OPENING


The meeting began at 8:00pm  11/17/2013


ATTENDING
Sharon Routh, Tricia Smith and Robert Waltz. Brendon Gilliams


AGENDA
 I Presentation
 II Imaging Specifications  
 III Review of metadata standards
 IV Evaluation of Technologies
 V Collection Policy
 VI Meeting for Presentation


I. Presentation has been started. We need to determine what to name it. We should meet later in the week to finalize presentation


II. The quality of the scans using 24bit color is substandard. The original documents were professionally printed on 20 pound paper. The ink has bled through the page and, when scanned, creates significant distortion of the original.  Using 600ppi Black/White tiff scanning, we were able to generate a clean copy of the original that will be sufficient for Optical Character Recognition software.  We will write up recommendations for the future, but for this assignment, due to technological and time constraints, we will only be displaying Black/White images of the newsletters


III. The standards have been added to and are in progress.


IV. The work is in progress. Document has been shared and several sections are looking very good.
a. It would be really cool to have certain plugins enabled.
b. Coins tags
c. Item Order
e. Library of Congress Subject Headings
f. OAI-PMH Repository
g. Collection Tree
h. Dublin Core Extended


V. Review Collection Policy so that Tricia can publish it to the blog

VI. We will meet on Thursday Night at 9:20PM
