CALL FOR PARTICIPATION: ALCTS Networked Resources and Metadata Interest Group (ALA Annual)
CALL FOR PARTICIPATION: ALCTS Networked Resources and Metadata Interest Group (ALA Annual)
Name: ALCTS Networked Resources and Metadata Interest Group
Event: Annual discussion and business meeting
Date: Sunday, June 29, 2008
Time: 8:00-10:00 (business meeting from approx. 9:15-10:00)
Place: Disneyland Hotel, North Exhibit Hall, Meeting Room B
The summer meeting of the Networked Resources and Metadata Interest Group at ALA Annual will consist of a discussion followed by a business meeting. The topic of the discussion is ?IT Support in Cataloging Departments.?
In March of this year, Erin Stalberg from NCSU posed some questions on the metadatalibrarians list about the existence of organizational models which combine both metadata competencies and MARC competencies. The questions elicited few answers and much interest. We would like to devote our meeting time to an open discussion of issues such as technical competencies, metadata competencies, workflows which accommodate both Marc and other metadata schemas, and ways in which these skillsets can be brought into our departments and have them support all of our workflows.
Please contact me if you are interested in helping lead this discussion. I would like to have 2 or 3 people who can draw out questions from the audience and then help facilitate a discussion around them. This is not a formal presentation, rather a forum for exploring the ways in which technological skills and cataloging skills may be combined in an organizational structure.
If you have related questions which you would like addressed during the discussion, please send them along by replying directly to me. I will summarize for the lists.
Thanks.
