Overview: The general aim of this special issue of the Journal of Library Metadata is to assess and present practices and research on contextual metadata as a component of a metadata framework. Contextual metadata can be found in a variety of metadata systems and in all environments that maintain metadata.

Topics: Recommended topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
* Definitions of contextual metadata
* The influence of community on contextual metadata (e.g., disciplines, specific community-driven structures, task-oriented structures, and cross-community applications)
* Contextual metadata standards
* Contextual metadata as a component of other standards
* Dynamic and/or static contextual metadata
* Automatic contextual metadata generation from existing data
* Use and usability of contextual metadata for relevance ranking and selection
* Content analyses of contextual metadata to determine best practices
* Semantic practices in constructing contextual metadata
* Quality metrics for contextual metadata
* Centralization and decentralization of contextual metadata

Authors of accepted proposals will be notified shortly about the status of their proposals. Full manuscripts (3000-7000 words) are expected to be submitted by July 10, 2011.
