This document discusses the future of metadata and explores opportunities with new technologies like chatbots, virtual reality, and automated metadata extraction. It notes that digital technologies have disrupted industries like photography and that digital experiences will be important in 2017. Various metadata fields and standards are listed. Challenges and opportunities for the BiblioShare platform are mentioned, including a lack of certain book records and the potential for more sample chapters and automated metadata.

3. "Prior to the late ‘90s, almost every picture in the U.S. was developed on
Kodak film. Its name was synonymous with photography.
But then digital broke big, and the number of digital cameras went from
4.5 million units in 2000 to 28.3 million units in 2007."

It’s
really
several
technologies,
each

in

coming

in

ways.
Ajax
incorporates:
standards-­‐based
presentaIon
using
XHTML
and
CSS;
dynamic
display
and
interacIon
using
the
Document
Object
Model;
data
interchange
and
manipulaIon
using
XML
and
XSLT;
asynchronous
data
retrieval
using
XMLHbpRequest;
and
JavaScript
binding
everything
together.
