Western Name Authority File: Creating a Collaborative Regional Vocabulary
This document summarizes the Western Name Authority File project which aims to create a collaborative regional vocabulary to resolve metadata problems when collections from different institutions are aggregated. The project involves investigating data models and tools for building and maintaining shared name authority data using linked data standards. An initial pilot involved deduplicating over 500,000 names from 8 participating institutions in the western US to 76,360 authorized forms. The project is now in Phase 2 which involves evaluating tools and frameworks for implementing the shared vocabulary and Phase 3 will involve a pilot implementation.

Role of libraries in research and scholarly communication
Libraries play an important role in supporting research through facilitating literature searches, providing information literacy and reference services, and guiding researchers in publishing and managing their research profiles. Libraries can help researchers efficiently search across disjointed information sources through federated search software or web-scale discovery tools which provide a single search interface. Libraries also help connect researchers to open access resources and guide them on where and how to publish their research findings.

Designing Metadata to Meet User Needs for Special Collections
Users need subject and keyword access, relevance ranking, comprehensive coverage, and awareness of collections. To meet these needs, metadata should support controlled vocabularies, semantic search, and arrangement of items. Metadata should also be shared outside library systems through APIs, linked data, and data dumps to increase awareness of collections.
Dig Deep But Don't Go Under
