[jobs]

Lecturer/Senior Lecturer in partnership with FACT

Liverpool John Moores University -Foundation for Art and Creative Technology

  
£37,382 - £45,941

  
Vacancy Reference: 431

  
At FACT (Foundation for Art and Creative Technology) you will explore and
exploit the on-going and developing impact of digital technology on art,
design, culture and the creative industries. This may include the exploration
of such themes as digital archives, online curating and the meeting of digital
mobile media with the public realm. With opportunities to contribute to an
emerging lab and curatorial projects, you will work with the Artistic Director
of FACT to develop a public platform for the presentation of relevant research
and to ensure that the research informing FACT and generated through its
programme is world class and underpins the thinking and development of FACT.

  
The LJMU duties of this post will comprise research and teaching in relevant
subject areas at Liverpool School of Art and Design; these include
Architecture, Fashion, Fine Art, Graphic Design and Illustration, History of
Art and Spatial Design. Research in the school is managed under the Art and
Design Research Centre (ADRC) and exists at the forefront of staff and
students' creative practice. Art and Design research has focused on
contemporary issues and ideas in international art and design practice,
curatorial practice and related histories and theories through exhibitions and
publications, conferences, events and fellowships.

  
Following the successful appointment of Dr Antony Hudek to a post in
partnership with Tate Liverpool, this post has been designed to enhance and
consolidate research in Art and Design between Liverpool School of Art and
Design and another of Liverpool's most significant cultural organisations,
FACT. It supposes a unique opportunity for an exceptional individual to
develop innovative and productive teaching and research activity by exploiting
the synergies between academia and creative industries.

  
Based between LJMU and FACT, the proportion of time spent in either
organisation will vary depending on seasonal pressures but will roughly be
50/50. In addition to the duties undertaken at each institution you will
facilitate dialogue and collaboration between the other institutions holding
cognate posts (FACT, Liverpool Biennial and Tate Liverpool) and with the
cultural sector more broadly.

  
Closing date: 16 April 2013

  
LJMU is committed to achieving of opportunity.

[CODE4LIB] Version 2.1.0 of JHOVE2 format characerization tool is released

[Sheila M. Morrissey]

*** Cross posted ***




The JHOVE2 development community is pleased to announce the release of Version 
2.1.0 of the open-source JHOVE2 format characterization tool.

Version 2.1.0 of JHOVE2 includes 3 new format modules, 1 new identifier module, 
1 new displayer module, and several bug fixes and enhancements from the Issues 
page on the JHOVE2 wiki.

The new format modules included in this release are for the ARC, WARC, and GZIP 
formats.

The new Identifier module uses the UNIX "file" utility, giving JHOVE2 users the 
choice of employing either DROID or file for identification of file formats.

The new XSLDisplayer module (which extends XMLDisplayer) can do XSLT 
transformations on the XML output before displaying it.

This release also reflects a new milestone in the JHOVE2 development community. 
 The new format and identifier modules are the contribution of developers from 
institutions (Bibliothéque Nationale de France and NETARKIVET.DK) beyond the 
original project participants (California Digital Library, Portico, and 
Stanford University Libraries).

Please see the release notes at  https://bitbucket.org/jhove2/main/downloads 
for detailed information about the release and for information about 
configuring JHOVE2 to use the new identifier module.  For information about 
issues resolved in this release, known bugs, open issues, and enhancement 
requests, please refer to

[CODE4LIB] Code4Lib wiki - new account creation disabled

[Wick, Ryan]

For the time being, I've disabled new account creation on the Code4Lib wiki, 
since essentially all new accounts are for spam. I can still create accounts 
manually, so let me know if you need one. Others with 'Sysop' privileges can 
also create them by logging in with your user and filling out the Create 
Account form.

I will gladly open it back up around events or regional meetings, such as the 
Virtual Lightning Talks and Code4Lib North.

Just a reminder, the wiki and associated accounts are completely separate from 
the main Code4Lib site at code4lib.org.
