• Julia visited the University of Oklahoma
• We’re having a visitor from the University of Uppsala on the 29th.
• We will also be having a visiting scholar through the NULab.

Charon talk:

• Last time we talked was about content workflow.
• We are now circling back to the administrative tasks.
• These include being able to assign tasks to users, give them roles, etc.
• The assumption is that MODS will be used for descriptive cataloging.
• We need to think about how each project gets to shape their own metadata.
• What are our standards for ingestion?
• Scenario: Do we want volunteers or students on a project to have every option for metadata editing or just some?
• It's likely we will create a template where you click to configure metadata - you choose what fields you want, and they will have a drop down list of where an admin can choose who is allowed to edit those.
• We can add a MODS extension schema if needed
• Cerberus requires title and keyword for ingestion.
• Charon will require?... Title, keyword, collection were initially on the table, but came to the decision that it just needs some identifiable title and a collection suggestion.
• For the submission interface, we want to make it simple as possible to add items.
• Charon pipes will be the way people configure editorial workflows
• It will be drag and drop modules for different kinds of tasks.
• The systems automatically brokers ongoing tasks assignments based on how these pipes are set up.
