 Hi, my name is Jen Diamond, and as of August, I'm a developer at the UCLA library. Woo! Yes, I get to pension some day who knew that word still existed. So my team is working on a very important project for the library, and we chose an open source solution to implement it. The project is to create a digital repository for millions of rare and unique objects that UCLA has, and they have a huge incredible collection of treasures. Previously, these collections were only available to be viewed by researchers and students because they're incredibly fragile. You touch this medieval manuscript and it disintegrates in your hand. You have to go to a special part of the library and put on white gloves and look at it on a pillow. We want all these resources to be available to everyone all over the world. Many of these collections have already been digitized and stored on an existing website, but that site's about 15 years old now, and it's tightly coupled, this horribly old operating system, and it makes updating it and maintaining it incredibly difficult. Because we're a library, we have to be a reliable source for locating data and storing these treasures long term, so disaster recovery is not the same as digital preservation, as my co-worker, Hardy Prudinger, has said over and over. To rebuild our repository, we chose the open source solution called Samvera. It's a versatile and feature rich solution that is being used by institutions worldwide to provide access to their digital content. It's being used by like-minded institutions like all these listed here, and because so many institutions are involved in this community, we all contribute to long lasting solutions. Samvera is primarily used in libraries and digital repositories. It allows storage of any type of digital files for the purposes of access and archiving, and it's suited to both large and small collections. Our collection's quite large. So, the stack. Slide please. So, our stack of our project is based around four major components. The Fedora repository software, which provides a robust and durable repository layer for persisting and managing digital objects. Solar index, which provides screaming fast searches. It's what Elasticsearch runs on, I believe, and it's also open source. And TripleIF provides access to high quality image resources. When you go to the show page, you can get a huge image of these ancient artifacts and zoom in onto like the button that someone is wearing in 1920 and see that it's, oh, it's a tiny bird. Blacklight provides faceting, searching, browsing, and tailored views. And it's a Ruby on Rails engine, so we have entered into a modern phase at the library. The library's also starting to use Agile for the first time, which is propelling our project forward faster than any other project that the library's had previously. And we're lucky to be working with a consulting company called DCE, Digital Curation Experts. Some of their developers were even responsible for writing Samvera and Blacklight from scratch, so we get to leverage their expertise in a very direct way. So this project is about bringing the treasures that UCLA Library possesses in the world for anyone to discover and create with. Lisa McCauley, the woman who I work with and is the lead of this project, is an incredible woman and she is just projecting this project forward very quickly. Our motto is higher education is a non-profit organization working to improve our society through teaching people skills and knowledge, but most importantly teaching people how to learn. End of presentation. Thank you.
