Haggis and Mash

Public Group active 11 years, 3 months ago

There has been quite a bit of interest in a Mashed Library event in Scotland. This group is for those who are interested in either organising or attending such an event, and will include forums to discuss the details – where, when, etc.

    It’s been a long time coming – but it’s finally here – sign up to Haggis and Mash now at http://www.nesc.ac.uk/esi/events/1114/ – 25th Jan at the NeSC e-Science Institute in Edinburgh. We are running this event under the banner ‘Open Edge’ with another event on Open Source software in libraries on the 26th Jan in […]

    I am happy to demo or run a hands-on workshop on setting up faceted search UI + infrastructure based on the work of JISC UX2. The session would involve setting up Blacklight UI, getting it to federate content from Google Books/Zemanta, and deploying Fedora repository and Solr search service. The systems would also be deployed […]

    If people are interested, I can present the open source enrichment plug-in that I have written for Ex Libris Primo. The plug-in works with raw XML data as well as an HTTP based GET request to a Solr search server for data. I am happy to run a live demonstration as well.

    Sure we can do that – am quite happy to do some stuff on use of Evergreen with pre-installed system, Paul Johnson could equally easily include or do something parallel on installing from scratch & getting data into a new install – surprisingly straightforward & very quick indeed if you do it from a base […]

    That would be great Mark – definitely take you up on this, so please keep 25th free! For those who just want to dive straight in with the client (and not worry about the install) perhaps we could have at least one system up and running in advance?

    As per recent twitter convo, we could do something on installing Evergreen image in virtual box (from http://bit.ly/ddGqjP), putting some marc & item data in there & runnning the Evergreen client against it to give people a hands on look at the system.. with a small amount of work we could probably also hook up […]

    We are collaborating with JISC and SCONUL on Haggis and Mash now, bringing a specific (but not sole) focus on Open Source in libraries. I’ve posted a (very) draft agenda at http://www.mashedlibrary.com/wiki/index.php?title=Haggis_and_Mash We’ve got some ideas for filling speaking slots, but suggestions for both speakers and what people would like…[Read more]

    Since it has been a bit quiet on this front, I just thought I’d post to confirm the event is definitely going ahead, 25th Jan at the NeSC e-Science Institute in Edinburgh. Sessions and format is under active discussion at the moment and hope to have something to post very soon.

    I personally enjoyed the topic mapping presentation that Michael Fourman gave at the Repository Fringe event recently – slightly out of the comfort zone of most of the repo folks, but has huge potential.

    Also very happy to help with organisation if you like…..

    Thanks Nicola – definitely sounds good – think something ‘geo’ would go down very well – we had a lot of interest when John McKerrell presented something around geo stuff at Liver and Mash in Liverpool, so I think there would definitely be some interest around this.

    Some of us at EDINA would be very happy to lead something (a workshop maybe?) in a geo direction. We run a great API for Unlock (http://unlock.edina.ac.uk/) and are about to launch AddressingHistory with an open API from the outset (more info here: http://addressinghistory.blogs.edina.ac.uk/, particularly see this post:…[Read more]
