From etripp at duraspace.org Tue Oct 3 08:39:51 2017 From: etripp at duraspace.org (Erin Tripp) Date: Tue, 3 Oct 2017 09:39:51 -0300 Subject: [Pasig-discuss] [UPDATE] DuraSpace Migration/ Upgrade Survey: Call for Participation Message-ID: *With apologies for cross posting* [UPDATE] DuraSpace Migration/ Upgrade Survey: Call for Participation Our community is sharing their migration and upgrade stories. Now let's hear from you! We captured 12 migration stories and have 11 more interviews pending. Managers, librarians, application analysts/ engineers, and project managers from the United States, Canada, the UK, and Switzerland talked about migrations and upgrades involving almost a dozen software platforms. Our aim is to share these vignettes widely to support community-wide efforts to move data among platforms and versions of platforms to achieve access and preservation goals. Two groups requested access to an anonymized copy of the survey results including the recently IMLS-funded Bridge2Hyku project (LG-70-17-0217-17 ) at the University of Houston. They?ll use the data to plan their upcoming project to build a toolkit for institutions considering a migration to Hyku. The Digital Preservation Coalition will receive an anonymized copy of the survey results as well. Their members identified repository migration knowledge as critical as they look ahead to planning and implementing migration projects. Of course, the results will also be used by DuraSpace and affiliate open source communities to develop community resources to fill gaps identified by survey participants. Results will also be reported at the DLF Forum on October 23, 2017 in Pittsburgh, PA. I look forward to highlighting what we can learn from each other to make migration and upgrade projects a more positive experience in the future. My goal is to conduct 30 interviews in the four-week period. I'm on track to meeting that goal. If you?re interested in participating, email me at etripp at duraspace.org. Or, if you prefer, you can also fill out the survey online by yourself. The survey will close on Tuesday, October 17, 2017. Please be in touch with me to discuss any aspect of this initiative. *Erin Tripp* *Business Development Manager* Skype: eohallor Twitter: eeohalloran Email: etripp at duraspace.org DuraSpace | DSpace | Fedora | VIVO Follow us: Twitter ?

Special Issue of Cultural Analytics* Guest editors ? Amelia Acker & Tanya Clement, University of Texas at Austin *?Mathematically, visually, and narratively, it matters which figures figure figures, which systems systematize systems? Donna Haraway Environmental Humanities 6 (2015), p. 160.* Data have become pervasive in research in the humanities and the social sciences. New areas, objects, and situations for study have developed; and new methods for working with data are shepherded by new epistemologies and (potential) paradigms shifts. But data didn?t just happen to us. We have happened to data. Karen Barad writes that ?We are responsible for the world in which we live not because it is an arbitrary construction of our choosing, but because it is sedimented out of particular practices that we have a role in shaping? (102). Yet where is our agency in that responsibility? What is the role we play in the data cultures/culture as data we form around sociomaterial practices? How can we better understand how these practices effect, and affect, the materialization of subjects, objects, and the relations between them? How can we engage our data culture in practical, critical, and generative ways? In every field, boundaries have been drawn between data and human as if making meaning with data is innocent work, but these boundaries are never innocent. Questions are emerging about data cultures and culture as data?urgent questions that range across concerns with the datafication of culture including the codification (or code-ification) of social and cultural bias; the integrity of data and of human agency, subjectivity, and identity. This special issue of Cultural Analytics invites responses to these concerns. We invite submissions related (but not limited) to: *Proximity and distance between the creation of data and its collection *The nature of data as object or content *Modes of data circulation; dissemination and preservation *Data audiences *Histories and imaginary data futures *Data expertises and folkways *The environmental impact of data work *Data and technological progressivism *Data Accessibility and ethics *Data ontologies *The cultivation, taming, cleaning, and standardization of data *The ethical and social implications of data mining *The cultures, communities, and consciousness of data production *Data literacies Cultural Analytics is looking for Research or theory articles (7,000 to 8,000 words) Data reviews or Case studies of datasets (2,000 to 3,000 words, including visualizations or demonstrations) Opinion pieces (4,000 to 5,000 words) Timetable for Submissions Deadline for abstracts (250-500) -- early November 15, 2017 Deadline for paper submissions ? June 15, 2018 Deadline review papers ? August 15, 2018 Deadline revised papers ?

SNIA's 100-Year Archive Survey: Ten Years Later About this webinar Ten years ago, the SNIA 100-Year Archive Task Force developed a survey to identify requirements for long-term digital information retention in the data center; requirements needed to frame the definition of best practices and solutions to the retention and preservation problems unique to large scalable data centers. More than 250 people responded to the 2007 100-Year Archive Survey. That survey has been cited by many organizations over the years for its finding that information is at risk far sooner than most people realize. Now in 2017, SNIA presents a new survey to assess: 1. Who needs to retain long term digital information 2. What information needs to be retained and for how long 3. Whether organizations are able to meet their long-term retention and access needs 4. How long term information is currently stored, secured and preserved Please join SNIA to discuss where we were and where we need to go to preserve and access data over time. Live online Oct 17 1:00 pm EST (United States - New York) or after on demand 75 mins Presented by Thomas Rivera, SNIA-DPCO Co-Chair; Sam Fineberg, SNIA LTR TWG Co-chair; Bob Rogers, CTO, Application Matrix [Register HERE for the Webinar https://www.brighttalk.com/webcast/679/281275?utm_campaign=webcasts-search-results-feed&utm_content=snia%20100%20year%20archive&utm_source=brighttalk-portal&utm_medium=web] [Take the Survey https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/100yrarchivesurvey] -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
