Revision as of 13:35, 23 July 2015
- Amanda introduces recurring strands/themes
- workshops and outreach
- planning Sep or Oct workshops now is a good idea
- (having workshops from end of Aug to mid Sep is not a good time)
- Sweeney had some target-specific training sessions on DRS last year
- has been doing demos over past year; now is time to get liasons prepped, so planning to re-institute formal scheduled events
- events open to braoder library (and anywone else) — demos, questions, training … whatever audience wants
- goal is both that attendees will have ability to provide support, and Sarah gets an idea of current needs
- open house in Fall (late Sep, early Oct)
- NULab likely to partner with us
- looking for “lightweight but substantive”
- What are lessons from previous Open House that didn't have many attendees? What should the format be for an Open House?
- Poster-style presentations: have a certain number of slots (spaces), let folks sign up first come first serve.
- (AL): Or have a panel? Informal Q&A -- chance to people to ask questions about projects. Something showing specific application: here's how to use in your classroom or own work. Get people in door for discussion, then can circulate for petting zoo.
- Suggestion (SS): panel that handles both Q&A and pre-established topic; may work particularly well if topic(s) quite broad. Similar to Discussions @ DSC series. Should still pose a guiding question, topics might be:
- sharing open data
- representation of physical materials online
- best practices for sharing credit
- two periods: get people in the door for a discussion first, then have the petting zoo (“discussion @ XX:00, followed by an open house/petting zoo/Project Menagerie/DH Melange”)
- Top idea: bring NU Husky mascot, create two extra felt heads for Ceberus, make it a real petting zoo.
- Jen Anderle likes plenty of advance notice; have told her informally that we will have this event, but don't have a firm date yet so left it at that
- H is planning on Oct being open access month, rather than have everything in a single week, so there should be fruitful overlap if DH Petting Zoo is held in early October
- Yes, having snacks is a good idea — Julia and E. Dillon to figure out how it gets paid for
- H & Julia have been discussing having separate OJS sessions (also envisioned for Oct)
- will WWP be doing their workshops in Fall?
- Amanda is planning lightweight DSG technology hour-long event internal to library in Aug
- XML
- [two others]
- Abbey is hoping to continue Jim's Open Office Hours and Working Group and DissCo
- Sarah C could help Abbey w/ DisCo
- perhaps to be combined with a speaker series (NULab may have funding for that?)
- There is funding available for speakers during Oct on the theme of open access (open source, open whatever), can work with HC on that
- WWP is likely to do another set of XML/TEI/WWP training in the fall for their own internal new employees — not open to public, but given individuals would be welcome
- Another Omeka workshop? Dave and Jim held one and solicited feedback from attendees, may have useful insights
- Amanda hoping Bahare and new data visualization person would do an intro GIS / data visualization event (or two separate events) in late Oct or Nov
- library staff has shown interest in basic visualizations or Google Map API
- perhaps first have internal library staff event, to give presenters practice, then open to public
