The Coalition for Networked Information (CNI) recently posted the video of a project briefing from its fall meeting that will likely be of interest to readers of this list: "Cultural and Technical Transformations: Benefits from Yale's Linked Data Cross-Collection Discovery Platform" is now openly available:
https://www.cni.org/topics/digital-humanities/cultural-and-technical-transformations-benefits-from-yales-linked-data-cross-collection-discovery-platform
In the presentation, Susan Gibbons (vice provost for collections and scholarly communication) and Robert Sanderson (director for cultural heritage data) describe Yale University's discovery platform that brings together collections from its museums, libraries, archives, and special collections. The system improves upon existing linked open data-based infrastructures by seamlessly integrating full-text search with graph-based queries and demonstrates the value of connecting and enriching data across domain, organizational and institutional boundaries.
All videos from CNI's Fall 2022 Membership Meeting (https://www.cni.org/mm/fall-2022) are now freely and openly available from the event website, and on CNI's
YouTube and
Vimeo channels. Please feel free to share these resources widely!
