Promises and Pitfalls: Linked Data, Privacy, and Library CatalogsEmily Nimsakont
This document discusses the promises and pitfalls of using linked data in library catalogs. It begins by explaining what linked data is and how it makes relationships between data explicit. Linked data initiatives like BIBFRAME aim to apply these concepts to library metadata. However, privacy is a major concern since linked data allows for more aggressive exploration of personal information. The document discusses libraries' role in protecting user privacy and explores solutions like privacy preference ontologies and standards from the W3C. Overall, while linked data holds benefits, ensuring user privacy will be an ongoing challenge for libraries to address.
The document discusses ten trends in education: assessment for learning, literacy and numeracy, positive psychology, data and student progress, scientific management, outdoor education, parental engagement, enterprise education, professional development, and scholarship. It then provides more detail on assessment for learning, outlining its key factors that improve learning through assessment: the curriculum, assessment, differentiation, and evaluation.
This document contains summaries of multiple rezoning and development applications submitted to the Community Development department, including rezoning applications for properties looking to change their zoning bylaw and development applications that include preliminary site plans, conceptual elevations for senior housing and cultural buildings, and renovations to a community hall.

Let's Talk About RDA: RDA Resources - NLA/NEMA 2011Emily Nimsakont
This document provides an extensive list of online resources for learning about Resource Description and Access (RDA), including reports from the RDA test, materials from the Library of Congress, webinars and presentations, the RDA Toolkit, FRBR resources, places for discussion, and print resources on RDA and related topics such as FRBR. It aims to be a one-stop-shop for librarians and catalogers to find information about implementing RDA and transitioning to the new cataloging standard.

The document discusses how information and technology are transforming our world. It describes how information has become highly addictive due to apps and social media, and how this affects control and engagement. It suggests we are moving from an atomic to a digital world where data is the new oil and everything is connected in real-time. New interfaces like brain-computer interfaces and skin interfaces will become more common as technology extends human capabilities. The conclusion is that people are increasingly people of the screen and that businesses need to innovate and experiment with emerging technologies.
This document discusses various future-oriented topics and teams including future meeting points, counseling, activities, and teams. It also references music by Cedi titled "Courage Song".
The document contains rules and advice for respectful behavior from students in Room 13, such as not being greedy, sharing with friends, putting rubbish in bins, helping sad people, being kind to others, taking turns, opening doors, being nice to friends, not hitting others, saying hello, working hard, helping hurt people, walking and not running, playing nicely without leaving others out, using please and thank you, being friends, and using manners.
Metadata Manipulation: Using MarcEdit and OpenRefine to Enhance Technical Ser...Emily Nimsakont
The document discusses two tools, MarcEdit and Open Refine, that can be used to enhance metadata workflows in technical services. It provides an overview of the key features of each tool, including their abilities to batch edit records, extract fields, merge records, and clean up inconsistencies for MarcEdit, and separate multiple values, analyze field distributions, and enable linked data applications for Open Refine. The presentation was given by Emily Dust Nimsakont of the Nebraska Library Commission at the NLA/NSLA Annual Conference on October 9, 2014.
A leader guides a team toward a common goal by example, creating an environment where team members are actively involved. To lead effectively, a leader cannot be aloof and must lend a helping hand so their work is clearly understood. Passion and enthusiasm inspire others, though a leader need not be constantly cheery - they must believe in the team's work. Organization is also key, as a disorganized leader breeds disorganization in the team. A leader must communicate goals precisely, provide constructive feedback, and celebrate successes to affirm the team. Effective listening and understanding team members enables a leader to better respond and motivate their team.
Jarrod feels strange noises and activities in his house at night and believes it may be haunted. He tells his brother Ryan and friend Jack about it. Their parents eventually call a ghost hunting company called Ghost Hunters to investigate. The team, led by Brandon, arrives and hears an unexplained crash. They introduce themselves to Jarrod and his brother. The team brings equipment to investigate while Jarrod, Ryan, Jack and their friend Cody help out.
Baseball hitters face many challenges at the plate. They must have excellent hand-eye coordination to track and make contact with a fast-moving baseball thrown by a pitcher. Hitters also need mental discipline and focus to recognize different pitch types and locations in a fraction of a second to determine whether to swing. Being a successful hitter requires years of practice and experience to consistently get hits against the best pitchers in professional baseball.

The document discusses trends in technology and society. It notes that technology is accelerating social change and that people are now in control through social media and real-time communication. Data has become a valuable commodity, and privacy issues are increasingly important. The future will involve a transition from physical "atoms" to digital "bits." Social graphs and interest graphs are becoming more important on the evolving web. Big data and understanding the future will rely on gaining wisdom from information. Our tools increasingly shape us, and the brain is adapting to new technologies.

Tony Okotie gave a presentation on leadership to a charity networking event. He discussed that current leadership challenges include doing more with less resources amid austerity cuts. Good leadership means understanding and responding well to challenges by collaborating with others, having a vision and strategy, and celebrating successes. It requires qualities like positivity, humility, and making difficult decisions for the good of the organization. Leaders must have support networks and be willing to admit mistakes while continuing to learn and develop.
The document discusses big data and its implications. It notes that the amount of data created every few days now exceeds what was created from the dawn of civilization until 2003. It also discusses the three V's that define big data: volume, velocity and variety. The document outlines both the potential of big data, including enabling new forms of measurement and powering the next industrial revolution, as well as business opportunities it creates, such as using social analytics to predict customer behavior. It concludes by noting that the information revolution lacked an instruction manual and that accelerated change is the only constant.
The document summarizes the views of Sinclair Rogers, a former president of Exodus International, on the topic of homosexuality. Rogers believes that homosexuality is a learned behavior influenced by disrupted family life and a lack of unconditional love from parents in one's early years. He also asserts that homosexuality is a choice involving indulging homosexual fantasies or engaging in gay sex. The document outlines Rogers' view that attraction can be divided into split-second attraction to strangers or direct attraction to people one knows personally.
