"Skosify is a tool that can be used to convert vocabularies expressed as RDFS and OWL into SKOS. It can also be used to improve, enrich and validate existing SKOS vocabularies. See GettingStarted in the wiki for documentation. An online version of the tool is available, which can be used to perform validation and correction. The online version does not yet support all the options available in Skosify. The current version of Skosify, version 1.0, was released on 14 January 2014. See the release announcement and release notes. You can download the file using the Downloads tab. You can also get a copy of the most recent code from the Subversion repository. Use the Issues tab to report problems or request enhancements. Skosify has originally been developed in the FinnONTO projects at the Semantic Computing Research Group (SeCo) at Aalto University and University of Helsinki, Finland. The code is open source and available under a permissive MIT-style license. Current development is ongoing at the National Library of Finland. For publications and contact information, see the home page of Skosify at the SeCo website."

"A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of attending a presentation on archiving commemorative African fabrics, through the course of which I learned about the University of Wisconsin's Digital Collections Center. As a historian-in-training and digital archive enthusiast, I became immediately intrigued by all the resources and projects described by Melissa McLimans, a digital librarian who works with the Center and helped digitally archive the fabric. After the talk, I decided to reach out to Melissa via e-mail to learn more about the UW Digital Collections Center. I also spoke with the Center's resident audio expert, Steven Dast. I do work for the Oral History Review, after all."

Embedded metadata is a key component of managing digital files, providing information on correct presentation, source of the file, rights, and other information which supports findability, access, authentication, preservation, and more. This paper discusses the concept and uses of embedded metadata in general, and then looks more specifically at its use in WAVE audio files, focusing on the efforts of the Federal Agencies Digitization Guidelines Initiative (FADGI) to develop recommendations on embedding metadata in audio files created by government agencies. This project resulted in the development of BWF MetaEdit, a tool which allows users to view, edit, and create embedded metadata in WAVE files.
