2018-03-13 Cultural collections #16

Closed ekrimmel closed 6 years ago

ekrimmel commented 6 years ago

Want a webinar discussing using Arctos for cultural collections, including ethnology, fine art, etc.

ekrimmel commented 6 years ago

@AJLinn I am going to go ahead and mark you down as willing to present a webinar on this--OK? We are scheduled out until late winter or early spring 2018, so it wouldn't be for a few months at the earliest.

AJLinn commented 6 years ago

Great! That will give me time to create a list of topics and sequences to hit so I'm sure to get it all. I'd welcome suggestions from others who have done these as to how to develop your script and keep track of time!

ekrimmel commented 6 years ago

Sounds good! We can return to this early 2018 to schedule a firm date.

After this last webinar there was a motion to keep track of time by having @campmlc punch whomever was taking too long. Not sure how this will work remotely, but I think the concept is too good not to use.

I like the big hook idea, myself . . .

Along these lines, the question came up in yesterday's webinar about publishing cultural collections data to data aggregators (VertNet, GBIF, iDigBio). I brought up that the VertNet folks have experimented with that, or at least they tried to get funding to do so. I'm not sure what actually has been done in that regard. Perhaps @dbloom or @tucotuco can comment?

I'd be really interested in this topic. Right now we don't push anything to any data aggregators, but I want to do it to the Reciprocal Research Network at UBC (https://www.rrncommunity.org). AMNH, the Burke, Penn Museum, NMNH, and NMAI are all big collections in the US with similar kinds of holdings as ours and I really want to get our collections included.

I'd love to hear how getting into the others used by nat hist collections could use our data as well. The majority of our collections are made from materials curated in all of your collections, so I think they could be valuable.

Thanks!

We could ask Dave or John if they would be willing to participate in this webinar and talk about this for 10-15 min? @dbloom @tucotuco

dbloom commented 6 years ago

We're interested. It's just a matter of scheduling, but we'd like to learn more.

Potential abstract: Arctos is both a community and a collection management information system. It provides fundamental research infrastructure for biodiversity and cultural data, and is intended for curators, collection managers, investigators, educators, and anyone interested in natural and cultural history. Over 3 million records are publicly available from 20+ collaborating institutions.

This webinar will present an overview of Arctos as a collection management system for cultural institutions. In addition to hosting cultural collections records online, Arctos provides tools for managing cultural collections, and features such as accession and loan transactions, linking media and publications to records, and object tracking will be briefly demonstrated. The webinar will also cover ways to document regulations that commonly apply to cultural collections, such as NAGPRA and federal repository agreements.

@AJLinn feel free to edit or completely change the above abstract for your March webinar (shot in the dark from my non-cultural collection background). Once it is ready I will pass it on to iDigBio to update the calendar event. Also, if you want to loop in @dbloom and @tucotuco for discussion around serving cultural collns data to aggregators/Reciprocal Research network...go for it! (Webinar scheduled for March 13 @1pm)

Thanks @ebraker [inserts in bold / deletions in brackets] @sjshirar please also let me know if you have edits and/or suggestions for additional topics.
