Hello everyone,


I am pleased to announce the Archipelago 1.4.0 Release today, woohoo!


You can find below a fuller overview of the changes baked into this release, broken down by the primary Archipelago Github repos. Sharing the highlights of what we (myself and Diego) think are some of the most notable items in this release reel:


You can find instructions for taking the latest Archipelago 1.4.0 release for a local test drive here:

https://docs.archipelago.nyc/1.4.0/archipelago-deployment-readme/


And you can find instructions for Archipelago Deployment Live here:

https://docs.archipelago.nyc/1.4.0/archipelago-deployment-live-readme/


Earlier today, running a fresh local deployment (again, repeat testing!) took me approximately 5 minutes to complete, from Step 1 for MacOSX, all the way to a completely processed + ingested AMI Demo Set.


To check out the latest IIIF API Content Search integrations, you will need to first wait for the Background Post-processing Queues and your Solr Index to finish updating after you run the AMI Demo Set (feel free to give the Cron a push to start ahead of the default 3 hour schedule). Then you can switch the Display Mode for any of the text-based demo objects (such as ‘The Natural History of Dogs’ Book) to the ‘Digital Object with Mirador Viewer’ mode, and test out a search within the left-hand sidebar of the Mirador viewer.


During a time when there is much fawning over machine mediated algorithmic outputs, I also want to take the time to highlight and share information about the often obscured hidden human labor and professional endeavors that empower Archipelago as an open source software system, and the wonderful content of research and cultural heritage resources that bring Archipelago deployments to life. 


Across only the first 15 Archipelagos listed on our ‘In the Wild’ page under the section covering instances that Diego and I are privileged to manage directly or support as the METRO Digital Services Team alongside our institutional partners:

  • Total Top-Level Digital Objects: 570,000+

  • Total Digital Objects including all subcomponents (pages, transcripts, mixed media/compound items): 2.65+ million

  • Total Unique Lines of Twig Code in Metadata Display Templates: ~4200

  • Total Custom Configuration Yaml File Differentiations (top file level, not reflective of line-level differences): ~3150

  • Total Custom Solr Fields, Facets, Blocks, and Theme Components: ~2400

  • Site Status Alerts (for Bot Resource Floods) Responded to between Jan-June 2024: 96

  • Total Cups of Coffee Per Day Required by our team alone: 4-8 (depending on the day’s to-do’s and those site alerts)


Examples of a few beautifully crafted resources found in Archipelago repositories:


These release notes would not be complete without a special shout out and thank you to Diego for all of his wonderful work on crafting so much of Archipelago’s codebase, and for his ongoing, dedicated support of the community throughout many years, reflecting a true embodiment of ‘esmero’. 


We would also like to thank the contributors of code and resources to Archipelago’s functionality and a few of the largest growing Archipelagos that have crossed our paths these past 6 months: Johannes Baiter and the Bavarian State Library team, Giancarlo Birello and Anna Perin, Mike Bennet, Megan Tyne and Roland Obermair, Ruairí O’Hare, Pat Dunlavey, Joanna DiPasquale and Corinne Chatnick, the entire SDSU repository team, Jennifer Palmentiero and Zack Spalding, Ilya Kreymer and the Webrecorder team, and the wider IIIF and Drupal Communities. 


To everyone that we have not the space to name individually: thank you also, the Archipelago community of users and thinkers at libraries, museums, universities and colleges, cultural heritage institutions, and repository services organizations. We appreciate your continued support and your open sharing of growing and well nurtured Archipelago repository collections, your use cases, and your thoughtful discussions and considerations.


If you have any questions or comments related to the latest release, please reach out on this community group or hop into the Archipelago Slack.


Thank you for your time and attention. Wish you all a very happy rest of your summer!

Allison

Allison, the release notes are wonderful! Thank you so much for managing our release process in such thorough way, for all your work, code,  testing, writing documentation and building configurations, for your personal kind words towards me (shy) and also for introducing community collections highlights, which is truly an amazing idea. There are so many new and improved things in this release and I personally love the fact that most of are/were inspired by community driven use cases. 

Congratulations!

Warm regards,

Diego
