New article published
Published:
Here’s an article that was just published in the Journal of Library Metadata, Western Name Authority File: A Pilot Regional Name Authority Project. This provides an overview of the IMLS-funded Western Name Authority project that Jeremy Myntti and I have been working on for the past two years. The article is appearing in a forthcoming special issue on authority control, and it is wonderful to be included and see the other articles on authority control in digital libraries being published by colleagues.
Digital Matters Faculty Grant!
Published:
I was awarded a Digital Matters Faculty Grant to support transcription work for a collection of mining records from 1900-1919. I’m hoping that this will help us provide more information about these records, which are already digitized. Being able to have some dedicated funds for transcription will also help us release the data associated with the collection, and I hope it will be of interest to people who are studying the history of labor in the Mountain West as well as providing a regional database that can be used at the University of Utah for visualizations and other Collections as Data explorations. Work on this will start in the fall semester, 2019.
