Abstract:
We all know that we should use standards, but how do you make the switch between traditional cataloging standards and new metadata standards for the digital environment? Standards can also be applied differently in different project and organizational contexts. As a result, standards alone don’t solve all problems of metadata use and reuse. This session will discuss some of the specific issues that if considered and analyzed before embarking on a digital project can improve the implementation and final result.
