Brainstorming Notes from 4/20 Call

Thanks to all for the great brainstorming session for our planned Standards and Practices “In the Thicket of It” poster for iPRES. Using the graphical representation of a long-living hardwood like a bristlecone pine tree, our members names would serve as nutrients in the soil for the roots (representing aggregated membership groups such as academic libraries, government, non-profits, etc). Main trunks would represent major areas explored within our group such as standards, unique content classes, and physical media. Smaller branches off the main trunks would be specific projects – such as the PDF/A report for the standards, optical media for the physical media, software based art for content classes, etc.


Each project would list (via bullets in leaves or other easy to read display) how it came to be, what the main area of discussions were and what the outputs were (reports, discussion, blog posts, etc).


The poster name “In the Thicket of It” (which Kate just made up after the call and is by no means the final name) could refer to both the botanical representation of the data in tree form but also our main message: S&P members are active practitioners – right in the thick of it, get it? – working on moving the work forward on real world issues. We would want to showcase that the needs of the group germinate in conversations, the results of which are resources and activities that benefit not only the working group members but also the community-at-large.
