    UKMARC AMC: Draft Rev 4.0: UK MARC format for archives and manuscripts control (UK MARC AMC)

    No full text
    This draft is the first attempt to establish a UK MARC specifically for Archives and Manuscripts Control since the British Library indicated that it would countenance such extensions to the national UK MARC format. In order to keep consistency with the general UK MARC format, standard UK MARC subject fields are not included in this document, since they should be taken from the latest version of the UK MARC manual. {A note of them should perhaps be included in UK MARC AMC.} {NB Text in braces is intended to be explanatory material for readers of this draft}. Certain other fields have not been included that might occasionally be used in the cataloguing of archival materials but would generally only be used for such materials in organizations which were combining archive databases with library databases. This MARC version is intended for use with descriptions of archive or anuscript material that follow, or fit, the traditional style of cataloguing: we assume that these will normally relate to paper or parchment originals. It is not intended for use with descriptions of other kinds of material. For these, fields may be drawn from the appropriate UK MARC document. MARC versions for use with archives in special formats should be developed, in order to complete the full range of facilities available to archivists and curators

    No full text
    In July of 2025, in The Chronicle of Higher Education, Marc Watkins published practical advice for all faculty on how to identify and respond to a growing problem: AI creep. Almost daily, the commercial and higher education softwares you use are introducing AI without your consent. In this session, Marc will provide thoughts on how to respond. In addition, Robert Cummings will provide updates on UM’s AI Policy Board discussions.https://egrove.olemiss.edu/innovation_recordings/1008/thumbnail.jp

    Beyond ChatGPT: New Tools to Augment Your Research

    No full text
    Date: Wednesday, November 8 Time: 11:00 am-12:00 pm Location: Zoom Facilitators: Derek Bruff, visiting associate director, CETL; Kellye Makamson, Lecturer of Writing and Rhetoric; and Marc Watkins, Academic Innovation Fellow As generative AI tools like ChatGPT receive widespread attention, there has been little focus on how the technology can aid research and education. Join us to learn about AI-powered research tools that can augment academic work. We will discuss new research applications of tools like Anthropic’s Claude 2, Google’s NotebookLM, and Perplexity. Attendees will learn how these systems can help your own research and how you can use them with students to design assignments that help them explore critical thinking. We will cover recent updates and real-world use cases to explore how generative AI can be used pragmatically and ethically in research contexts

    Populism, populists, european democracies and European Union. The Italian case

    No full text
    In this chapter, the author starts by a necessary clarification of some notions as populism and fascism because there is a lot of confusion in the public debate but also a lot of academic controversies. The debate has been immediately re-launched in September 2022, after the victory at the general elections of Giorgia Meloni’s head of Brothers of Italy, a party who has a neo-fascist legacy, and after her nomination as chief of the Italian government. Marc Lazar concludes this first part of the chapter by giving what he calls an operative definition of populism, populist and fascism. In a second part, the author analyses Meloni’s party Brothers of Italy and proposes a characterisation of this party which is evolving. In a third part of the chapter, Marc Lazar reflects on what does Meloni and her party on Italian democracy and on the European Union but also what the Italian democracy and the European Union do to Meloni and Brothers of Italy. For the author, the Italian democracy and the European Union demonstrate a high capacity of resilience to the populist challenge and a propension of acculturation of the populists’ leader and party. He concludes pointing out that is a working progress, the end of which is unknown
