  • Spend some time testing my post_bitstreams.py script to update thumbnails for items on CGSpace
    • Interestingly I found an item with a JFIF thumbnail and another with a WebP thumbnail…
  • Meeting with Valentina, Stefano, and Sara about MODS metadata in CGSpace
    • They have experience with improving the MODS interface in MELSpace’s OAI-PMH for use with AGRIS and were curious if we could do the same in CGSpace
    • From what I can see we need to upgrade the MODS schema from 3.1 to 3.7 and then just add a bunch of our fields to the crosswalk
