Two new videos from CNI’s spring membership meeting have been posted:

-Is the Researcher Human? Is the Librarian? Bots, Conversational User Interfaces, and Virtual Research Assistants, Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe (UIUC), Jason Griffey (Harvard)), Emily King (College of Southern Nevada), Michael Schofield (LibUX) Information seeking, retrieval, analysis, and decision-making are often discussed as human activities; however, increasingly humans rely on automation, technology surrogates, and artificial intelligence for these activities. Bots and conversational user interfaces are beginning to emerge as service surrogates in libraries. As these trends grow, libraries and information providers face questions that will change practices while potentially expanding opportunities for services. This video explores the implications of these emerging technologies and their applications for libraries and information providers.

-A Linked Data Approach for Humanities Data, Sayeed Choudhury (Johns Hopkins University) & Jaap Geraerts (University College London) The Archaeology of Reading team returns to CNI to discuss the use of linked data models and protocols to connect the various data in their innovative digital research environment, developed to research the reading practices of two prominent sixteenth century scholars. In this video, they describe the use of linked data models and protocols to connect data, facilitating study of the scholars’ pathways through content, and they explain how the systematic progression of supporting increasingly complex scholarly use cases represents an important exemplar for levering extensible, common infrastructure across a diverse range of humanities data.
