Static Web Methodology as a Sustainable Approach to Digital Humanities Projects
Darf ich vorstellen: https://codeberg.org/weirdfox/mfs
Ein Tool, mit dem man Metadaten herunterladen kann. Gerade nur Publikationen über DOI von Crossref / DataCite / OpenAlex, wird aber in alle möglichen Richtungen erweitert. Nutze es um Rust zu lernen, ist aber ernst gemeint :)
Momentan eine sehr Alpha-Version verfügbar, von jeglicher produktiven Nutzung ist stark abzuraten.
Ich freue mich über Tipps, Ideen, Kritik!
Über neue Releases wird hier ebenfalls berichtet.
The first alpha version of Skosmos 3 has been published! This release provides a peek into the upcoming next major version of the Skosmos publishing tool for SKOS controlled vocabularies.
The release features a reimplemented front-end with a fresh layout and improved accessibility, as well as many architectural improvements and modernization of the codebase.

Text of my #Code4Lib #c4l25 talk is up: https://ruthtillman.com/talk/c4l-scaffolding-possibility/
I am here at #Code4Lib! I have hugged friends! I have eaten food! I have applied my backup text method because there’s no presenter view.
Version 1.3 of the automated subject subject indexing tool #Annif has been released!
This release introduces support for the EstNLTK analyzer for better Estonian lemmatization , optimizations to the MLLM backend, as well as maintenance and bug fixes, including better file permissions in multi-user environments.
I've been fooling around with a #Python script for converting #MARC bibliographic records to #Markdown for use with a static website generator. Probably only has an audience of one (me), but it's not complicated and it solves an interesting problem for private #librarians: how can we get our collections out there when LibraryThing isn't enough but a full OPAC is too much?
#Code4Lib! You nominated some amazing potential keynote speakers and 8 of them are available to speak. Now you get to pick your favorites \o/ . Voting is open until until Dec 13: https://forms.gle/sZu15v2VbzV7sokv7
I just had a paper published: "The Interconnectedness of All Things: Understanding Digital Collections Through File Similarity" in Preservation, Digital Technology & Culture.

Come hurl your abuse and academic reprisals at me!
Are you using #Annif for automated subject indexing or classification? Have you tried it out? Did you look at it but never got around to using it?
If yes, please fill in this Annif user survey: https://forms.gle/P7jGoPMbEAJnD9zw9
We want to hear your thoughts about Annif and how to make it better in the future!
It should only take a few minutes. Deadline is November 30.
We will organize an #Annif tutorial session "Introduction to the Annif automated indexing tool" at the #SWIB24 online conference on 25th November 2024, 9-13 CET! It's free, but you need to sign up through the SWIB Discourse platform: https://forum.swib.org/t/workshop-introduction-to-annif-automated-indexing-tool-category/139
The workshop is based on the Annif tutorial materials, created by the National Library of Finland and ZBW: https://github.com/NatLibFi/Annif-tutorial
Library systems friends - other than supplier / user group conferences, what are you favourite conferences and events that are significantly or mostly focused on library technology and systems? Looking for more things like #code4lib.
The weak evidence linking the defendant to the WorldCat scrape should alarm all library technologists and the #code4lib community, a great many of whom are just as implicated by this “evidence” as the defendant.
The only named defendant in this complaint is an experienced library technologist and #code4lib community member, who has since filed a motion to dismiss (https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/68157923/21/oclc-online-computer-library-center-inc-v-annas-archive/) on April 15th, 2024, in which she attested she has no connection to the WorldCat scraping (https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/68157923/21/1/oclc-online-computer-library-center-inc-v-annas-archive/) done by Anna’s Archive.
Dear #library technology community, we need to talk about @OCLC. #libraries #code4lib #c4l24
Im not sure who at #Code4Lib to ping on this, the contact just points to the instance, but re: requests for advice on avoiding problems like this, you can both improve the quality of the pub and add a method to catch problems like this by a) requiring all datasets come with a manifest that describes everything in them, field by field, eg. See datasheets for datasets, and b) making it the authors responsibility that the reviewers are able to properly evaluate the work, including providing any necessary I/O code or alternate formats needed. If your reviewers cant use the data, neither can your readers.
Good morning, everyone.
On December 4, 2023, Code4Lib Journal released the third article in four years with major patron privacy and ethics issues, an article that included an actual data breach.
Please consider signing this open letter calling for the editorial board to make transparent and significant changes to align with library ethics, research ethics, and correct information-security practices - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1c-ADFaum9pB-W4AWQIxE6BPyVJs8goMlrVLoC00ucKc/edit?usp=sharing
