Code4Lib Conference

The video from the Code4Lib Conference is now on Archive.org. Note that you can get the MPEG2 high def format there. Some talks include:

• MARCThing Casey Durfee discusses MARCThing, a self-contained web service which aims to do for MARC and Z39.50 what Solr did for searching.
• OpenURL Ross Singer and Jonathan Rochkind describe Ümlaut, an open source OpenURL middleware layer intended to improve the link resolving chain by analyzing incoming citations and intelligently querying resources to better enable access to them.
• Blacklight Bess Sadler describes Blacklight, a Solr based OPAC replacement being developed by University of Virginia Library.
• Scriblio Casey Bisson describes Scriblio, the OPAC replacement based on the WordPress authoring system.
• A Metadata Registry Jon Phipps gives an introduction to the Metadata Registry, an open source vocabulary, metadata schema, and DC application profile manager and registry.

And plenty more.
