Sending out the DAMS Evaluation to the whole CSU

What day do we want to do this? 

What should the email look like? 

We should choose who to distribute to based on the registry and send directly.

Beth

• January 13th - on the schedule for the archivists round table

• We can send it out to all the campuses we missed on Wednesday (13th)

• Beth will gather who we have missed and send after round table on Wednesday

• Alyssa will check on DRC participants and remind them to work on it/return to Beth

• Next steps: what should we do with the data? For next meeting: how do we want to use the info, what kind of report to create, when to have them return the toolkit

  • Aggregating data (anonymously?)

  • original matrix can inform some of the data normalization

Applying the DAMS rubric to Alma Digital

Steve

Possible Alma Digital test objectives:
• Assessment of new collections
• Assessment of migrating collections
• Can AD be used for metadata only as a catalog harvest solution for existing collections?
• Brief Report or executive statement
• How many tests? Should we secure sandbox? Or provide instruction set for testing w/o uploads. May not be able to analyze discovery and display performance without sandbox.
• How many test participants?
• What are the costs and how are they structured?
• Using the DAMS assessment rubric, do we provide a direct comparison between AD and Hyrax?

AD training

Erik B.: Sac State has been trying to install AD, free instance included in Esploro; created test collections in Alma; Piping collections to Primo has been tough when working with data to data transfers between sandboxes, has to be tested on production (requires different data profile); Everything set up for an IZ, not really set up for a NZ; Still ironing out pieces of the implementation; Would be great to set up in a CSU-wide sandbox; Do need a sandbox instance for an effective evaluation; Potential dealbreakers (still need to test): maybe no search engine indexing, no perma-urls;

Eric M.: Looked at AD in relation to CDL awhile back; looked nice in some respects but wasn’t going to work for what they needed; Got a few cost estimates but not too detailed (not sure about storage costs); Ex Libris does have install examples; What about preservation and mgmt capacity? Looks to be lacking in this area;

Building out the digital preservation guidelines for the CSU

Eric

• Working on workflows; looking at other examples of step by step and also linking out to examples; Other approach would be to create an infographic like workflow (more visual);

• Question for the group: do we need a CSU specific one or should we just point to existing workflows? and tools?

  • Because we don’t have a system-wide system, then maybe we don’t need a system-wide set of workflows yet

  • Better to point to community resource than to maintain our own mini-sets of info

  • Will it be too overwhelming to send people out to all the links?

  • Listing professional development/learning opportunities might help mitigate the that
