I?m writing this message from my covered deck on a beautiful July day. During July, I?m working 2-3 days a week at my new job and taking some long weekends to settle into our new home. So far, we are loving Omaha and having all of our kids around. However, as I write, I?m mindful of all the wonderful people and opportunities we left behind when we decided to pursue this new adventure. In the Executive Board?s quest to simplify how NDLA operates and serves its members, during August, we are asking the membership to vote to approve the consolidation of the constitution and bylaws into a single, more usable document. I want to take a moment to thank the Constitution, Bylaws, and Policies Committee members for their hard work on this and other aspects of the restructuring proposal that have gone into place this year. Their attention to detail and passion for this work is one example of the organizational spirit that makes me love and value NDLA. At our last board meeting, we were discussing how NDLA serves its members beyond the Annual Conference and how we can make NDLA leadership positions appealing to a broader cross-section of members. Somebody asked the difficult question, ?If NDLA disbanded, how would your life be different? Would your professional life be worse without the existence of the organization?? I don?t know your answer to that question, but as I start over in a new state and take the time to reflect upon my eight years of working in North Dakota, I can honestly answer that both my professional and personal life are richer because of the people I met and worked with in NDLA. I remember the advice I was given at my first conference clearly. Go to the SLAYS section meeting, listen and learn, and ?keep your head down and refuse to make eye contact when they ask for officer volunteers.? I didn?t keep my head down. Now, I?m President! I believe you get out of an organization what you put into it and I wanted to give NDLA everything I possibly could. So, in my final message to the membership, I ask you all to lift your heads and volunteer to do everything in your power to help NDLA become the professional organization that North Dakota libraries need today and in future. You will receive much more than you give! Thank you for the opportunity to serve as your NDLA President.I know I could have done more.I know I have made missteps (most notably in parliamentary procedures), but I have been proud to give my efforts towards helping improve the organization and North Dakota libraries. I have not been a perfect President, but I have loved every minute of it! Summer is flying by and before you know it the NDLA Annual Conference will be upon us. I can?t wait to see you all in person and celebrate all we have accomplished in the past year! The Good Stuff 3 August 2021 2021 NDLA Annual Conference Updates By Traci Lund, past president, NDLA Director, Divide County Public Library Let?s get ready to SLIDE! Yes, you heard that right - SLIDE. At this year?s conference, we will be having a Slide-Off! Grand Forks Public, with their fearless leader Wendy Wendt, have done some amazing new renovations including putting a slide into their beautiful library which we - as civilized, mature librarians - would like to take full advantage of. Let?s see who can slide down the fastest and who has the best landing! Of course, as with anything we crazy (ahem,sophisticated!!) librarians do, costumes are welcome and encouraged.There will be more information on this soon.Watch the listserv as all are welcome to participate. As you can see,we are busy planning a fun-filled conference that all will enjoy. This month is an exceptionally busy month as we have been picking out the breakout session presenters, putting together the timeline schedule, wrapping up the award nominations, and pushing everyone to register. By the way, have you registered for the NDLA annual conference yet? Our president-to-be, Stephanie Galeazzo, has been hard at work getting vendors lined up. If you have a favorite vendor that you would like to see participate in our conference, please reach out so we can send them some information. The more the merrier! I want to take just a quick minute and say, ?Thank you!? to the NDLA Conference committee. This year we have a wonderful group that is making the old saying true - many hands do make light work. I am lucky to have such a great committee that keeps me grounded. This is no small feat and keeps things moving forward. So, a huge THANK YOU to those helping! And finally, a not-so-small side note: Did someone at your library retire? We are looking to recognize those in our library world that have buttoned their cardigan for the last time. If you have an employee that has retired, please email me at [email protected]. If possible, please attach a couple pictures and a brief bio of the employee. We are excited to add this recognition to our conference!

American Library Association Midwinter Meeting, Philadelphia The Good Stuff 9 August 2021 Conversations About EDI: Justice, Equity, and Problem Solving By Karlene Clark, EDI Committee Member Coordinator PRC Reference Services,Chester Fritz Library, UND One could say that there has been a great deal of progress in working towards equity in many areas and across multiple platforms. You could equally say there is a long way to go yet. People are familiar with #BlackLivesMatter and a few others that have been in popular media over the last few years, but equity goes beyond the social cause. Equity looks at both visible and invisible differences in people. To explain, JEDI, is the acronym for justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion. This covers age, race, gender, religion, disabilities (both physical and unseen), socioeconomic, and many more areas. A meme currently circulating shows this example: Examples of ?reality? can be seen in areas where lived experiences for different peoples provide different skill sets. Consider a job application that states a requirement to be able to lift 60 pounds. This may be a situation where a large box of something like paper is delivered, once a week. A disabled person wouldn?t know this based on ?be able to lift 60 pounds? description. That could mean there actually is something heavy they would be expected to lift. ?Equality? says the job description is accurate. ?Equity? would be taking that limit off the job description because maybe the person can?t lift 60 pounds?but they CAN lift 10 pounds. They can still do the job ? it would just take them a few extra trips! To go further, consider handicapped parking or if your organization provides a shuttle. If there are handicapped spots within a few blocks of your building or ?on? your university campus, these may not be proximate to the building or its access points.

