Advanced XML: Further Adventures with XSLT
March 25-27, 2013 in Washington, DC
Washington, DC—The Association of Research Libraries (ARL) Statistics and Assessment Program and the Digital Library Federation, a program of the Council on Library and Information Resources, are pleased to offer an in-depth workshop focused on using XSLT (Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations) in digital library projects.
Taught by experienced XML/XSLT instructors and developers Matthew Gibson, Director of Digital Programs at the Virginia Foundation for the Humanities at the University of Virginia, and Christine Ruotolo, Digital Services Manager for Humanities and Social Sciences at the University of Virginia Library, this three-day workshop will explore XSLT with a specific focus on the role of XSLT in digital library projects. The workshop will be a mix of lecture and hands-on demonstration and experimentation.
Lectures, exercises, and projects will allow participants to gain experience using some of the more powerful components of XSLT 1.0 and 2.0, including:
* navigating the XML tree with XPath 2.0;
* working with recursion, modes, and named templates;
* using and creating functions;
* combining source documents and creating multiple result documents;
* sorting and grouping data; and
* using branching and control structures.
This workshop is designed for information professionals who have a familiarity with XML markup and who would like to learn or expand their current knowledge of XSLT. Some understanding of XSLT and experience with markup such as HTML is a plus.
