This document discusses the future of collection development policies in libraries. It notes that the changing format of materials from print to electronic requires libraries to rethink their policies. New modes of acquisition like patron-driven acquisition and purchase-on-demand are becoming more common. Tools like WorldCat Collection Analysis can help libraries assess their collections, identify gaps, and prioritize acquisitions. Overall, the document questions whether traditional models like the conspectus still apply and calls for libraries to potentially make major changes or tweaks to their collection development policies to adapt to the current environment.
For several years, SUNY Potsdam has been struggling to design a better budget allocation model for library collections. In the past, the formula we used for allocating funds seemed to be equitable, but in reality it was not the best approach. Our “New Budget Model” focuses on supporting the research projects assigned to students rather than what librarians and faculty think ought to be in a “good college library”. While the new model continues to be a work in progress, we have learned a lot about faculty perceptions and have had opportunities to share our ideas about the changing nature of academic library collections and services.

How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?

Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

Have you ever been confused by the myriad of choices offered by AWS for hosting a website or an API?
Lambda, Elastic Beanstalk, Lightsail, Amplify, S3 (and more!) can each host websites + APIs. But which one should we choose?
Which one is cheapest? Which one is fastest? Which one will scale to meet our needs?
Join me in this session as we dive into each AWS hosting service to determine which one is best for your scenario and explain why!

Reading List Mashup using Yahoo Pipes
1. Mashing Reading Lists Using resources you’ve got to suggest something new (a work in progress by a mash-up dabbler) Edith Speller Librarian (Systems and User Education) Trinity College of Music espeller@tcm.ac.uk @wiilassie
2. In 15 minutes... The problem The solution Getting between the two (with the help oftalented Mash Oop North participants) The reaction..?
3. The problem Module reading lists too static; getting out-of-date University validating our courses advised revision We wanted to give academic staff a ‘helping hand’ with locating relevant material (and increase use of expensive subscriptions!)
4. The solution A tool which examines current reading list items, extracts subject terms and creates suggested searches for a relevant database (RILM) Available at http://bit.ly/tcmlists(RSS feeds from http://bit.ly/tcmrss) Constructed using Yahoo Pipes in a few hours
5. From problem to solution Ask for help! You never know who’s listening Plan the mashup: Input (data sources) Output (what you want at the end) ...Magic! Figure out which tools to use to get hold of/manipulate the data Get mashing! (getting from one to the other)
7. The reaction..? Not yet known... Demoing the tool with academic faculty next week (meeting postponed from September) Wish me luck!
8. Other possibilities Use ISBN of book on current reading list to look up ‘people who bought this also bought that’ recommendations using Amazon webservice; Use the Mosaic API to: do an ISBN lookup to find the courses associated with people who have borrowed that book; use the course codes to look up what other books were borrowed by people on those courses. Both ideas written by Tony Hirst (thanks!) – any takers?
9. Questions? Thanks to other Mash Oop North team members: Owen Stephens, Fiona Bradley, Nicole Harris and Chris Langham Edith Speller Librarian (Systems and User Education) Trinity College of Music espeller@tcm.ac.uk @wiilassie
Editor's Notes
Going to talk about a tool which was started at the Mashed Library event in July in Huddersfield during the free afternoon session. I’m talking from perspective of a dabbler – I am interested in coding, mashups and so on but don’t have the time to dedicate to them to become expert. Instead I play around with things when I get the opportunity, and the Mashlib events are great for this.
This is what I aim to cover in the next 15 minutes.
Our college has externally validated degrees, and this year its courses were revalidated by a new university. The uni commented that the reading lists were a bit out of date and could do with revision (familiar?). We particularly want to encourage the use of our journal subscriptions when revising the reading lists. I thought it would be good to give our academics a starting point by analysing each course’s existing reading list and using the content to generate suggested searches.
RILM is a great database which abstracts music literature – ideal for my college.Give it a go! (felt that as this is my first talk, and only 15 min long, a live demo was a Bad Idea!).
These are the stages we went through on the day to create the tool. Input = reading list data – I knew I could get this in a rudimentary RSS format from my library’s catalogue, but hadn’t yet done the custom work required. However I had set up feeds for new items, including one for new books, so we chose to use this as a proof of concept.Output = We scaled this back – originally a list of results from carrying out suggested searches, we decided instead to provide a list of suggested searches which the user can click on to execute.Magic = the tricky bit! We decided Yahoo Pipes would allow us to manipulate the data.
Not going into too much detail – Tony will demo Pipes later!Pictured is the Keywords pipe: Fetch feed from entered URL Regex: Use a regularexpression (eek!) to extract the subject Unique/Sort/Truncate: Get the top 3 subjects by filtering non-unique items, which adds a count of how many times each subject appears, then sorting and snipping off the top 3. Sub-element/Create RSS:Make the subject terms into a new RSS feed RILM pipe (not pictured): Takes in output of the keywords pipe, reformatsdata, then builds the search URLs using the cleaned search terms.Output – three-item RSS feed with the title ‘Search RILM for x’, linking to the search URL. Could build more pipes: use subjects to create searches for other resources.
Next weekI’m giving a half-hour training session to academic staff on revising reading lists, covering searching relevant literature indexes, current awareness etc, so that’s when I’ll see what the target audience think of the tool. Wish me luck!
Here’s some other ideas for utilising existing reading lists - thanks to Tony Hirst who commented with these ideas after I blogged about the tool.
