Subject: [CODE4LIB] Free Metadata Aggregation Webinar from DPLA



Dear Colleagues,



Please join us for a *free, one-hour webinar* on metadata aggregation at scale, and DPLA workflows and our future development in this area.



The webinar will take place *on January 22nd, at 2pm Eastern.* Read on for details and registration information.



*Description*



Metadata is basis of the work of DPLA. We rely on a growing network of hubs that aggregate metadata from partners, then we, in turn, aggregate the hubs' metadata into the DPLA datastore.



As we continue to grow our hub network, we have found the practical matter of how to aggregate partner metadata and deal with quality control over the resulting aggregated set becomes our biggest challenge.



The webinar will examine the aggregation best practices at two of our DPLA Service Hubs, as the basis of a conversation about metadata aggregation practices among our Hubs. In addition, DPLA has been working on some new tools for metadata aggregation and quality control that we'd like to share.

We'll preview some of our plans and hope to get feedback on future directions.



*Speakers*

  -    Lisa Gregory and Stephanie Williams of the North Carolina Digital Heritage Center <http://www.digitalnc.org/>

   -    Heather Gilbert and Tyler Mobley of the South Carolina Digital Library  <http://scmemory.org/>

   -    Gretchen Gueguen <http://dp.la/info/about/staff/> of DPLA



*Registration*



This webinar is offered to the public. Please register <https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/561128425722875393> ahead of the event to ensure that you get a seat. Since we'll be limited to 100 seats, please limit registration <https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/561128425722875393> to *no more than two seats per organization*.

Subject: next dpla meeting - 1/22?

Hi all,

My action item from yesterday's meeting is to schedule our next meeting, where we're hoping to make progress on a planning grant.

Since OhioDIG will be meeting on 1/22 at the State Library, we thought after that meeting might be a good time for everyone.

Say, 1/22 at 2pm-4pm at the State Library?  There will be call-in options.  If that doesn't work for you, let me know - if there are too many who can't attend, we'll go to a Doodle poll.

Thanks,
Meghan
