Annotated Bibliography Options
I'm a big Zotero fan. I have two gripes with Zotero.
- Annotated Bibliographies are hard to create because one can't use notes. There are some other options. Here are two guides.
- https://open.byu.edu/rapidwriting/annotated_bibliography
- https://guides.zsr.wfu.edu/zotero/annotated-bib
- I want to create annotated bibliographies with Chapters and which show: annotations, abstracts, and can be sorted by keywords or custom fields.
- Filtering resources so as to edit them or edit in bulk.
I started looking at biblatex options. Jabref is the leading software I have found. It does not have an easy sync for PDF files in a team. Here are some latex templates. It would be good if I could find a flexible template in latex.

Craft day!
Katja is keen to remind me at Home Depot has a craft for kids on the first weekend of the month.

Mode vs. Medium
Two terms which seem to be very confusable to me are Medium and Mode.
Medium relates to Format and the carrier. whereas mode is more like the classification of mediums by how they are experience. Mode related to the mode of communication. For example, Visual, linguistics, spatial, aural, or gestural.
Mode is also not to be confused with mode of issuance, which relates to if the resource is released as a single unit or a multipart unit—often over time.

Text object metadata
I find that this text object metadata scheme might be useful for describing corpora.

I should look at these auxiliary METS extensions and include them in OLAC discussions
Rights Metadata and Rights Vocabularies
In the fall term of 2022 I took a course on Metadata at UNT. In that course I encountered an interesting Rights Metadata schema create my the California Digital Libraries Project called copyrightMD. This schema is interesting because it articulates where a resource was created.
his is currently on the web here:
https://cdlib.org/groups/rights-management-group-copyrightmd/
But that website seems to not render 100% so I looked it up in the Internet Archive here:
http://web.archive.org/web/20220119153216mp_/https://cdlib.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/copyrightMD_user_guidelines.pdf
CopyrightMD Has been mentioned in the following academic publications:
- https://www.getty.edu/research/publications/electronic_publications/intrometadata/rights.pdf
- Developing a Rights Metadata Dictionary for Digital Surrogates https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/19386380903095024
I find the list of rights metadata schemas list in the library guide at UCF very helpful:
https://guides.ucf.edu/metadata/adminMetadata
For rights metadata, the common metadata standards such as Dublin Core include a “rights” field. Any known intellectual property rights held for the data, including access rights and rights holder, can be specified in that field. Some digital repositories provide an opportunity to assign a Creative Commons license to the materials or datasets deposited in the repository.
There are other Right Metadata standards including CopyrightMD, METSRights, ONIX For Publications Licenses, Open Digital Rights Language and XrML.
https://wiki.creativecommons.org/wiki/CC_REL
However I found that the MEts Rights schema was not linked appropriately:
https://www.loc.gov/standards/rights/
https://www.loc.gov/standards/rights/METSRights.xsd
https://www.loc.gov/standards/rights/2005version/METSRights.xsd
I personally find the statements at rightsstatements.org to be limiting:
https://rightsstatements.org/en/
The educational use permitted one is very confusing: https://rightsstatements.org/page/InC-EDU/1.0/?language=en
Note that Creative Commons used to have one like this but they did away with the whole educational use series of licenses, but I can't find them at the moment. I would have thought they might have been here: https://creativecommons.org/retiredlicenses/

Data Sharing History in Linguistics
In their article: Burke, Mary, Hannah Tarver, Mark Edward Phillips, and Oksana Zavalina. 2022. “Using Existing Metadata Standards and Tools for a Digital Language Archive: A Balancing Act.” The Electronic Library ahead-of-print (ahead-of-print). doi:10.1108/EL-02-2022-0028.
Burke et al state the following:
Most data collected by linguists was not traditionally shared, other than through secondary resources (e.g. journal articles, conference presentations, etc.). Source data was collected by researchers and shared within a team of researchers or with individual linguists upon request.
This framing of the narrative suggests that linguists have always been hoarders. I wonder if this is really true. For example, another narrative is possible. That is, that somewhere around the 1970/1980s when the "PhD explosion" (radical increase in awarded PhDs) and the "Publish or Parish" phenomena started to interact that we start to see larger projects and also hoarding of "data". Prior to the 1950 we see lots of collections of anthropological (including audio) materials deposited in archives. So, I wonder, is the lack of sharing resources and the lack of archiving resources actually a peculiarity of the baby-boomer generation?
This made me want to know when the publish-or-parish and metric based tenure process started to squeeze candidates.
