Defining collections and creating their descriptionsValentine Charles
The document discusses the importance of defining and describing collections in libraries. It notes that while digitization efforts have increased access to some materials, only a small percentage of total holdings have been digitized. Creating collection descriptions can help provide context and improve discovery of both digitized and non-digitized materials. Collection descriptions are useful for several purposes, such as increasing visibility of special collections, creating curated topic-based corpora, and aiding in search relevance. They also help in managing collections over time and addressing gaps. The document raises questions about what collections libraries have and whether they have structured descriptions to share.

Estermann Wikidata and Heritage Data 20170914Beat Estermann
This document discusses Wikidata and cultural heritage data. It aims to establish Wikidata as a central hub for cultural heritage data by ingesting related data and enhancing it. Key challenges include getting institutions to provide open data, assisting with data scraping, addressing coverage biases, mapping data models during ingestion, and dealing with incorrect data. Maintaining data quality over time through processes like updating and dispute resolution is also challenging. The document explores how Wikidata can better integrate with other databases and cultural heritage organizations to maximize data sharing and reuse.
The document discusses the International Image Interoperability Framework (IIIF). It describes IIIF as a set of common APIs that allow images and image-based resources hosted in different repositories to be accessed and displayed interoperably. It outlines the benefits of IIIF for users, such as fast delivery of zoomable images and ability to annotate and compare images across repositories. It then provides details on the key IIIF APIs - the Image API for retrieving images, and the Presentation API for describing image-based objects and their structure.
This document summarizes funding opportunities and initiatives from the European Commission related to cultural heritage and the digital economy. It outlines recommendations and directives on digitizing cultural works. Major funding programs mentioned include Horizon 2020, which allocates €12.5 billion to ICT research, and the Connecting Europe Facility, which provides €1 billion for digital infrastructure projects like Europeana. Specific calls are noted that provide funding for areas like virtual museums, increasing access to cultural works, and boosting collaboration between artists and technologists.
ATIS4All and ETNA are 2 EU Thematic Networks led by Technosite and ETNA respectively that have been ‘clustered’ by the EU. Together they aim to establish a reference community portal, “ATIS4all collaborative portal”, offering reliable information on ICT ATs, and R&D initiatives. The Portal will allow users to search for information on specific ICT-base AT products, open source projects or services and share their opinion
and experience. User profiles personalise the information making it more useful to the different portal users. ATIS4all will provide the community portal and ETNA a search engine to locate information from diverse national databases.
The 2 broad categories of ‘user’ and ‘developer’ are supported via 3
sections
- Market place community: An online meeting point for users, providers and key actors interested in the field of ICT ATs, inclusive solutions and related services.
- R&D community: An online meeting point for portal users and key actors interested in R&D and cutting edge technologies applied to them.
- Key actors section: A tool to find organizations relevant in thefield.
For the UK this will provide access to knowledge of a wider range of
AT products and projects. It will reduce duplication of work between
countries and foster sharing and collaboration. Users, service
providers and developers can hope to reduce costs and become more
efficient.

This document summarizes the work of Digisam, a Swedish coordination secretariat for digital preservation. Digisam aims to 1) make recommendations for coordinated management of digital collections, 2) develop proposals for long-term digital preservation, and 3) define roles for aggregating, accessing, and preserving digital cultural heritage. It notes different types of digital information held by archives, libraries, and museums in Sweden and the need for common best practices and standards. A pilot study examined current digital preservation practices and identified a need for a common solution to manage all processes, given the large volumes of digital cultural heritage and lack of efficient long-term preservation currently.
The document discusses the collection and storage of digital cartographic data by libraries in Utrecht. It covers: (1) the various forms digital cartographic data can take, such as maps from the internet, digitized maps, and cartographic databases; (2) how Utrecht archives and makes accessible this growing virtual collection, through centralized storage and remote access including in the map library; and (3) challenges around accessibility due to the large volume of data and legal implications, and potential future solutions through increased cooperation and cataloguing at a national or international level.

