Unremembering the forgotten

Tim Sherratt

This document provides an overview of various resources related to historical research conducted by Tim Sherratt, including newspaper articles, government records, code repositories, and web applications. It references individuals like Henry Sherratt and John Christian Watson and topics like World War 1 commemorations and nuclear non-proliferation.

The Digital Revolution and the Practice of History

Tim Sherratt

The document discusses how digital technologies have revolutionized the practice of history by making vast amounts of historical newspaper articles, images, and records accessible online through services like Trove. This allows historians to analyze textual and visual sources in new ways, see connections between people, places, and events over time more easily, and involve the public by doing historical research openly. While the impact has been significant, the document argues the changes should be viewed as many smaller revolutions occurring between 1845 to the present day rather than one single digital revolution.

Significance at scale: Understanding the value of 150 million newspaper articles

Tim Sherratt

This document discusses how the National Library of Australia's Trove database of over 150 million newspaper articles provides value through the scale and variety of uses. It is used by over 230,000 users for everything from individual family history research to community collaborations that have added over 3 million records. Examples are given of how individuals have used newspaper articles to research local history topics or find inspiration for knitting and crocheting patterns, demonstrating the diverse ways the large-scale collection creates value both broadly and narrowly.

Invisible Australians: Living under the White Australia Policy

Tim Sherratt

The document discusses the experiences of thousands of people who lived under Australia's White Australia policy, which restricted non-European immigration from 1901 to 1973.

The document directs the reader to the website invisibleaustralians.org to learn more about these invisible Australians and access related archival records and resources.

Confessions of an impatient historian

Tim Sherratt

This document summarizes the journey of an impatient historian over time from 1984 to 2011. It discusses how in 1984, the historian had to follow strict rules to access archives and secrets, but by 2011, with new digital tools, the historian is able to hack, connect, and transform archives in new ways. The three wishes of the impatient historian are to let them play with data, connect different sources, and transform archives into new forms like stories and collaborations with others.

The four Es: Doing more with metadata

Tim Sherratt

The document discusses extracting, enhancing, extending, and experimenting with metadata. It provides examples of extracting metadata from sources like logs, databases, and websites. Enhancement involves adding structure, context, and meaning to metadata through techniques like entity extraction, geocoding, and topic modeling. Extension pushes metadata to new contexts through visualization, record linkage, and exposing metadata as linked open data. The document advocates experimenting with metadata in labs and sharing ideas and tools to advance the field.

Liberating lives: Invisible Australians and biographical networks

Tim Sherratt

This document discusses the website www.invisibleaustralians.org and its efforts to aggregate and link records from the National Archives of Australia to reconstruct biographical narratives of individuals. It notes there are over 50,000 Certificate of Exemption from the Dictation Test records, 90 shelves of other records, and 15,000 case files that have been digitized. The site aims to crowdsource the extraction of data from these records and link identities across different records in order to tell the stories of individuals who might otherwise remain invisible in the archival records.

Liberating lives: Invisible Australians and biographical networks

Tim Sherratt

This document describes the life of Charlie Allen, a man born in Sydney in 1896 to an Australian mother and Chinese father. At age 13, Charlie's father took him to China and left him there for 6 years. When Charlie returned to Australia in 1915, he struggled to enlist in the military due to his mixed heritage. The document notes that details about Charlie's life are known through archival records, including immigration documents. It discusses how examining individual lives through biographical narratives can provide different insights than viewing people only as part of archival systems.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...

indexPub

The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

How to Manage Reception Report in Odoo 17

Celine George

A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times. Because multiple clients may inquire about the same product at the same time, after purchasing those products, customers must be assigned to them. Odoo has a tool called Reception Report that can be used to complete this assignment. By enabling this, a reception report comes automatically after confirming a receipt, from which we can assign products to orders.
