Ukoln support for museum development officersAnn Chapman
Presentation by Ann Chapman on the work of UKOLN made to museum development officers at a Collections Trust Briefing Day on 23 Nov. 2009. Focus on the Cultural Heritage area of the UKOLN Web site,
Work Package 4 focuses on community building and dissemination activities around open metadata and Europeana. Key objectives include:
1. Engaging content holders, metadata experts, and technologists to strengthen existing networks and involve new stakeholders in Europeana.
2. Encouraging content holders to contribute new material to Europeana through hands-on workshops and documentation on tools.

4. Facilitating conversations between technologists and humanities researchers through events and an online contest.
This document summarizes presentations from the 2007 National Digital Forum on digital cultural heritage content and end-user communities. It discusses several projects that were presented, including the Gathering the Jewels project in Wales which has digitized over 26,000 items from 120 contributing repositories. It also discusses projects from Puke Ariki Museum and Archives New Zealand's War Art Online collection. Key lessons discussed include involving communities, collaborating on resources, prioritizing digitization projects, and understanding what users want from digital heritage resources. It raises questions about what content to digitize, whether to allow user-generated comments, and managing expectations of digital collections between institutions and users.
This document discusses a project involving teachers, students, and teacher educators sharing and developing practices around open educational resources and digital literacy. Key terms are defined, such as open educational resources being teaching materials that are freely available to use and modify. Frameworks for digital literacy are outlined, seeing it as skills on a continuum between social and technical abilities, and as changing practices using technology to create meanings. The project outputs will be shared through an open textbook and installation, with more information available on their website and blog.
This document describes a project that partnered with at-risk youth and local organizations to digitize and preserve historical materials from the community. The goals were to capture materials not in traditional repositories, teach partners how to digitize items themselves, and build online collections and relationships. Students worked with community members to uncover "hidden" stories and materials from the Hayes-Taylor YMCA to digitize and include in a website. Lessons learned included the need for extended outreach, developing community contacts, promoting projects, and allowing the community to define its own history.
Digital curation in education involves using tools like Pinterest, Storify, and Scoop IT to curate online content for educational purposes. Teachers can create boards and curate content from other experts to share with students. This exposes students to new ideas and helps them learn how to determine what resources to use. Examples include English and science course boards that compile reading lists, study guides, and related media. Students can also curate content to demonstrate their understanding, foster discussion, and connect with a wider community of learners.
The Digital Research & Curator Team at the British Library was formed in 2010 to support digital scholarship. Their mission is to develop innovative models for digital scholarship using digital content and technologies. Some of their main activities include staff training, promoting digital scholarship at the library, curating digital research data, and engaging with users. They offer various training courses, organize discussions on digital topics, and support digital collections and services at the library.

Powerful Professional Development in Your PLN!Lisa Dawley
This document discusses how to build a personal learning network (PLN) through online tools and activities to overcome isolation and support knowledge sharing. It explains that a PLN allows customizing one's own learning by connecting with others through social networks, webinars, virtual conferences, online forums and communities. Specific tools and platforms mentioned for connecting include Twitter hashtag chats, SecondLife virtual conferences, Adobe Connect and Elluminate for webinars, Diigo for resource sharing, blogs, and niche social networks. The document encourages getting started by blogging about learning, sharing posts, joining or starting interest groups, finding and tagging resources, following others, and using feed readers.
Social Networking Extensions for EPrintsRichard Davis
SNEEP (Social Networking Extensions for EPrints) was a 6-month project funded by JISC to develop an open source plugin for the EPrints repository software. The plugin adds commenting, tagging, and bookmarking functionality to allow users to socially engage with content. This helps keep valuable user interactions within the repository rather than exported to separate social bookmarking sites. The project team from ULCC developed the SNEEP plugin and it is now available to any EPrints repository to install.
FryskLab - Education, innovation and maker culture in the libraryFers

The campaign advocates for appropriate levels of curatorial staff in museums to ensure collections remain relevant, exhibitions are effective, collections are properly managed, and cultural objects are cared for now and for future generations. It calls on various organizations to support curatorship through research, accreditation standards, and acknowledging curators' role in museums.
Many museums are considering how to use open licenses to support the delivery of their public mission and increase their visitor numbers. In this presentation, Nick Poole explores two case studies and provides some simple steps for museums wanting to 'open up' their collections online.

The Collections Trust is a UK-based charity that promotes standards and best practices in collections management. This document summarizes a seminar presented by the Collections Trust on copyright issues affecting museums. It discusses how two museums, York Museums Trust and Derby Museum and Art Gallery, have adopted open content licensing strategies to share their digital collections online. Both cases demonstrate positive outcomes from increased access and visibility, though each museum has different policies around what content can be shared openly. The document concludes by advising museums to consider their mission and goals when developing an open content strategy.
The document discusses how 3D technologies can be used to enhance understanding and experiences of cultural heritage. It provides examples of 3D scanning and printing being used for conservation, research, accessibility, management and commercial opportunities. While the technologies provide benefits, challenges include integration, platform choices, digital preservation and rights. The focus should be on using 3D to enrich experiences and management of collections, not as an end itself.
The document outlines the agenda for a workshop on going digital for the South East Museum Development, including sessions on setting goals and developing plans of action for digital strategies, creating digital content, and developing an online presence, with a focus on networking and sharing best practices.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
