Summary
Report of Conference Call
January 30, 2002
1. Status Report on NEH Records
Matt reported 67 completed records with 12 in the holding pen.
Patricia was rejecting 14 records and processing 2. Chuck was
processing 5 records that looked good and is now tackling a final
pool of 10. Assuming that 5 of Chuck's 10 came through, this would
give us (67+12) 79 records with which to open a prototype to invited
guests (if not the world). The group thought this was fine.
Chuck would be reporting his progress and any questions to the list.
We plan to close out the NEH list by Friday Feb. 15 and will next
have a call Wed., Feb. 20 at 4pm (EST).
2. Prototype
We encourage ourselves to check the Search Interface
and comment aloud on what we find. [For example, I can get nothing on my screen from the URL this morning].
Although a fully live browse function could not be implemented before
April, a "static browse" function could be rigged up once all the NEH data
was in.
3. Getty
Once Getty is closed we'd move on to the 25 Getty records (David
volunteers to find email addresses for the contacts). John is still
looking for a grad student to help with the contacts.
