Rémi Rampin, the the current developer of ReproZip, Fernando Chirigati, the former developer, and I created this great GitHub repository called ReproZip Examples, dedicated to showcasing examples and use cases from different domains using ReproZip. We have everything from digital humanities (a history paper used ReproZip!) to archiving websites and client-server architecture, to machine learning. It's awesome -- check it out and try to unpack stuff if you want!

I'm really advocating hard for libraries to start at least investigating using ReproZip for it's digital collections -- there is so much unused potential for this it's actually crazy, which brings us around to the title. Getting use cases is hard.

In May, Rémi and I will be at the Data and Software and Preservation for Open Science workshop, Container Strategies for Data Software Preservation that Promote Open Science. I'm serving as an external organizer, but the two of us will be doing some extensive work with ReproZip while there.

So, I kind of am in love with the FORCE conference I just went to. FORCE2016 is the annual conference from an organization called FORCE11 (ha, the year they started the org.). This year, 500 people came from around the world: researchers, librarians, software developers, large scale repositories, open science advocates, and everyone in between. It was not only a very diverse conference in terms of home country and job, but also in the way the conference and program was run.

Hi! I'm Vicky Steeves. I am a librarian specializing in digital preservation & science data. On this site you can find out more about me, my work, and probably see more pictures of my cat than you ever wanted to. But he's super cute so....you decide if that's a bad thing. Welcome!

I recently accepted a position at New York University Libraries as the Research Data Management and Reproducibility librarian as of August 2015! I will provide instructional and consultation services to the NYU Community in Research Data Management, as well as pilot curation practices while monitoring researcher needs across disciplines. Additionally, I will be directly involved in supporting the Moore-Sloan Data Science Environment Partnership at NYU, working on the reproducibilty of scientific research data. I recently completed the National Digital Stewardship Residency at the American Museum of Natural History. My project was to gain a broad overview of the extent and status of AMNH digital assets pertaining to Science. To do so I developed a structured interview guide designed to measure and describe scientific digital assets resulting in a metric to predict ongoing data curation needs.

                      Shira: Ah yes, the video. I used it as an opportunity to demonstrate my understanding of some of the key concepts that I would be required to engage with throughout my residency. Given how I work I knew that it would be easiest if I wrote a script beforehand. Although this might not be necessary for some people, it turned out to be a huge help for me since it forced me to pay careful attention to the video’s structure, which ultimately made for a tighter, more cogent piece.

                      Karl: I followed Julia’s and Shira’s general approaches to creating the video, but in terms of what I wanted it to actually achieve for me, I focused on making it the best possible representation of who I am and how I like to communicate--especially when challenged to speak on such a complicated topic in a short timeframe. I can’t stress heavily enough just how many directions you could take that in your own case, and therefore how beneficial it is to be yourself and make it your own.

                      Vicky: To be honest, I totally winged it. My boyfriend’s twin sister has a degree in photography with a concentration in film (big thank you to Zoë Catalano!), so after a double shift at the restaurant I was working at, I went to their house to film. It was nice that she had an HD camera and editing abilities, so the actual quality of the video was very good. As for the content, I didn’t practice or write a script, I just got in front of the camera and tried to focus on the reasons why I am interested in digital preservation, and then focused it onto the project at the AMNH--because I really, really, wanted that one. That being said, tailoring it so specifically probably isn’t a good idea...but for me in this one instance, it really worked. I agree with Peggy--think of it as a video cover letter.

                                The DASPOS organizers used the Open Science Framework to organize all the conference materials such as notes, presentations, code, videos, whatever people wanted to contribute. For our breakouts, we had a separate ReproZip OSF component to take notes and centralize materials and accompanying GitHub repro where people could deposit any examples or use-cases. And we actually got one! Bertini is a a package for solving polynomial systems, developed at Notre Dame in the math department. The ReproZip package was deposited into our ReproZip OSF con. The depositor has made a great README with instructions and also provided a .rpz package so others can reproduce his work!
