This will be a half-day, hands-on workshop covering data modeling primarily in RDF. We hope to bring a diverse group of Hydra community members together to learn, discuss, and build out examples that will inform Hydra community best practices for data modeling. This modeling work will be taught in the context of helping Hydra and Fedora development, metadata, and interoperability efforts. We will discuss how model uses a number of standards, and demo the different ways to represent models. We will compare and contract data modeling with metadata standards/profiles. We will walk through modeling efforts around PCDM and its place in our work and community - this workshop will not focus on PCDM alone (this is not a PCDM or RDF workshop). We want this workshop to bring together, develop and engage a larger corps of data modelers in the Hydrasphere. and A workshop delivered at Hydra Connect 2016, described thus

A workshop delivered at Hydra Connect 2016, described thus, increasing familiarity with PCDM, contributing back to PCDM from the activities of the participants, and increasing participants’ familiarly and comfort with data models more broadly., and The Portland Common Data Model (PCDM) is a flexible shared, linked data-based domain model for representing complex digital objects. This workshop will review PCDM, its history, technical overview, recent developments, and Hydra-specific implementation considerations. The workshop will also include an interactive modeling session where users will employ use cases from their repositories (or provided samples) to model in PCDM. The goals of the workshop include

//wiki.duraspace.org/display/hydra/Applied+Linked+Data+Working+Group, https, A workshop delivered at Hydra Connect 2016, described thus, and This workshop is all about techniques to use linked data within your Hydra based application. For example, autocomplete fields from a controlled vocabulary are nice... but what if you wanted to give more context to what users are selecting via things like alternative labels and broader / narrower concepts? How do you cache triples locally? How do do you publish your own controlled vocabulary for others to use? And what is the best way to make your RDF data harvestable by others? This workshop is based on work done by the Applied Linked Data working group
For the past few years I've been distributing a survey to gauge usage of Sufia (and, this year, CurationConcerns) and to get a sense of what direction the community wants the components to go in. I'd like to report back to you all on what the latest data says, and share a rough roadmap for 2016-2017.

The Boston Public Library has long been a Fedora 3 Commons system and we are heavily invested in that backend. After waiting to see how Fedora 4 Commons develops and with some recent internal debate, our "next gen" repository solution is going in a different direction. This will be a (perhaps) controversial talk as to why and how we came to this conclusion.

When the Library of Congress was recently attacked, we noticed an important part of our workflow ground to a halt - XML schema validation had failed. We've developed a gem that allows for schema mirroring and offline validation/rspec testing, which we hope might be of use to others.

A presentation given at Hydra Connect 2016, described thus and In the UK, the Universities of York and Hull are looking at Archivematica's place in a research data pipeline. The two universities have slightly different use cases but share the desire to put research (and likely other) content through Archivematica on its way to the repository thus giving us a solid base for long-term preservation. We are both now in the third phase of a joint project to build proof-of-concepts to illustrate how Hydra and Archivematica can work together to manage and preserve research data. Since our project began, Jisc have launched an ambitious UK national research data shared service where a range of suppliers offer systems in different lots. Both Hydra / Fedora and Islandora / Fedora are part of the the ‘research repository’ lot of the service and the work of York and Hull has heavily informed the ‘preservation’ lot, with Archivematica one of the systems on offer. This presentation will describe the proof-of-concept work done by Hull and York, and will provide an overview of the new Jisc service.

This annual report on the Hydra Project will provide a synopsis of the project’s current state from a high level perspective, including recent developments and important trends in adoption and activiity, the technical framework, the community framework, major projects and milestones, and where we may be going in the near future. With so much activity in so many different parts of the project, this session is a chance to take a step back from the many trees to survey the whole forest of the HydraSphere.

The keynote address at the Hydra Connect 2016 conference advertised thus and This presentation aims to present opportunities for collaboration between current Hydra members and The Daniel Cosío Villegas library at El Colegio de México (COLMEX) as well as other Mexican institutions that are interested in making a Mexican-based Hydra users group. COLMEX has been actively planning the implementation of a Hydra-based repository. Given that COLMEX has a significant presence in various digital libraries and repositories interest groups in Mexico, we have taken the opportunity promote Hydra as an alternative, not only with the hopes of promoting the project but to find local partners that might be interested in collaborating. We hope that we might find international partners who will help to spur initiatives through various means of evangelizing, helping support efforts, and perhaps coming down to Mexico to visit. In this manner we can help Hydra become a truly global initiative and one which considers north-south collaborations especially those outside the English-speaking world.
