Searching for Sustainability – Avalon in the Samvera Community

Description:: This presentation will focus on Northwestern University and Indiana University’s continued work toward a sustainable model for support, maintenance, and development of the Avalon Media System - an open-source, Samvera-based repository for audio and video jointly developed since 2011. Over the last two years, the team has focused on widening engagement with and commitment to the Samvera and IIIF communities as well as developing wider developer interest by re-basing the product on top of Hyrax and developing a modular architecture. and A proposal and presentation given at the Open Repositories conference in Hamburg, Germany, in 2019, described thus

Distributed Digital Preservation with Samvera: the One-to-Many Grant

Description:: The One-to-Many (OtM) Grant, funded by the Mellon Foundation, is working to provide a model for how local repositories, like Hyrax, interact with Distributed Digital Preservation (DDP) services (i.e., Chronopolis, AP Trust, LOCKSS, etc). This presentation will offer an overview of the grant's goals, an update on the specifications under development, and a call to action for implementation. and A presentation at Samvera Connect 2019 described thus

Authority data: the good, the dirty and the semantic

Description:: A presentation at Samvera Connect 2019, originally titled"Questioning Authority, Questioning authority is a Samvera developed gem that provides a standard way of accessing external authority controlled vocabularies. As part of the Mellon Foundation-funded Linked Data for Production (LD4P) project, this gem was expanded to include a module for general processing of authorities that provide linked data regardless of ontology. This module leverages the existing normalized data format of QA and expands it to include extended context allowing for more accurate selections. Also part of this work was the development of QaServer which is an engine from which you can build a standalone Rails app acting as a service point for submitting queries to QA. The QaServer includes a management UI to explore the availability of authorities and the performance of requests. We will look at recent enhancements to QA, the QaServer UI, a caching system for linked data authorities without an API, metadata entry using extended context, and how we’ve leveraged linked data in some of our user facing applications., and Connecting to Authorities through Linked Data", described thus
