Opening Our Doors Wider
The purpose of this presentation is to present the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum as a case study of a cultural heritage institution that is completely revamping its approach to inclusion through setting a new standard for accessibility of its digital exhibition interactives and media. Considered a vital part of transforming the museum, NASM has had to re-examine all aspects of producing digital exhibition elements in pursuit of its new approach, and will share this, as well as lessons learned along the way. I will direct this presentation primarily to cultural heritage professionals who are creating a new exhibition or redoing all of their exhibitions, and who are looking to improve the inclusivity of their digital interactives and media pieces. From this presentation, these cultural heritage professionals would gain an understanding of: 1) considerations that go into a wholesale revamping of a cultural institution’s revamping of their accessibility approach; 2) tactics for improving the inclusivity of their interactives for people with vision, brain, hearing, and mobility-based disabilities; and 3) internal and external stakeholders to involve throughout the process.
Web accessibility
Web accessibility means that people with disabilities can use the web. It is important for increasing market share and audience reach, improving maintainability and efficiency, and satisfying legal requirements. Web accessibility can be measured using the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines from the W3C. To make a website accessible, designers should consider layout reflow, text adjustments, search and navigation, language support, and metadata. Accessibility on mobile devices requires control mechanisms that work on touchscreens, minimizing user input, and responsive design. Screen readers on Android and iOS operate using touch gestures.
Web accessibility
This PowerPoint presentation provides an introduction to web accessibility and MISD's accessibility procedure document and plan. It covers why web accessibility is important, as 1 in 5 people have a disability, and outlines the four principles of accessibility - perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust. It discusses common accessibility issues and how to make websites more accessible by adding text alternatives, captions, headings, sufficient color contrast, and more. Attendees will receive training resources and are expected to make requested changes to their content within 30 days to meet accessibility standards. The Help Desk is available for any questions.
Accessibility
Accessibility in web design refers to making web content accessible to all users regardless of ability or technology. The document discusses guidelines like WCAG 2.0 that websites must meet, defines universal design, and provides tips for creating accessible content like using alternative text, navigation aids, and validating color contrast and readability. Key points are to plan for accessibility during content production and provide alternatives like text for high bandwidth elements.

This document discusses the National Library of Australia's use of social media and wikis. It notes that the Library supports transparency of information and engages with other libraries nationally and internationally using tools like Flickr, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and LinkedIn. It provides statistics on the Library's internal and public wikis, which allow all staff to collaborate, share information across levels, and work in teams on projects related to collections, services, and more. The document emphasizes that the wikis are community-managed and allow users to fix issues and have their edits attributed. It concludes that people are willing to take responsibility for their own learning and organizing when given the opportunity to contribute and learn from each other.
Making Our Catalogue As Easy As 123
The National Library of Australia conducted a review of its VuFind catalogue interface to improve usability for users. They worked with a usability consultancy to conduct user surveys, define profiles, interview users, and have them complete tasks on the original and revised interfaces. Based on findings, recommendations were made to improve labeling, navigation, search box, and results page. The goal was to enhance access and make the catalogue interface more intuitive for user needs.
Open Publish at the National Library of Australia
The National Library of Australia uses Open Journal Systems (OJS) to manage Open Publish, their open access journal hosting service. OJS is an open source journal management and publishing system that assists with the entire refereed publishing process. The National Library hosts six journals through Open Publish and works with journal managers to facilitate the publishing process. Their objectives are to capture and improve access to Australian content in a format suitable for long-term preservation.
How we wiki
The National Library of Australia implemented their first wiki in 2006 and now has over 100 wiki spaces used by their 450 employees. Wikis allow for transparency of information sharing and collaboration both internally and with other organizations. They chose to use Confluence due to its compatibility with their systems and because it has an active open source community. Wikis are used for a variety of projects including managing collections, planning new services, and improving business processes. While wikis provide flexibility and easy collaboration, their open nature can also lead to uncertainty which requires governance and guidelines for proper usage.

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation Parameters
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.

From Natural Language to Structured Solr Queries using LLMs
This talk draws on experimentation to enable AI applications with Solr. One important use case is to use AI for better accessibility and discoverability of the data: while User eXperience techniques, lexical search improvements, and data harmonization can take organizations to a good level of accessibility, a structural (or “cognitive” gap) remains between the data user needs and the data producer constraints.
That is where AI – and most importantly, Natural Language Processing and Large Language Model techniques – could make a difference. This natural language, conversational engine could facilitate access and usage of the data leveraging the semantics of any data source.
The objective of the presentation is to propose a technical approach and a way forward to achieve this goal.
The key concept is to enable users to express their search queries in natural language, which the LLM then enriches, interprets, and translates into structured queries based on the Solr index’s metadata.
This approach leverages the LLM’s ability to understand the nuances of natural language and the structure of documents within Apache Solr.
The LLM acts as an intermediary agent, offering a transparent experience to users automatically and potentially uncovering relevant documents that conventional search methods might overlook. The presentation will include the results of this experimental work, lessons learned, best practices, and the scope of future work that should improve the approach and make it production-ready.
"Choosing proper type of scaling", Olena Syrota
Imagine an IoT processing system that is already quite mature and production-ready and for which client coverage is growing and scaling and performance aspects are life and death questions. The system has Redis, MongoDB, and stream processing based on ksqldb. In this talk, firstly, we will analyze scaling approaches and then select the proper ones for our system.

Lee Barnes - Path to Becoming an Effective Test Automation Engineer.pdf
So… you want to become a Test Automation Engineer (or hire and develop one)? While there’s quite a bit of information available about important technical and tool skills to master, there’s not enough discussion around the path to becoming an effective Test Automation Engineer that knows how to add VALUE. In my experience this had led to a proliferation of engineers who are proficient with tools and building frameworks but have skill and knowledge gaps, especially in software testing, that reduce the value they deliver with test automation.
In this talk, Lee will share his lessons learned from over 30 years of working with, and mentoring, hundreds of Test Automation Engineers. Whether you’re looking to get started in test automation or just want to improve your trade, this talk will give you a solid foundation and roadmap for ensuring your test automation efforts continuously add value. This talk is equally valuable for both aspiring Test Automation Engineers and those managing them! All attendees will take away a set of key foundational knowledge and a high-level learning path for leveling up test automation skills and ensuring they add value to their organizations.

The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.
