    3D Data Repository Features, Best Practices, and Implications for Preservation Models: Findings from a National Forum
    (ACRL, 2020) Hardesty, Juliet L.; Johnson, Jennifer; Wittenberg, Jamie; Hall, Nathan; Cook, Matt; Lischer-Katz, Zack; Xie, Zhiwu; McDonald, Robert; University Library
    This study identifies challenges and directions for 3D/VR repository standards and practices. As 3D technologies become more affordable and accessible, academic libraries need to implement workflows, standards, and practices that support the full lifecycle of 3D data. This study invited experts across several disciplines to analyze current national repository and preservation efforts. Outlined models provide frameworks to identify features, examine workflows, and determine implications of 3D data on current preservation models. Participants identified challenges for supporting 3D data, including intellectual property and fair use; providing repository system management beyond academic libraries; seeking guidance outside of academia for workflows to model.

    3D Scanning for Small Budgets: How Local Libraries and Museums Will Play a Role in Creating a 3D Digital Library
    (2015-12-15) Johnson, Jennifer; Schaumberg, JD
    Indiana University–Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) University Library has been digitizing and providing access to community and cultural heritage collections since 2006. Varying formats include: audio, video, photographs, slides, negatives, and text (bound, loose). The library provides access to these collections using CONTENTdm. As 3D technologies become increasingly popular in libraries and museums, IUPUI University Library is exploring the workflows and processes as they relate to 3D artifacts. The library is collaborating with Online Resources Inc., a company that specializes in 3D technology to digitize artifacts from the Benjamin Harrison Presidential Site. Online Resources has seen the high prices and complexity of systems hinder entrance into 3D data collection. They have made great strides in cost reduction for small budgets, and clarifying the best scanning system for the job. This presentation will demonstrate Creaform’s Go!Scan 3D while discussing collection digitization for small museums. Presenters will share insight on: key terms and features, how to filter to the correct 3D scanner, and how to reduce the cost of 3D scanning. This session will include discussion of how this technology may be implemented at the local level.

    Advancing 3D Digitization for Libraries, Museums, and Archives
    (Lyrasis, 2018-08-28) Johnson, Jennifer; Miller, Derek; Palmer, Kristi L.
    Digitizing collections has become a standard practice for libraries, museums, and archives. These collections include flat objects, photographs, negatives, microfilm, audio and video materials. Utilizing established workflows and best practices, these collections are easily accessible through content management systems and shareable through standardized metadata and exchange protocols, exemplified by the success of the Digital Public Library of America (DPLA). While the digitization of 2D objects continues, affordable 3D technologies are advancing opportunities for the same institutions to consider including 3D objects in their digital collections. The IUPUI University Library Center for Digital Scholarship is working towards a like basis of standards for scanned 3D artifacts in and incorporating those standards into current digital initiatives.

    Artifacts and Artifaction: Two Years of Historical Preservation with Benj. Harrison Presidential Site
    (2022) Wood, Zebulun M.; Sunderlin, Rob; Johnson, Jennifer; Hyde, Charles
    In 2016, the Benjamin Harrison Presidential Site, based out of Indianapolis, contracted our class N420 Project Development to produce a virtual museum to become known as The 23rd Floor. Virtual reality systems allow interaction with 3D replicas of artifacts that are normally not able to be displayed due to quantity of historical artifacts and insufficient space to display them in. The University Library's Center for Digital Scholarship was instrumental to providing digital scans that provided the foundation to recreate authentic replications of over 50 assets inside the growing virtual museum.

    Creating Digital Cultural Heritage Collections in an Urban Academic Library Setting
    (Urban Library Journal, 2015) Johnson, Jennifer
    As libraries develop digital cultural heritage collections the relationship with the organizations that own the collection are vital to the success of the process. This is ground that libraries have typically not operated. Organizations external to libraries that own collections have many needs beyond the simple digitization process. IUPUI University Library is an urban academic library that has worked on developing relationships with external organizations for almost ten years. During this time there have been many hurdles and lessons learned. This paper highlights some of the trends in relationship building with community organizations and offers two unique case studies that demonstrate the challenges libraries are likely to face. Other academic, research, and public libraries can benefit from developing relationships similar to those described and enhance the creation of cultural heritage collections.

    From Cultural Heritage to Research Innovations: Digital Scholarship Services for a Changing University
    (Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research, 2013-04-05) Coates, Heather L.; Johnson, Jennifer; Odell, Jere D.
    Digital technologies are changing the character of research, scholarship and education. While some may see these changes as a threat to business as usual, others see opportunities to build stronger universities, healthier learning communities and more equitable access to knowledge and information. The Program of Digital Scholarship provides the tools and services to help the IUPUI community develop both innovative and proven projects supported by the University Library. The Program of Digital Scholarship provides the IUPUI community with a variety of services and tools for sharing and managing their digital scholarly assets including but not limited to: published articles, white papers, conference presentations, images, artifacts, reusable learning objects, theses and dissertations, historic texts, datasets, and multimedia files. By providing open access to digital resources, these services contribute to IUPUI’s success as an innovative, urban university. In this poster, we describe four use cases in which faculty or community groups have collaborated with the Program of Digital Scholarship to build and share 1) the cultural heritage of central Indiana, 2) published works of faculty and student scholarship, 3) journals published at IUPUI, and 4) data management plans for grant-funded research. In each case, the Program of Digital Scholarship improved the dissemination of education, research and culture while raising the standards for preservation, usability, and accessibility.

    Inclusion of 3D Artifacts into a Digital Library: Exploring Technologies and Best Practice Techniques
    (2016-11-08) Johnson, Jennifer; Proctor, Anna
    Advances in 3D technologies are providing libraries and museums the opportunity to capture 3D artifacts in digital formats. The Center for Digital Scholarship at IUPUI University Library is implementing workflows and determining best practices to incorporate 3D images into an already established digital library of community and cultural heritage collections.
