<h2 class="blog-post-title">FORCE2016</h2>
<p class="blog-post-meta">April 20, 2016 by <a href="../../resume.html">Vicky Steeves</a></p>
<p>W.O.W.</p>
<p>So, I kind of am in love with the <a href="https://www.force11.org/meetings/force2016" target="_blank">FORCE conference</a> 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.</p>
<p>First, one of the coolest things I have ever seen: in addition to the MULTITUDE of tweets around the event (seriously everyone was so active, it was amazing), they hired a company to take visual notes!! While eveverything was going on!! Everyone, the gist of their talks, panels, lightning talks, EVERYTHING! Such a great idea and it produced a great visual overview of the con!</p>

<h2 class="blog-post-title">Getting Use Cases is Hard</h2>
<p class="blog-post-meta">March 20, 2016 by <a href="../../resume.html">Vicky Steeves</a></p>
<p>One of my big tasks since coming into NYU last August was to work on the <a href="https://github.com/ViDA-NYU/reprozip" target="_blank">ReproZip</a> project. My role is largely outreach and education: I was tasked with teaching ReproZip and general reproducibility principles, gathering use cases in a wider variety of disciplines (when I arrived, the use cases were largely in computer science), and supporting users in general.</p>
<p>ReproZip kind of blew my mind when I arrived; it's an open source software tool that simplifies the process of creating reproducible experiments. Basically it tracks operating system calls and creates a package that contains all the binaries, files, and dependencies required to reproduce the experiment. A reviewer can then extract the experiment on their own machine using ANY operating system (even if it's different from the original one!!) to reproduce the results. As a librarian, I was like "OH MY GOD. THE DIGITAL PRESERVATION GAME JUST GOT UPPED." Anyway, here's basically how ReproZip works -- in 2 steps:</p>

<h2 class="blog-post-title">#LYD16 Recap</h2>
<p class="blog-post-meta">February 16, 2016 by <a href="../../resume.html">Vicky Steeves</a></p>
<p>This past week, February 8-12th, was <a href="https://loveyourdata.wordpress.com/ " target="_blank">Love Your Data Week</a>!! Is there a more perfect holiday for data librarians, especially right before Valentine's Day??</p>
<p><a href="https://twitter.com/search?q=%23LYD16&src=tyah" target="_blank">#LYD16</a> was a social media event coordinated officially by 27 academic and research institutions, of which both <a href="https://twitter.com/nyudataservices" target="_blank">NYU Data Services</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/NYU_HSL" target="_blank">NYU Health Sciences Library</a> were a part. The idea behind this social media blitz was to raise awareness of research data management and the support/resources for RDM at each individual institution.</p>
