Metadata practice and direction: a community perspective Lorcan Dempsey VP Research and Chief Strategist CLIR/DLF. Managing Digital Assets: A Primer for Library and Information Technology Administrators   Charleston, SC February 4-6, 2005  
Overview Metadata Community Practice Directions
Metadata
Metadata? Schematized … … statements about … … resources
Metadata supports operations on resources …. … and relieves the user of having to have advance knowledge of the characteristics or existence of the resource. ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Metadata? … allows people and machines to work smarter …
In network space metadata will be associated with everything that moves ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
 
A ‘portal’ turned inside out … Common services Content services Application services Presentation services I need a few references
Common services Content services Application services Presentation services authentication
Common services Content services Application services Presentation services Directory: user profile
Common services Content services Application services Presentation services Query broker
Common services Content services Application services Presentation services Directory: service description
Common services Content services Application services Presentation services Content: results list
I’d like to get this book. Common services Content services Application services Presentation services Request broker
Common services Content services Application services Presentation services Directory: ILL policy
Common services Content services Application services Presentation services Directory: service description
Common services Content services Application services Presentation services Content: circ/ILL system
I need this article too. Common services Content services Application services Presentation services Request broker
Common services Content services Application services Presentation services openURL resolver
Common services Content services Application services Presentation services Directory: local knowledge base
Nearly there … Common services Content services Application services Presentation services Directory: service description
Common services Content services Application services Presentation services Content: article
Directory: ILL policy Common services Content services Application services Presentation services Authentication Directory: user profile Query broker Directory: service description Reference db Request broker Circ/ILL system OpenURL resolver Directory: local knowledge base Article db ,[object Object],[object Object]
Community
Community? * * * * Cultural heritage Media industry Web/ Internet Library Instructional technology E-gov Research communities Book industry EAD, MARC AMC, .. MARC, MODS, DC, RSLP, .. Onix, … XML, RDF, OWL, … CSDGM, DDI, NBII, IVOA, … EGMS, AGLS, GILS, … GEM, DC-ED, IEEE-LOM, SCORM, … MPEG, JPEG, …
Community politics ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Ontology recapitulates ideology
Practice
Simple descriptive metadata!! FRBR INDECS CIDOC … MARC21 DC VRA Core MODS Onix … Cataloging rules Controlled vocabs. … XML ISO2709 … RDF ‘ Element set’ Information model Encoding Values/content Application profile
Interoperability a factor at all these levels .. For example .. ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
This gives a context for discussing … ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
The interoperable core and communities of practice? MARC XML MARC 21 ONIX Dublin Core MODS Dublin Core GEM SCORM DC-Ed LOM Godby, Smith and Childress
Different classes of metadata increasingly a part of complex object models ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Directions
Makers and takers in a time of rapid development ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Interoperability is an economic and service issue ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Cost ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Fragmentation of community agreements and standards activities?
Statements ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],So what about the Semantic Web then?
Metadata ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Over to you … Thank you! Lorcan Dempsey [email_address]
The pattern is new … The knowledge imposes a pattern and falsifies For the pattern is new in every moment
