Robyn Fleming, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Aimee Lind, Getty Research Institute, USA No *ART* Library left behind: cross-border resource sharing among art libraries
This document discusses resource sharing among art libraries in the United States and models for international resource sharing. It provides background on the Thomas J. Watson Library at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and the Getty Research Library in Los Angeles, outlining their histories, collections, and roles in national and international interlibrary loan. The document notes that art libraries have unique users and materials, and that resource sharing is facilitated through OCLC and the SHARES consortium, which allows for efficient borrowing and lending among members, including preferential treatment for sharing between art institutions.
Curators as gatekeepers – Diversity at Art FestivalsVictoria Durrer
Lisa Gaupp, Post Doctoral Researcher, University of Luneburg, analyzes how diversity is being standardized through conventions in the (performing) arts. It takes a look at how different notions of diversity are curated at renowned international (performing) art festivals while analyzing the respective meanings of diversity. Talk held at Intercultural Relations in Arts and Cultural Management Practice, the fourth seminar of an AHRC funded research network, Brokering Intercultural Exchange: Interrogating the Role of Arts and Cultural Management. The network is based at Queen's University Belfast (PI Victoria Durrer) in partnership with Heilbronn University (Co-I Raphaela Henze). www.managingculture.net

Abstract: The aims of this survey is to investigate about topics of library cooperation in NILDE network among university and higher education institutions libraries (geographic countries of ILL-DD exchanges, document delivery methods, payment and processing times, requested items type) and to collect feedback useful to promote NILDE internationalization and to improve NILDE services. The survey target is over 900 NILDE libraries in Italy and abroad (Spanish REBIUN libraries and other foreign libraries participating in NILDE network) and the purpose is a systematic investigation of ILL-DD activities in libraries members of NILDE network. Reflections, conclusions and suggestions were drawn from the data obtained.

The Art Librarian Wears Many Hats: a survey of skills needed for art libraria...Megan Lotts
In the 21st century Art Librarians wear many hats such as, collectors, curators, hardware specialists, programmers, researchers, social media managers, social workers, teachers, technology support, writers, as well as sometimes providing candy and tissues to students, faculty, and staff in times of need. As collection and staff budgets are dwindling, the skill sets of Art Librarians are widely expanding as the field continues to move away from the traditional ideas of subject background, foreign language proficiencies, and professional studies such as cataloging, indexing, and abstracting.
This paper will briefly look at the history of Art Librarianship, discuss the current skill sets needed by Art Librarians in higher education, and provide insight for future students pursuing a career in Art Librarianship. The methodology includes a national survey of art librarian skills sets in the 21st century, as well as a series of one on one interviews with Art Librarians working in college and university libraries.

Student Paintings, Tattoo artists, and Scientists: the Rutgers University Art...Megan Lotts
The Rutgers University Art Library Exhibition Spaces (RALES) were created so that an Art Librarian could more intentionally connect with the departments with whom she is a liaison, and to further engage the local campus communities by elevating the importance of scholarly research happening in the Arts. These spaces also provide an opportunity for student artists, graduate students in librarianships, and organizations putting up their first exhibit, to learn more about what goes into an exhibition, from creation of the work, to the public viewing, marketing, and reception. RALES also provides an opportunity for individuals to view artworks in person, as opposed to studying an image in a book.
In three years this teaching gallery has hosted 38 exhibits by students, faculty, and staff, of Rutgers, as well as a few local and out of state artists. There has been little to no cost in running this gallery space, other than the time. The most impactful aspect of RALES is that is has created a deeper connection to the patrons that the Art Library serves as well as built bridges across the campuses that have introduced the libraries to many new potential partnerships.
This presentation will include a brief review of exhibition spaces in academic libraries as well as a discussion on how gallery spaces can be low cost, easy to coordinate, and create a lasting impact. Audience members will learn more about the physical make up of RALES, examples of exhibits shown in the space, and tips on how one can create their own low cost gallery space. Lastly the author will provide examples for ways to find artist and curators and show a research guide that has been created to archive the spaces.

ALPE (Archivio Licenze dei Periodici Elettronici / e-journals license database) is an Italian co-operative project aiming to improve the understanding of the issues raised by ILL clauses of electronic resources license agreements.
ALPE is designed to collect all clauses of the licence agreements subscribed by the participating universities and research institutes, with the purpose of building a national archive.
ALPE is integrated with NILDE - the Italian service for document exchange -, allows librarians to implement the correct policies for ILL services, leads to the explanation and clarification of the clauses, and at the same time guarantees publishers on the fulfilment of the subscribed agreements.
The paper describes how database was conceived and organised, and details the improvements that it made possible in the ILL service. It also describes the ALPE-NILDE integration and presents the results of data analysis of license permitted uses.

Techniques to optimize the pagerank algorithm usually fall in two categories. One is to try reducing the work per iteration, and the other is to try reducing the number of iterations. These goals are often at odds with one another. Skipping computation on vertices which have already converged has the potential to save iteration time. Skipping in-identical vertices, with the same in-links, helps reduce duplicate computations and thus could help reduce iteration time. Road networks often have chains which can be short-circuited before pagerank computation to improve performance. Final ranks of chain nodes can be easily calculated. This could reduce both the iteration time, and the number of iterations. If a graph has no dangling nodes, pagerank of each strongly connected component can be computed in topological order. This could help reduce the iteration time, no. of iterations, and also enable multi-iteration concurrency in pagerank computation. The combination of all of the above methods is the STICD algorithm. [sticd] For dynamic graphs, unchanged components whose ranks are unaffected can be skipped altogether.

Enhanced Enterprise Intelligence with your personal AI Data Copilot.pdfGetInData
Recently we have observed the rise of open-source Large Language Models (LLMs) that are community-driven or developed by the AI market leaders, such as Meta (Llama3), Databricks (DBRX) and Snowflake (Arctic). On the other hand, there is a growth in interest in specialized, carefully fine-tuned yet relatively small models that can efficiently assist programmers in day-to-day tasks. Finally, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) architectures have gained a lot of traction as the preferred approach for LLMs context and prompt augmentation for building conversational SQL data copilots, code copilots and chatbots.
In this presentation, we will show how we built upon these three concepts a robust Data Copilot that can help to democratize access to company data assets and boost performance of everyone working with data platforms.
Why do we need yet another (open-source ) Copilot?
How can we build one?
