PhD student Yingying Han worked on the 3DS3 team, investigating how 3D scanners are used in other libraries, museums, and archives creating descriptive and provenance metadata elements for the 3D repository and identifying potential copyright issues in the digitizing project. According to Rob Wallace, IT technical associate at Grainger Engineering Library, the iSchool students he supervised at the IDEA Lab contributed to the project team’s knowledge of 3D modeling, digital preservation best practices, and descriptive and technical metadata. In addition, the project will provide a 3D scanning service to faculty, students, and researchers to support digital scholarship. In addition to the three students working on the projects as part of their practicum experience, MS/LIS student Greta Heng worked part time on the 3D Digital Scholarship Scanning Service project, 3DS3.ģDS3 is a University of Illinois Library-funded project that aims to create an online collection of high-quality 3D models, leveraging existing digital infrastructure for storage, preservation, and distribution. Students who completed the practicum include PhD student Yingying Han, MS/IM student Xiaohan Yin, and MS/LIS student Nathan Moore. Located in Grainger Engineering Library, the IDEA Lab serves as a demonstration and prototyping site for exploring the interface between design learning, informatics, visualization, and data analytics. In the fall semester, three iSchool students worked on a 3D scanning service project and software development project as part of their practicum experience at the Innovation, Discovery, Design, & Data Lab ( IDEA Lab).
