ALCTS Cataloging Norms Discussion Group

January 20, 2007, 1:30-3:30 p.m.

Washington State Convention and Trade Center, Room 615

 

TOPIC: How Catalogers and System Developers Work Creatively with
Metadata

 

The meeting will begin with "Institutional Repository one click MARC
record generation," presented by Terry Reese (Digital Production Unit
Head, Oregon State University Libraries) who will share his timesaving
one click MARC record generation approach for harvesting metadata from
DSpace into MARC for inclusion in OCLC and OSU's integrated library
system.  

 

Next, Lai-Ying Hsiung (Interim Head of Technical Services, University of
California, Santa Cruz) will describe the differences between record and
object identifiers, and their increasing relevance as match points or
linking devices for searching, record loading, record merging, report
generation, global updates, FRBR implementation and data sources
cross-matching in her presentation "What's in a number? Its increasing
relevance in the online environment."

 

The final presentation will be Casey Bisson's (System Developer,
Information Technologist, Plymouth State University) "Metadata and
faceted searching: an implementation report based on WPopac" in which he
will 1) discuss the lessons learned from working with metadata in
WPopac, an open-source web OPAC that he created, and 2) address how
current cataloging practice has served the new means of representing
cataloging data and questions the new technology poses for the evolution
of metadata.  

 

A question and answer session will follow the presentations.
