Updates from working groups

DAWG: Yoko and Elyse co-chairing. Emailing both is fine. Working on how to better on-board new folks, since this is a new system. Some new committee members are new to the CSU so need more information. Met with Dave over the summer to make sure the WG is in alignment with the migration cycle. Finalizing the metadata profile and the metadata dictionary.
Will add the metadata guidelines to the Digital Repositories guide: https://dev.repositoryguide.calstate.edu/scholarworks/collections

Have some folks sitting in on the committee that are not “official” members. Also have some folks from the Linked Open Data Task Force that will sit in on the meetings.

Dave is working on the bulk ingest, also looking at ContentDM migrations and how DAWG can support them.

IRWG: Continuing to work on the Digital Repository Guide. How do we work together to make the DAWG side of things and the ScholarWorks side of things work well together. We should talk about structure and plan this out. Maybe we have some co-working sessions?

PIG: Not a lot of updates right now. Gearing up for the first editor round table. Opportunity for editors to come together. Mostly focusing on OJS: brief overview, importance of the MOU, potentially have some breakout rooms for specific issues like workflow, faculty advising, working with students. October 4th is the date.

Don’t have a big plan for the Spring: maybe working with students, outreach to students. Could do additional programming in the future. Goal is to open this up CSU-wide.

ScholComm: ScholComm is BACK! Cyril asked for feedback on the scope of the committee. Discussed the scope and the goals. Nine people on the committee. Completed a logic frame and brainstormed around priorities. What would be the best for supporting library workers here? What does this look like?
Also discussed engagement between ScholComm and SRDC. Transformative agreements are important with the work we do. Recommendations for programs and policies. Interest in the group for an OA mandate/policy. Also discussed OSF/NSF work around a national repository - the Work that Jennifer Beamer is doing!