This document discusses challenges and opportunities for linked open data in cultural heritage institutions. It summarizes that while many institutions have digitized collections and data, their "digital mindset" and outdated systems have limited data sharing and reuse. The document outlines recent and ongoing projects by PACKED to address this, such as developing tools to publish structured data on Wikimedia platforms, and a "datahub" and "resolver tool" to facilitate internal data management and linking to external references. Next steps include expanding these projects and conducting a survey to understand demand for cultural heritage data. The overall aim is to make institutions' data and collections more accessible and reusable on the web.
The document discusses the Datahub project, which aims to create a shared datahub architecture for museums in Flanders to store and provide access to their collection data. The goals of the project are to lower barriers for museums to connect their data to modern technologies, make data more flexible and reusable, and improve accessibility of museum data. The project will develop an open source datahub framework and deploy a reference implementation in three Flemish art museums in Phase 1 from 2016-2017. Phase 2 will expand the community and integrate four contemporary art museums. The datahub will store collection metadata and make it available through APIs and other technologies to enable new uses of the data.
This document discusses making data and software reusable according to FAIR principles. It provides examples of documenting cultural heritage projects in ways that could enable computer and human reuse of the data. These include publishing technical reports and data online with metadata, attributions and licenses. The document advocates planning for potential reuse when initially collecting and structuring data. This would help share data and knowledge with other researchers and systems in the future.
The document summarizes Collections Trust and EC-funded Europeana Inside project. The project aimed to support the Digital Agenda for Europe by increasing the quantity, scope, and usability of data available to Europeana from European cultural institutions. It involved 26 participants from 10 countries who developed the Europeana Connection Kit, an open-source software toolbox, to simplify contributing data to Europeana and help overcome participation barriers. Over 30 months, the project added 960,000 records to Europeana through an iterative development and testing process.
International Image Interoperability Framework (IIIF). Sharing high resolutio...LIBIS
On Moday April 23th 2018 Roxanne Wyns (LIBIS - KU Leuven Libraries) gave a lecture at the University of Antwerp for Digital Humanities students and researchers. IIIF or the International Image Interoperability Framework is a community-developed framework for sharing high-resolution images in an efficient and standardized way across institutional boundaries. Using an IIIF manifest URL, a researcher can pull image based resources and related contextual information such as the structure of a complex object or document, metadata and rights information into any IIIF compliant viewer such as the Mirador viewer. Simply put, a researcher can access high resolution images from the British Library and from the KU Leuven Libraries in a single viewer for research. This lecture will introduce IIIF and its concepts, highlight projects and viewers, and give an in-depth view of its current and future application options for DH research.

Hoe bepaal je welke delen van je collectie niet auteursrechtelijk beschermd zijn, en dus tot publiek domein behoren? Wat zijn mogelijke uitdagingen bij de bepaling van de publiekdomeinstatus? Wat kun je doen met collecties die zich in het publieke domein bevinden? Hoe kun je ze toegankelijk en herbruikbaar maken en wat levert dat op? Deze en nog veel meer vragen beantwoordden we tijdens deze sessie.
Presentatie van de namiddagsessie "Bevindingen uit het vooronderzoek naar een uitwisselplatform" tijdens meemoo's partnerevent op 30 november 2023.
Een professioneel uitwisselplatform zou het hergebruik van jouw archiefmateriaal extra kunnen stimuleren bij professionals uit de erfgoed-, media- en creatieve sector en de valorisatie ervan bevorderen over instellingen en sectoren heen. Je kwam er al even mee in aanraking door de bevraging aan contentpartners vorige zomer. Aangezien die bevraging maar een klein onderdeel was van een veel breder vooronderzoek, was het tijd om de belangrijkste resultaten en inzichten met jou te delen.

Een van de grootste uitdagingen in een digitaliseringsproject is het bepalen en controleren van de kwaliteit van je resultaten. Wanneer en hoe bouw je dit in? Doet de Metamorfoze-richtlijn misschien een belletje rinkelen? Hoorde je al over RIPT, QM-tool en ‘targets’? Tijdens deze sessie kwam je te weten wat deze richtlijnen, standaarden en tools voor jouw digitaliseringsproces kunnen betekenen! We deelden graag onze ervaring met kwaliteitscontrole in de GIVE-projecten én gaven plaats voor het uitwisselen van eigen ervaringen en ideeën.
Presentatie namiddagsessie "GIVE-metadata: over verrijking via artificiële intelligentie" tijdens meemoo's partnerevent op 30 november 2023.

Goed voor een heleboel nieuwe metadata! In anderhalf uur ontdekte je hoe die metadataverrijking via AI juist verliep en welke resultaten dat opleverde.
Public Domain Day in Belgium celebrated works that entered the public domain in 2023. Several institutions showcased how they uploaded public domain collections in 2022 and 2023, including the Passchendaele Museum which shared experiences from an upload workshop and the Agentschap Onroerend Erfgoed which highlighted architectural drawings. Other showcases were from the KBR on their Public Domain Day uploads and Europeana's findings from five years of their Open GLAM survey on sharing cultural heritage collections. The event advocated for better sharing of cultural heritage in the public domain.

Good morning and welcome back to Energy Source, coming to you from New York, where the city swelters in its first heatwave of the season.
Nearly 80 million people were under alerts in the US north-east and midwest yesterday as temperatures in some municipalities reached record highs in a test to the country’s rickety power grid.
In other news, the Financial Times has a new Big Read this morning on Russia’s grip on nuclear power. Despite sanctions on its economy, the Kremlin continues to be an unrivalled exporter of nuclear power plants, building more than half of all reactors under construction globally. Read how Moscow is using these projects to wield global influence.
Today’s Energy Source dives into the latest Statistical Review of World Energy, the industry’s annual stocktake of global energy consumption. The report was published for more than 70 years by BP before it was passed over to the Energy Institute last year. The oil major remains a contributor.
Data Drill looks at a new analysis from the World Bank showing gas flaring is at a four-year high.

