A proposal to adopt an approach inspired by rightsstatements.org:
1. Create a set of rights statements specific to news and media
2. Host the rights statements using the IPTC CV server
3. Create an editorial process for adding new rights statements
4. Document how to use the rights statements – and maybe even implement an evaluation engine with explanations
5. Document how to mix in custom statements with IPTC ones

Presented at the IPTC Spring 2019 meeting, three proposals for taxonomies:
1. Document how to use 3rd party entity schemes
2. Develop taxonomies for “perceived” metadata - for photo, video and audio items
3. Develop a way to “delegate” to wikidata as a way to extend IPTC Media Topics into more granular topics

Exploring Article Networks on Wikipedia with NodeXLShalin Hai-Jew
With 4.7 million articles in the English version of Wikipedia, this crowd-sourced online encyclopedia is regularly one of the top-ten visited sites online. For many, this is the go-to source for a first read on a topic. The open-source and free Network Overview, Discovery and Exploration for Excel (NodeXL), which is an add-on to Microsoft Excel, enables the capture of “article networks” from Wikipedia. Such content network analysis-based data visualizations enable the development of research leads; some understandings of public conceptualizations of related concepts, peoples, events, and phenomena; the profiling of Wikipedia editors (both humans and ‘bots), and other research insights. This presentation will showcase this affordance of NodeXL and provide some ideas for practical applications of this channel of research and knowing.

Technologie Proche: Imagining the Archival Systems of Tomorrow With the Tools...Artefactual Systems - AtoM
These slides accompanied a June 4th, 2016 presentation made by Dan Gillean of Artefactual Systems at the Association of Canadian Archivists' 2016 Conference in Montreal, QC, Canada.
This presentation aims to examine several existing or emerging computing paradigms, with specific examples, to imagine how they might inform next-generation archival systems to support digital preservation, description, and access. Topics covered include:
- Distributed Version Control and git
- P2P architectures and the BitTorrent protocol
- Linked Open Data and RDF
- Blockchain technology
The session is part of an attempt by the ACA to create interactive "working sessions" at its conferences. Accompanying notes can be found at: http://bit.ly/tech-Proche
Participants were also asked to use the Twitter hashtag of #techProche for online interaction during the session.

The development of better library information systems will always remain the core business of any serious library organization, but a shift took place towards (freely) available web-based tools for creating and managing the information workflow.
End-users are not only using these heavily, but are also creating their own preferred tools. Today's students are incorporating Web 2.0 skills in daily life, in their social and learning environments. Tomorrow's academic staff will expect to be able to use their preferred tools and resources within their work environment. Today's ánd tomorrow's libraries should support students and staff in the learning and research process by integrating their services and resources into our patrons' environments.
This practical workshop will demonstrate the use of Web 2.0 technology to empower users and librarians. During a hands-on session, participants will work with these tools. They will develop tailor-made services via personal start page software like Netvibes, making use of RSS-feeds, Widgets and Browser extensions.
We will explore the use of Netvibes and Web 2.0 tools in library staff and/or library user education/instruction. We will focus on library services which can be created almost on-the-fly with low costs and high impact. The growing use of social networks justifies the development of a library presence within these networks to reach out to our users.

The “right to fork”, a consequence of the “hack on copyright” that is copyleft licensing, helps keep open source and open content project leaders honest. Forking is a political act as much as a version control command, and it used to be that both were a big deal. But now that distributed version control systems (DVCS) have made forking trivial, are there implications for the political act as well? How does political forking work within collaborative prose text projects (i.e. wikis)? English Wikipedia is so large as to be practically unforkable - it essentially has an unassailable monopoly, and unchecked power, in the English language encyclopedia market. One of the core Wikipedia rules is “one topic, one article”, which would seem to prohibit forking, but could we adhere to this principle and still take advantage of DVCS? Can a community be forked while keeping the shared project goals intact?
Audience members will benefit from a grasp of version control, distributed version control and the workings of wikis and Wikipedia.

A Survey of the Landscape and State-of-Art in Semantic WikiMax Völkel
Semantic Wikis: The Wiki Way to the Semantic Web?
Semantic Wiki Mini-Series1st session: A Survey of the Landscape and State-of-Art in Semantic Wiki
Co-chairs:
Sebastian Schaffert (Salzburg Research, Austria),Max Völkel (FZI-Karlsruhe)
Wiki in web 2.0 scenerio concept emerged as a response to the technologies and setting the libraries into more user-centered, networking faculty, students, and librarians to create a vital and evolving organization designed to meet the need of the of the user in digital library era.
The question of what constitutes a keyword is the starting point for query design for that is what makes querying and query design practically a part of a research strategy. When formulating a query, one often begins with keywords so as to ascertain who is using them, in which contexts and with which spread or distribution over time. In the following a particular keyword query strategy or design is put forward, whereby one queries competing keywords, asking whether a particular term is winning favour and amongst whom.
The workshop opens with a discussion of how to repurpose digital "methods of the medium" for social and cultural scholarly research, including its limitations, critiques and ethics. Subsequently participants are trained in using digital methods in hands-on sessions. How to use crawlers for dynamic URL sampling and issue network mapping? How to employ scrapers to create a bias or partisanship diagnostic instrument? We also consider how to deploy online platforms for social research. How to transform Wikipedia from an online encyclopaedia to a device for cross-cultural memory studies? How to make use of social media so as to profile the preferences and tastes of politicians’ friends, and also locate most engaged with content? How to make use of Twitter analytics to debanalize tweets, and provide compelling accounts of events on the ground? Finally, the workshop turns to the question of employing web data and metrics as societal indices more generally.
The workshop serves as an introduction to two classic digital methods techniques for issue mapping and analysis. A discussion of the Issue Crawler and the Lippmannian device is followed by a short exercise in which we'll study the presence of skeptics among top sources of information related to climate change.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
