General ScholarWorks updates

@David Walker

  • Still wrapping up first big pass through metadata clean-up, takes over a week to update and re-index

  • Dave can provide ways to automate some of the updates to the new field augmentations, if people are okay with some errors being introduced that need to be cleaned up, will be an option.

  • Fixed embargo issue--can edit more easily now and institutions such as Northridge can now use the new system

  • Most campuses have handles redirecting

  • Still some records in DSpace that are getting hits as well for some campuses but very much in the tail end of this proces

  • Q: What are campuses doing with their old stats?
    DAVE: haven’t gotten there yet, same for collections, we do need to address this issue and need to figure out how. On the to-do list for sure



 

Closing items

 

  • Call for Work Form Task Force members needs to be sent

  • Once we have volunteers, they can flesh out the charge, as has been our practice, but Dave should feel free to add useful items to the charge

  • Dave will put out call, if volunteers aren’t happening then put the call through COLD to identify people

  • Filling Kevin’s position still up in the air, part of a broader conversation about what positions COLD is more interested in seeing, a priority question

  • Refilling Kevin’s line is essential for user facing support to ensure these platforms are usable and viable

  • We can only move at the pace of the resources we have