New report offers sobering view of the energy transition
Every year the Statistical Review of World Energy offers a behemoth of data on the state of the global energy market. This year’s findings highlight the world’s insatiable demand for energy and the need to speed up the pace of decarbonisation.
Here are our four main takeaways from this year’s report:
Fossil fuel consumption — and emissions — are at record highs
Countries burnt record amounts of oil and coal last year, sending global fossil fuel consumption and emissions to all-time highs, the Energy Institute reported. Oil demand grew 2.6 per cent, surpassing 100mn barrels per day for the first time.
Meanwhile, the share of fossil fuels in the energy mix declined slightly by half a percentage point, but still made up more than 81 per cent of consumption.

information via a permanent and a stable
channel
- Problem 1: Aggregators and Linkrot (duh!)
- Problem 2: Unambiguous identification of
things online
Solution: Persistent URI
4.
5. Conditions
- small/medium art collections
- different partners collect data
on the same objects
- no IT knowledge in the
institutions
- different old collection
management systems managed
on the state level
- no PID service on the
regional/national level

7. Centralized or decentralized approach?
“Museums are the sole authority … for establishing globally unique and persistent identities
(URIs) for each of the objects in their collections”
> Statement on Linked Data identifiers for museum objects, CIDOC, 2012.
- No centralized PID service provider in Flanders
- No one who would want to take up that responsibility
- Some big institutions (universities, libraries, aggregators) have their own PID-service as a part of their
registration system. Some examples:
- Information Flanders has PIDs for the government
- University of Antwerp Brocade: http://anet.be/isadtree/kmska/opackmskaisad/isad:kmska:223
- University of Ghent Library catalogue https://lib.ugent.be/catalog/rug01:000351700
- Erfgoedplus heritage aggregator: http://www.erfgoedplus.be/details/24062A51.priref.103

8. What needs to be identified with PIDs?
Principle 1. Differentiate between identification of real-life objects and
identification of data about them.
9. What needs to be identified with PIDs?
Principle 2. Identify objects in your collection yourself and reuse
existing PIDs to identify (refer) to things outside of your collection
10. Syntax of the persistent URI’s?
http(s):// {domain} / {type object} / {type resource} / {identification number} / {parameter}
https://museum.be/work/id/BK3758/xml
- http(s):// protocol
- human readable - not just some ‘IT thing’
- domain of the museum - trustworthy source of information, brand
- reuse existing inventory numbers - recognizable and stable

11. A tool for managing PIDs?
> decentralized approach
> no tool/service to manage the PIDs
> our own open source tool for small/medium
institutions (version 1: 2014 - 2017)
Resolver
https://github.com/PACKED-vzw/resolver
- resolves from persistent URI to an
existing webadres or other
- spreadsheet import/export option
- statistics
- not supported anymore
12. A PIDs manager in the institution?
What will ensure the persistency?
- managing persistent URI’s: a job for collection
managers (with support of IT)
- PIDs should be registered in the collection
mgmt systems
- workshops to explain Resolver to collection
managers
13. Distribution of PIDs online
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Flemish_art_collections,_Wikidata_and_Linked_Open_Data
15. 2017: soul searching
- Persistent URI’s are there and they are working
But…
- No digital mindset in the partner-institutions
- The PIDs story is ‘too technical’
- Project funds until 2016 > no more updates and bugs fixing for the Resolver
- Persistency is seriously at stake
New chapter:
- Need of an even more simple story and tool
- Need of a new technical approach for the tool
- Need for a new governance model and a bigger community around the open source tool
16. What is cultURIze?
Culturize is a tool for museum administrators to gather and share
information about their collection in a sustainable way.
Who needs CultURIze?
Registrars, curators and managers of small or medium cultural heritage
collections.
https://github.com/PACKED-vzw/CultURIze
https://github.com/PACKED-vzw/CultURIze/wiki
- prototype developed during Open Summer of code 2018 in Belgium
- inspired by W3id on Github
17. How does it work?
CultURIze is four-step process to create a persistent URI for a collection
item on the web:
- Record persistent URI's and the corresponding webresources in a
spreadsheet
- Turn the spreadsheet in a server configuration file
- Upload the file to a code sharing platform
- Periodically update your webserver to activate the persistent
URI's.
CSV-file
cultURIze app
Github repo
Webserver
18. Where do I start?
> Define the domain and numbering scheme for your persistent URIs.
> Set up a webserver.
> Set up a code repository and link it to your webserver.
> Record the persistent URI’s in a spreadsheet.
> Download and install the desktop application and use it to turn your
spreadsheet in an server configuration file and push it to your Github
repository.
> The repo will automatically update the URI’s on the webserver.
> Repeat step 4 and 5 every time you add a persistent URI or change a
URL.
19. Governance and contribution
- An open-source project
- How to generate financial means and create a community of
developers around the CultURIze?
> 2019: Research on a sustainable governance model for
the CultURIze project < input is very welkom!
20. PIDs in the cultural heritage sector:
- Heritage institutions are responsible for identification of their collections online
- Decentralized buttom-up approach in a specific context
- Identification of artworks vs. identification of data about them
- Human readable syntax for persistent URI’s
- Persistency of the URI’s is dependent on the engagement of the museum
- Open source tool for persistent URI’s needs a good governance model (HELP!)
