10201. Overview of the IU Digital Collections Search (55:44)

Main contributors:
Zhang, Hui, Dunn, Jon
Summary:
Over the years, Indiana University Digital Library Program has created dozens of digital collections for research and preservation. Traditionally, each collection will have its own website for public access. However, as new collections are being added to the repository on a regular basis and as the content becomes more diversified, there is a growing demand for a discovery interface that allows access to all the digital collections maintained by the Digital Library Program. The IU Digital Collections Search has been developed to meet this demand, and serves as the 'one-stop' user interface to all publicly available digitized items. Its index includes more than 65,000 items such as photo, sheetmusic, speech, letter, and papers from the following sources: IU Archives Lilly Library Indiana State Library Indiana State Museum Indiana Historical Society Indiana Magazine of History Archives of Traditional Music Working Men's Institute Calumet Regional Archives at Indiana University Northwest Our presentation will focus on the DLP's work to develop this cross collection discovery interface for digitized items stored in the Fedora repository. William Cowan will discuss the motivation, main features, and future plans of the project. Hui Zhang will talk about the practice on building a Solr index for MODS records and a faceted search interface with Blacklight. The talk will also include a demo of the newly developed search interface.

10211. “Between Large Scale Infrastructures and Local Communities: Informal Roads as Agents of Change” (54:17)

Date:
2019-10-17
Summary:
Dr. Vera Kuklina, Research Professor, Department of Geography, George Washington University While the impact of large infrastructural projects on Siberia’s people and environment has increasingly been gaining attention, important issues related to local infrastructures are less known. Taking the Evenki village Vershina Khandy as an example, Vera Kuklina’s research explores the relationship between different scales of local indigenous communities, extractive industries, and the state. With the introduction of infrastructural development and new transportation technologies, some traditional routes are being used as a base for public road construction, while others are being replaced by new elements: geological clear-cuts, forestry roads, and service roads, and as such, are informally used by motorized vehicles. These informal roads continue to serve as mediators between the village and large-scale infrastructural projects (e.g., the Baikal-Amur Mainline during the Soviet period, and more recently the Power of Siberia gas pipeline construction). The analysis and observations in this talk are based on materials gathered during summer 2019 field work, which included interviews with local leaders, hunters, and fishermen; travelling by different transportation modes; and participation in local subsistence activities. Besides her post at GWU, Vera Kuklina is also Senior Research Associate at the V.B. Sochava Institute of Geography of the Siberian Branch of Russian Academy of Sciences. Her research interests include urbanization of indigenous people, traditional land use, socio-ecological systems, cultural geographies of infrastructure and remoteness.

Date:
2019-02-06
Summary:
The current paradigm of political science suggests that authoritarian regimes suppress freedoms of speech and press as significant threats to autocratic survival. However, evidence now suggests that autocratic governments can exploit such ostensibly democratic institutions in new and surprising ways. Among the most salient examples are Russia and China where media outlets (even the freest ones) figure in the autocratic toolbox, a phenomenon that lends credence to the idea of self-development of non-democratic regimes. Valerii Nechai is a doctoral candidate in the Department of Applied Political Science at the Higher School of Economics in Moscow. His research addresses the interaction of media and politics.
