Welcome

Digital Projects Working Group

'Planning a linked data project' will present a proposed shared digital project on the theme of Canada's 150th in 2017, the key steps the group is taking to plan and execute the project, and invite potential collaborators from among participants. This will be an opportunity for the presenters and attendees to reflect on key aspects of planning and executing a linked data project, think through challenges and opportunities that may be present in their local contexts, and parse out keylessons from the presentations from Day 1 of the Summit. The workshop will begin with a short introductory talk and then move into group discussion and final report back.

IT Working Group

This workshop will present some key technology-related questions that a Linked Data project in the planning phases must answer in order to position the project for success. Workshop leaders will walk through tips and tricks for answering these questions using a case study, providing guidance on how to collect needed information and make good technical decisions. Participants will then break into smaller groups to discuss their own case studies and work towards answers for the key technology planning questions. We will ensure each small group has a technology specialist at the table to help guide the discussion and put the principles from the workshop into practice in individual groups.

Identifiers Working Group

This workshop will explore a variety of tools that can be used for identifier reconciliation, RDF generation and legacy metadata enhancement.  Some of the applications that will be examined include: MarcEdit MARCNext Tools, OpenRefine, Protégé and RIMMF (RDA in Many Metadata Formats). The aim of the session is to describe the purpose of these applications and consider how these tools can potentially be used in technical services workflows.  In this workshop, participants will be able to ask questions and share information about their own ‘tools of the trade’ with audience members.

BIBFRAME Working Group

This workshop will explore guided linked data creation tools for the bibliographic environment using BIBFRAME and highlight the opportunities and challenges these tools present. Attendees will learn about the principal tools available, the steps involved for their utilization, and issues and outcomes for future library linked data implementations. An open forum in the latter part of the workshop will offer attendees the opportunity to discuss issues, ask questions and offer feedback for potential shared solutions.

Education and Training Working Group

This panel forum is an opportunity for the participants to share their challenges with Linked Data. It is a chance to reflect on what people have learned, and what they didn't know starting out (but wish they had). People attending the panel will also have the chance to ask the panelists (expert presenters from the first day of the Summit) questions and receive advice and feedback on their particular projects.

Individual Planning & Working Groups debriefings

Planning & Working Groups meet separately to discuss and debrief on past day’s events, to consider next steps for each of their groups, to discuss how they may be able to support planned projects announced earlier, and to identify issues, questions, actions items for the Planning Group and the other Working Groups.

All groups report out on their afternoon debriefings, discussion on issues identified and on institutional projects presented and present proposed next steps, action items, & timelines
