Understanding AtoM to RiC Mappings in Mnemian Working with linked data is different. We believe that starting with a simple subset of RiC is a practical way of seeing results quickly.

Join the next Mnemian workshop on January 29th to join the discussion and provide feedback on mappings to help shape a new path from ISAD to RiC. Register here to come listen or contribute! www.eventbrite.com/e/understand...

β€œLonnie G. Bunch, the secretary, has the support of the Board of Regents in his authority and management of the Smithsonian.” The message was clear: Trump does not control the nation’s museums.

In an act of resistance against Trump, the Smithsonian pushed back after the president claimed he had fired Kim Sajet, director of the National Portrait Gallery. β€œAll personnel decisions are made by and subject to the direction of the secretary, with oversight by the board,” the institution stated.

We favour collaboration over individual effort. Open source software allows people to collaborate in a way that is more difficult with proprietary code. This is vital for the cultural memory sector to govern its own domain. #opensource #digipres #archives

Towards a Manifesto for May Day -
OSS is open to scrutiny. Anyone can evaluate, audit, use, improve, adapt, and share our code. This improves trust, reliability and transparency, between software developers and organisations, and between organisations and their users. #opensource #digipres #archives

Happy May Day! May is also Maintainer Month, highlighting the work of those who care for open source projects. Being open isn’t the only way to contribute to a practice of care but we think it is the best way. Today we are going to post some of our reasons why. #open #opensource #digipres #archives

We started in the darkness of January and end in the wonderful lightness of March!

It's Monday night and it's 5pm so it's time for the final episode of 'How light is it in #Orkney at 5pm this week?'

The clocks have changed, spring has arrived and it is THIS LIGHT! πŸ’‘β€οΈπŸŒž

It's like there's magic in the air around us. A few weeks ago we were in darkness and now it's Monday AND it's 5pm AND it's time for WEEK ELEVEN of 'How light is it in #Orkney at 5pm this week?'

Anyway the most important thing is that it's Monday night and it's February AND it's 5pm so it must be time for EPISODE FIVE of 'How light is it in #Orkney at 5pm this week?'

No we can't believe it either. It's not even dark yet.

IT IS LITERALLY THIS LIGHT. πŸ’‘
