- Archives: Workflow is working well.
- Is a another curation across collection meeting needed, or can curators just check Hydra to see what is currently in and adjust their plans based on that?
- No replies. Michelle noted this idea posed by Michelle was good.
- Should people be allowed to download images? If so what quality do we want to provide?
- At the start of the project there was excitement about a more open access goal.
- Rights and Reproduction (R&R) tends to cost more in salary than is gained from fees.
- Jim asked about embedding metadata in the photos with notes about the CHF being the creator if the image was used widely.
- It was asked how likely users would be to check this
- Another issue brought up was how many online tools strip said metadata.
- Hillary mentioned an intermediary step to have users check a box to acknowledged the R&R terms and details
- This was mentioned due to scholars and publishers often contacting R&R to confirm the permissions. This might be something they can point to.
- JSTOR was specifically mentioned as an example.
- Public domain works should be clear that they do not need any permissions
- Should R&R data be copied into Hydra or linked to the website?
- Anna mentioned that the rights metadata could be there and a link be placed to full R&R data on another page.
- Sarah brought up the difference between the legal requirements and the best practice ethical goals when dealing with this issue and that is a good idea to distinguish between them.
- A broad concern was to make sure that the user understands what their rights are in regard to the image, be as clear as possible what they can do.
- An example was mentioned by Jim about another library adding a copyright warning on public domain works. (I forgot to type the full name of the University library in question -Dan)
- A citation link/page/object was mentioned as a way to make things easier. (Not sure how this compares to the current citation tool export links. -Dan)
- This was mentioned due to scholars and publishers often contacting R&R to confirm the permissions. This might be something they can point to.
- At the start of the project there was excitement about a more open access goal.
- A desire for analytics about downloads and other use was brought up.

- A date slider was mentioned as a desired tool for the date facet.
- Date boxes would also be included.
- Anna explained how fuzzy dates are handled in the index (1910s indexes as 1910, 1911, etc in the index)
- Do we need to bring content from the current website collections into Hydra?
- Archives: No
- Photos: No
- Museum: No
- Modern Library: No
- Moving forward there will be user groups for the linked data work.
- When Sufia 7 is ready there will be workflow training on the new aspects.
- Oral histories will wait until after the soft launch for integration.
- A second developer is in the works thanks to Gore fund and board money. They might work on oral histories.
