PSA for #code4lib: it's time for basic server maintenance, so you may notice a few interruptions.

@hvdsomp Some are installing (Cloudflare) Turnstile(s) to redirect bots to. There was a presentation at #code4lib a few weeks ago about it, after this blog post: bibwild.wordpress.com/2025/01/ .

Darf ich vorstellen: codeberg.org/weirdfox/mfs

Ein Tool, mit dem man Metadaten herunterladen kann. Gerade nur Publikationen über DOI von Crossref / DataCite / OpenAlex, wird aber in alle möglichen Richtungen erweitert. Nutze es um Rust zu lernen, ist aber ernst gemeint :)

Momentan eine sehr Alpha-Version verfügbar, von jeglicher produktiven Nutzung ist stark abzuraten.

Ich freue mich über Tipps, Ideen, Kritik!

Über neue Releases wird hier ebenfalls berichtet.

Loved the "Scaffolding Possibility: Systems, Stress, and Small Acts of Care" post by @platypus

"we are the people building small parts of the environment in which those around us live every day. If we’re not building systems, can we build scaffolds to get people to the things they need to live and thrive? Whether it’s just in a place designers didn’t expect them to go or somewhere they were actively shut out of?"

The first alpha version of Skosmos 3 has been published! This release provides a peek into the upcoming next major version of the Skosmos publishing tool for SKOS controlled vocabularies.

The release features a reimplemented front-end with a fresh layout and improved accessibility, as well as many architectural improvements and modernization of the codebase.

It, uh, probably isn't ethical to host #Code4Lib in the US next year.

US academics also aren't going to have much in the way of travel funds, either.

Can we talk about an online-only conference now?

Maintenance is done; server packages have been updated and we're now running the latest v4.3.6.

The #Code4Lib pet tax ++++ #c4l25

A thank you slide with three dogs who are some variation of black or brown and white staring up so hopefully at the camera. One is a small pittie, one is some kind of terrier mix, and one is a fluffier mutt. Their names are Norman (pitt), Chicken (littler terrier type), and Martin (bigger and fluffier)

#Code4Lib is a very special place where breakouts can be:

- ArchivesSpace Discussion w/Program Team Devs (Friend Center 108)
- How to Index Subject Headings (Friend Center 109)
- How to Defend Yourself Against a Dagger-Armed Brigand in Quattrocento Italy (Reprise) (Courtyard)
- Digitization Workflows (Friend Center 110)
- Local and Open Source Discovery Systems (Friend Center 111)

etc. #c4l25 (once you see it)

Really enjoying all of the talks about dealing with bots at this year's #Code4Lib conference. Very relatable, unfortunately

presenter on LCSH remapping -- talking about the problem many of us encounter with shared cataloguing overwriting remediated headings -- and by implication are about to encounter in managing questionable LCSH revisions in the new regime.

First questioner is on that exact matter.

I'm not at this year (and will be with family rather than at work during much of the conference) but I'm looking forward to watching some of today's talks (2025.code4lib.org/schedule/day ) live, like @platypus 's opening keynote and Monique Rio's talk on subject heading remapping. And I look forward to catching up on some of the later talks on Code4Lib's Youtube channel, after I return to work: youtube.com/code4lib

I am here at #Code4Lib! I have hugged friends! I have eaten food! I have applied my backup text method because there’s no presenter view.

Selfie of me in a mask and big glasses and headphones. I’m wearing a blue jean jacket over a dress. The jean jacket has a dove pin.

Going to a conference this week? Why not back up your phone tonight! #code4lib in particular but also just a good idea for life.

I will be striking on March 10, but I do want to join #code4lib remotely, on that day. Perhaps I should call it a "side project"?
