March 19 in Olin 703

Agenda:

•  Images in the new Beta website, http://beta.library.cornell.edu/. The usability group plans to test functionality of both platforms (SharedShelf) and how these platform integrate with the website and how VRWG might be involved in this process (Steven)
• VR Page(s) on current CUL catalog (Marsha and Steven)
• A new group (RepoExec) is looking at high level issues around the digital platforms we employ, such as redundancy of systems, issues of discoverability, and preservation of digital content. The group is still trying to figure out the best way to approach these issues, but one thought is to break into groups by format. VRWG could play a significant role in a digital media/images group, but RepoExec has not settled an exact process yet.
• VRA Conference update (Mira)
