Item Bridge2Hyku Toolkit Pilot Test Report(2019-04-03) Crocken, Todd; Washington, Anne; Wu, Annie; Watkins, Sean; Thompson, Santi; Weidner, Andrew; Vallejo, LeroyTo wrap up phase two, the Bridge2Hyku (B2H) project team at University of Houston (UH) and University of Victoria (UVic) partnered with the Texas Digital Library (TDL) to conduct the B2H Toolkit Pilot Test. The findings of the pilot test are available in this report.Item Bridge2Hyku Tools for Training: Repository Selection, Migration, and Skills for Success(2020-01-25) Washington, Anne; Wu, Annie; Thompson, Santi; Watkins, Sean; Vallejo, LeroyContent migration from proprietary systems to open source repositories remains a barrier for many institutions due to lack of tools, tutorials, and documentation. The University of Houston Libraries, in partnership and consultation with numerous institutions, was awarded an Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) National Leadership/Project Grant to support the creation of the Bridge2Hyku (B2H) Toolkit which aims to remove obstacles to adoption and migration. The Toolkit, which includes general migration strategies and use cases as well as tools for transitioning from CONTENTdm to Hyku, acts as a comprehensive resource to facilitate repository migration. This talk will highlight how the toolkit can be a training resource for repository selection and migration, and will include discussion of the knowledge and skills needed to work on digital repository selection and migration.Item Bridge2Hyku: Building the Bridge towards an Open Source Digital Solution(2019-04-08) Wu, Annie; Thompson, Santi; Weidner, Andrew; Crocken, Todd; Watkins, Sean; Washington, Anne; Vallejo, LeroyThe University of Houston Libraries, in partnership and consultation with numerous institutions, was awarded an Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) National Leadership/Project Grant to support the creation of the Bridge2Hyku (B2H) Toolkit. Content migration from proprietary systems to open source repositories remains a barrier for many institutions due to lack of tools, tutorials, and documentation. The B2H Toolkit, which includes migration strategies and use cases as well as tools for transitioning from CONTENTdm to Hyku, acts as a comprehensive resource to facilitate repository migration. Having reached key milestones, the presenters will showcase the toolkit and describe how it can help institutions complete digital collections migration efficiently. The presenters will also share collaborative strategies with partner institutions in this grant project, and they will discuss sustainability and promotion of the B2H toolkit.Item Bridge2Hyku: Tools and Strategies for Content Migration to Open Source Repository(2019-06-12) Crocken, Todd; Wu, Annie; Thompson, Santi; Watkins, Sean; Washington, Anne; Weidner, Andrew; Vallejo, LeroyThis PowerPoint slide deck was used by Santi Thompson and Annie Wu when presenting at CNI Spring 2019 and at Open Repositories 2019. It provides an overview of the Bridge2Hyku project, including its toolkit and documentation.Item Bridges to Hyku: A Multi-Institutional Effort Towards Migration Tooling(2019-05-22) Crocken, Todd; Seeman, Dean; Thompson, Santi; Vallejo, Leroy; Washington, Anne; Watkins, Sean; Weidner, Andrew; Woodward, Nick; Wu, AnnieThe Bridge2Hyku Project, an IMLS National Leadership/Project Grant (LG-70-17-0217-17), is nearing the end of its second phase and has produced a multifaceted migration toolkit for those planning or implementing a digital asset management system migration. The toolkit contains a software toolkit for migration from CONTENTdm to the Hyku repository as well as a website of information on general system migration considerations and practices. The toolkit is comprised of a standalone desktop application to harvest metadata and digital objects from CONTENTdm and a Rails gem that facilitates importing said harvest into a Samvera repository. After Phase I work of information gathering from grant partners, collaboratively developing use cases and toolkit components, the University of Houston partnered with the University of Victoria and Texas Digital Library to conduct a pilot to test and refine the software in the toolkit. During the pilot, several improvements were made to the toolkit applications with an emphasis on better functionality and stability. As a multi-institutional project team, the panel will discuss the different practices and perspectives employed by these three partners throughout Phase 2. University of Houston’s Content Strategist, Lead Repository Developer, and Metadata Services Coordinator will discuss toolkit development and how the Bridge2Hyku project has helped with their own preparations to move to a Samvera-based platform. University of Victoria’s Head of Metadata will discuss institutional customizations of Hyku and lessons learned during migration so far, while Texas Digital Library’s Senior Software Engineer will describe their participation in the pilot and how consortia play a role in migration workflows. The panel members will explore reasons to migrate, why they chose Hyku to pilot, and how the tools developed help in the overall workflow of migration.Item Strategies and Tools for Metadata Migration Analysis and Harmonization(2019-09) Washington, Anne; Wu, Annie; Thompson, Santi; Crocken, Todd; Watkins, Sean; Vallejo, Leroy; Weidner, AndrewThe University of Houston (UH) Libraries, in partnership and consultation with numerous institutions, was awarded an Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) National Leadership/Project Grant to support the creation of the Bridge2Hyku (B2H) Toolkit. Research shows that institutions are inclined to switch from proprietary digital systems to open source digital solutions. However, content migration from proprietary systems to open source repositories remains a barrier for many institutions because of a lack of tools, tutorials, and documentation. The B2H Toolkit includes general migration strategies and use cases as well as tools specifically designed for transitioning from CONTENTdm, a digital collections management software, to the Hyku digital repository. The toolkit acts as a comprehensive resource to guide migration practitioners in migration planning, metadata analysis and harmonization, and to facilitate the repository migration process. This paper focuses on how the toolkit’s metadata guidelines and migration tools aid in migration planning, metadata analysis, metadata application profile development, metadata harmonization, and bulk ingest of digital objects into Hyku.
