Another great mainstream media story about LUX: https://t.co/fa4CNPzKWN :)

Off to England to talk about LUX with... British Library, V&A, National Gallery, National Archives, Natural History Museum, Oxford University, Cambridge University, and so on. So happy it's gaining traction, and excited to see who's next. https://t.co/HaDO62WwhI #YaleLUX

In its first two weeks, LUX ( https://t.co/HaDO62X47g) Yale's new public knowledge graph for cultural and natural history, has had 10ks of uses, and prompted great interaction including offers of donations and people adding to our records about themselves ... Are you in LUX?

Arches-related #job: @HistoricEngland is seeking a Manager to lead Heritage Data programme projects. This includes Arches for HERs, a customized version of the Arches platform purpose-built for UK Historic Environment Records. Apply by June 18:

Yale Launches LUX, A Powerful New Search Tool For Cross-Collection Exploration https://t.co/h8l2ssUH3X #libraries #YaleLux

A couple of media pieces about LUX so far: * Popular Science: https://t.co/ruDvFflIWv * Yale News: https://t.co/Mhfo07Ys2J I'm still smiling from the popsci one's use of all my examples and quotes. Chuffed they used my pinboard analogue.

Very cool to see #YaleLUX launched. It is a single resource to search across Yale museums, libraries & archives. And @iiif_io compliant! Wonderful resource.

Great new tool to take a look at Yale collections 🧐

I am happy to answer any questions, or get any feedback about it, here or via other channels. Yale is committed to engagement and transparency, to collaboration and diversity... all so necessary for transformative work like #YaleLUX.

More than 100 people directly contributed to the success of the work, over a span of 5 years. The university and the Mellon Foundation believed... and the collaboration delivered. Even more... the source will be open as soon as possible, so anyone can follow our lead w/ #YaleLUX

It is built on the shoulders of giants that I've had the great pleasure and privilege to be part of: the amazing community around #IIIF [follow next week's conference!] and the equally amazing participants in https://t.co/akIJVGsdRl.

It's built around two core visionary principles: that knowledge should be easily, freely accessible to anyone, anywhere at any time; and that all knowledge is connected. We have realized both, and so much more.

I moved to Yale during the heart of the pandemic for the opportunity to lead the technical side of this highly collaborative, innovative project building a ground breaking product that provides deep and rich access to Yale's collections.

I am so excited and proud to announce the official launch today of #YaleLUX, https://t.co/HaDO62WwhI our knowledge graph / LOUD based cultural and natural heritage discovery platform.

Today, we're excited to launch LUX: Yale Collections Discovery, a digital platform that enables users to search across Yale's museums, archives, and library collections. Discover new connections within the collections anytime, anywhere: https://t.co/8f6I9Qq9UM #YaleLUX

#YaleLUX Just about to hit the big green button...

Yale is about to launch a new Linked Data based research and discovery tool across all of our libraries, archives and museums. Stay tuned ... but here's me talking about it for the cameras this morning! #YaleLUX

Susan Gibbons & @azaroth42 present the design & development of @yalelibrary's linked #data cross-collection discovery platform. They explore the systems that house more than the 40 million records in Yale's cultural heritage #collections. https://t.co/Go2oxMKCxL #CNI22f

aaaaand I'm gone. @azaroth42@w3c.social for my mastodon account.
