- Abstract:
This chapter will use the University of Notre Dame’s Marble (Museum, Archives, Rare Books, and Library Exploration platform) project as a useful framework for exploring some ethical cataloging concerns of biographical metadata as they relate to linked data in libraries, archives, and museums (LAM). During the development of this platform, extensive user testing revealed frequent requests for additional information about content creators. While a linked data solution could be deployed to enhan…

- Abstract:
This chapter offers a glimpse into using an integrated project-management approach to migrate from a legacy homegrown system to a vendor-supported electronic resource management (ERM) system supported by a user community. Regardless of the level of project management adoption at one’s institution, the readers will gain insight into how project management can create great value by efficiently organizing the work, improving communication through intentional planning, and meeting deadlines throu…

- Abstract:
This report reflects the deliberations and conclusions of an NSF-wide Workshop to explore the prospects for a common response to the requirements for public access to research data. Representatives of almost all of the NSF Directorates convened in Alexandria, VA, February 22 and 23, 2018, to review a diverse and multi-disciplinary collection of projects and workshops that have been conducted in the recent past. All of these activities were focused on aspects of public access to research data,…

- Abstract:
Purpose
Academic BIPOC librarians oftentimes struggle to envision themselves and navigate in White-dominant spaces due to deficit thinking. To better understand how diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA) efforts can bolster structural change in academic libraries, the two BIPOC authors opted to lean on an asset-based exercise–imagining a positive work environment made possible through a library staffed entirely by BIPOC individuals.

- Abstract:
“The Gregorian calendar is the calendar used in most of the world. It was introduced in October 1582 by Pope Gregory XIII as a modification of, and replacement for, the Julian calendar. The principal change was to space leap years differently so as to make the average calendar year 365.2425 days long, more closely approximating the 365.2422-day ‘tropical’ or ‘solar’ year that is determined by the Earth’s revolution around the Sun.”
“Because the date of East…

- Description:
This is a Distant Reader “study carrel” containing the works of Homer (The Iliad and The Odyssey) as gotten from Project Gutenberg. As such it includes plain text versions of the original files, various extractions (parts-of-speech, named entities, statistically significant keywords, etc.), and a relational database file. Given this study carrel, the hard work for doing concordancing, topic modeling, semantic indexing, full text indexing, and collocations has already been done. Use …

- Abstract:
A November 18, 2021, workshop by Donald Brower, PhD, University of Notre Dame.
What is TeX? TeX is a system to produce formatted documents. While it can produce all kinds of documents, such as Articles, Slides, CVs, Handouts, and Exams, it is especially useful for items with mathematical formula (but that is not a requirement). TeX is a mark-up language, akin to HTML. One writes a text file containing commands that tell TeX how to format the file. Then one…

- Greene, Edward Lee, 1843-1915.
- Abstract:
In addition to botanical specimens, [Edward Lee Greene (August 20, 1843–November 10, 1915)] collected rare books and herbals on pre-Linnean botany. He began building his personal library early in his career as a botanist, and by the time his career was drawing to a close, he felt that his library was “the pioneer among American collections of pre-Linnaean, and rare though important post-Linnaean, books of botany.” He managed to assemble an excellent collection of journals, monograp…

- Abstract:
Over time, the University of Notre Dame’s academic departments have changed names, split, ceased, or been formed. This document traces the genealogy, if you will, of Notre Dame’s academic departments from 1920 to 2022. Information presented here was gathered from the University of Notre Dame’s Undergraduate Bulletins of Information held by the University Archives.

- Abstract:
The authors of this chapter undertook a study to determine how well library school education is preparing students for electronic resources (ER) librarianship. The study provides an analysis of 100 ER librarian position descriptions to determine the requisite skills, training, and knowledge, and then an analysis of how well those skills are covered in the ALA-accredited Master’s level library programs through their course descriptions. The authors also examine ways to define, explore, and…

- Abstract:
Many libraries today are inundated with increasing number of tasks, projects, and initiatives through which they hope to achieve their mission and strategic vision only to find themselves losing focus and drowning in the volume of work. Hesburgh Libraries at the University of Notre Dame struggled with absorbing an exponentially growing number of projects and aligning them with institutional strategic initiatives and goals. The increasing number of projects and the relatively stable size of th…
