines, maps, and more. The magic behind these searches is your metadata. It doesn’t have to perfect, but there are ways to make it play well in DPLA and across the web. This session will offer best practices for metadata cleanup and enhancement, with a focus on preparing one’s digital collections for contribution to DPLA.

Joint presentation with Sheli McHugh at the February 27, 2014 University of Scranton IT Forum.
Throughout the Weinberg Memorial Library’s 20th Anniversary celebration in 2012-2013, Dean Charles Kratz reflected on the idea of looking back while also looking forward, preserving the history and heritage of the University while also sustaining and advancing innovative research, teaching, and learning at the University. To fulfill this dual role, the Library has collaborated extensively with Information Resources on technology tools, from hardware and software to wiring and wireless infrastructure. In this presentation, Learning Commons Coordinator Sheli McHugh will discuss the ongoing development of the technology-rich Reilly Learning Commons (scheduled to open in Fall 2014), while Digital Services Librarian Kristen Yarmey will share the Library's progress and long-term plans for capturing, preserving, and providing access to born digital resources, such as University records, publications, and web pages, as well as digitized materials from the Library's Archives and Special Collections.
Capture All the URLS: First Steps in Web Archiving
Presentation with Judy Silva (Fine & Performing Arts Librarian and Archivist at Slippery Rock University) and Alexis Antracoli (Records Management archivist at Drexel University) at the Pennsylvania Library Association's 2013 annual conference in Seven Springs, Pennsylvania.
Abstract: As higher education embraces new technologies, teaching, learning, research, and record-keeping is increasingly taking place on university websites, on university-related social media pages, and elsewhere on the open web. This dynamic digital content, however, is highly vulnerable to degradation and loss. This session will introduce the concept of web archiving and articulate why it’s important for colleges and universities. Speakers will demonstrate web archiving service Archive-It and then share lessons learned from their institutions’ web archiving initiatives, from unexpected stumbling blocks to strategies for raising funds and support from campus stakeholders.

Information Literacy in an Age of Algorithms
Presentation for the Pennsylvania Library Association's College & Research Division, as part of the Connect & Communicate series.
As data collection and processing become easier and cheaper, algorithms and information systems are quite literally reshaping our communities. Our students face a radically new information environment in which converging streams of data have unseen and unexpected effects on human attitudes and behavior. How can academic librarians teach students to recognize and remain conscious of the information systems in which they participate? How can we prepare students to be informed citizens in an increasingly complex, data-driven society?

Near Field Communication: Introduction and Implications
Presentation with Sheli McHugh for a virtual learning session with the SLA Nonprofit Section and the Consortium of Foundation Libraries.
Near Field Communication (NFC) is an emerging technology that allows devices and objects to transmit information wirelessly across a small distance. While it has many commercial applications (e.g., using your cell phone as a credit card at the grocery store), NFC could also have future applications for libraries as an intuitive way to derive digital meaning from the physical world. Placing particular attention to the needs of philanthropies, research institutions, and other nonprofit organizations, this presentation will introduce NFC technology and its potential uses in libraries, from frictionless fundraising and information sharing to peer-to-peer loaning and self checkout.

Professors Meier and Yarmey will discuss their students’ project, “Any Victory Would Be Dear.” Groups of students partnered with the Lackawanna Historical Society, Scranton Public Library, and university library to conduct archival research on the Antebellum/Civil War Era, which they then preserved, catalogued, transcribed, digitized, and curated in an online exhibit. Not only did the project allow students to gain professional training and experience, but the Lackawanna Historical Society benefited from free digitization of previously uncatalogued materials now available to the public via the Scranton Public Library website.

Presentation for the 2012 Public Library Association conference in Philadelphia, PA.
A Librarian’s Field Guide to Near Field Communication
Near Field Communication (NFC) is a rising technology that allows mobile devices to exchange information wirelessly across a small distance. While it has many commercial applications
(e.g., using your cell phone as a credit card at the grocery
store), NFC could also have future applications for libraries as a new way to link physical materials with digital information. This presentation will discuss how NFC works; how it’s currently being used by merchants, advertisers, and gamers; and the impact it could have on libraries, librarians, and library patrons.
Presented by: Sheli McHugh, cataloging and metadata librarian, University of Scranton, Pa.; Kristen Yarmey, digital services librarian, University of Scranton, Pa.

https://app.box.com/s/hqnndn05v4q5a4k4jd597rkdbda0fniiEmbracing GenAI - A Strategic Imperative
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation Blue Star - Saka Neela Tara
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
