Assessment wrap up:

  • Amanda has been making some changes to Podio to improve our group's usage
  • There will be changes to fields and apps to go over in the near future
  • We will revisit this at the meeting on the 7th.

Rights statements for DRS items:

  • We want to have a clear and simple way for projects to indicate the re-use and rights statements for their project and its various items.
  • Especially built of the DPLA white paper on rights statements
  • How do we scope this? What are the initial scenarios, and what are the challenges?
  • Desired long term output: on upload, users could choose from a pre-selected list of statements, or go through a simple flow chart
  • We also need a clear takedown statement
  • Next steps are talking to groups like archives and other groups that share our similar concerns on this.

Website redesign:

  • Steven is part of the WEB group that helped redesign the library website.
  • They want feedback for improvements. Concerns include color, text, section placements.
  • Some tiles seemed our of place or unclear.
  • Top menu hover feature bothers some people
  • The husky red can be a little overwhelming when overused.