  • Application of Link Integrity Techniques from Hypermedia to the Semantic Web
    UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science Department of Electronics and Computer Science A mini-thesis submitted for transfer from MPhil to PhD Supervisor: Prof. Wendy Hall and Dr Les Carr Examiner: Dr Nick Gibbins Application of Link Integrity techniques from Hypermedia to the Semantic Web by Rob Vesse February 10, 2011 UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON ABSTRACT FACULTY OF ENGINEERING AND APPLIED SCIENCE DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMPUTER SCIENCE A mini-thesis submitted for transfer from MPhil to PhD by Rob Vesse As the Web of Linked Data expands it will become increasingly important to preserve data and links such that the data remains available and usable. In this work I present a method for locating linked data to preserve which functions even when the URI the user wishes to preserve does not resolve (i.e. is broken/not RDF) and an application for monitoring and preserving the data. This work is based upon the principle of adapting ideas from hypermedia link integrity in order to apply them to the Semantic Web. Contents 1 Introduction 1 1.1 Hypothesis . .2 1.2 Report Overview . .8 2 Literature Review 9 2.1 Problems in Link Integrity . .9 2.1.1 The `Dangling-Link' Problem . .9 2.1.2 The Editing Problem . 10 2.1.3 URI Identity & Meaning . 10 2.1.4 The Coreference Problem . 11 2.2 Hypermedia . 11 2.2.1 Early Hypermedia . 11 2.2.1.1 Halasz's 7 Issues . 12 2.2.2 Open Hypermedia . 14 2.2.2.1 Dexter Model . 14 2.2.3 The World Wide Web .

  • Orthern Gothic, Italian Renaissance and Beyond Toward a Thick Description of Style
    Originalveröffentlichung in: Chatenet, Monique (Hrsg.): Le gothique de la Renaissance : actes des quatrième Rencontres d'Architecture Européenne, Paris, 12 - 16 juin 2007, Paris 2011, S. 47-64 N orthern Gothic, Italian Renaissance and beyond Toward a thick description of style Stephan Hoppe In 2004, Hellmut Lorenz drew attention to several Central European works of architecture for which the common dichotomous taxonomy of « Gothic » or « Renaissance » as a stylistic category did not seem to function convincingly as a distinction1. Among others, Lorenz pointed to the aedicule on the Bautzen gate tower commissioned by King Matthias Corvinus (1486) (fig. 1) and some of the portals of the Cracow Wawel Castle (ca. 1520/25) (fig. 2) as examples of a « style between the styles ». These were works of architecture on which branch work (Astiuerk), at the time a new development in ornamentation, was closely linked with classical motifs such as columns and entablature details : « Frappierend bleibt die langanhaltende asthetische Faszination an der Verbindung der kiinstlerischen AusdruckmOglichkeiten der beiden Stile, die als Kontrast wie auch in gleichsam amalgamierter Form auftreten konnte. [...] Die Frage ist zu stellen, ob das Fach Kunstgeschichte mit der charakteristischen Eigenart dieser Kunstwerke in angemessener Weise umgegangen ist - und die Antwort darauf kann schwerlich positiv ausfallen » 2. (It is surprising that there has been a long-lasting aesthetic fascination with the combination of the expressive possibilities of the two styles, which could appear as a contrast or in an amalgamated form, as it were [...] We must ask whether the discipline of art history has indeed dealt appropriately with the characteristic distinctive character of these works of art.

  • The Fifteenth-Century Library of Scheyern Abbey
    In Manuscript and Print: The Fifteenth-Century Library of Scheyern Abbey by John Thomas McQuillen A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Art History Department of Art University of Toronto © Copyright by John Thomas McQuillen 2012 In Manuscript and Print: The Fifteenth-Century Library of Scheyern Abbey John Thomas McQuillen Doctor of Philosophy in Art History Department of Art University of Toronto 2012 Abstract This dissertation explores the library of Scheyern Abbey through religious, artistic, bibliographical, and historical paths in order to articulate more clearly the history of book production and library growth during the revolutionary “book age” of the fifteenth century. I have reassembled the now scattered fifteenth-century books from the monastery and examined the entire collection to show how one institution adapted to the increasing bibliographic requirements of the period, first through manuscript and then manuscript and print together. Two sets of library shelfmarks from the fifteenth century, unrecorded until now, physically represent attempts at ordering the Scheyern collection and disregard any differentiation between manuscript and print, proving how the books were utilized by their contemporary audience. In the fifteenth century, Scheyern Abbey subscribed to the so-called Melk Reform, a monastic reform movement that emphasized literacy and the care of books as one of its primary elements. The introduction of the Melk Reform inspired Scheyern’s local book production, which shows a diverse system of both highly trained scribes and many ii anonymous scribes who worked on individual books as part of their round of monastic chores.
