- Abstract
- Metadata is a resource which can assist the information retrieval of digital documents on the Internet. In designing a metadata system, it is necessary to consider the characteristics of digital documents, such as the variety of file formats, frequent format transformation and the difficulty of distinguishing between the different versions. Provides a brief analysis of some existing metadata formats, and introduces several pronciples for the future development of cataloguing on the Internet. Briefly describes the Metadata Experimental System (MES) currently under development, and located at the author's homepage

- Abstract
- Librarians create metadata including cataloging to manage and provide access to collections. Two recent technological developments, the explosion in electronic publishing and the conversion of metadata previously unavailable online into machine-readable form, are providing challenges to cataloging. Disparate types of resources, such as images and museum objects, archives, and library collections in print and electronic form, must be brought together in a coherent information environment. While catalogers exclusively cannot do these tasks, they and their skills are essential to bring order out of the chaos of the many different access systems

- Abstract
- Comments on the value of abstracts or summary notes to information available online via the Internet and WWW and concludes that automated abstracting techniques would be highly useful if routinely applied to cataloguing or metadata for Internet documents and documents in other databases. Information seekers need external summary information to assess content and value of retrieved documents. Examines traditional models for writers, in library audiovisual cataloguing, periodical databases and archival work, along with innovative new model databases featuring robust cataloguing summaries. Notes recent developments in automated techniques, computational research, and machine summarization of digital images. Recommendations are made for future designers of cataloguing and metadata standards

- Abstract
- A 1 day seminar was held in Aug 1997, in Synney, Australia, sponsored by the Information science Section of the australia Library and Information Association, on metadata. It focused on building a conceptual framework for metadata. The National Library is developing PANDORA (Preserving and Accessing Networked documentary Resources of Australia) an electronic archive designed to provide long term access to significant Australian online publications. An architecture for access to government information has been developed. The Distributed System Technology Centre's Resource Discivery Project Unit has developed an information presentation tool called HyperIndex and a meta-data searcher called HotOIL

- Abstract
- The relationship between library catalogues and electronic resources differs from that between catalogues and physical materials, particularly with regard to cataloguing rules, which were originally designed to help users of card catalogues to find physical works on library shelves. However, these rules apply awkwardly to electronic resources because functionally different electronic works raise special cataloguinf issues. Discusses the problems of describing remote electronic resources in online catalogues with particular reference to the InterCat project: a nationwide experiment to create a database of Internet resources in MARC format, containing description, location and access information (including PURLs = Persitent URLs)). Concludes that descriptive information helps the user identify the works needed, but that it is practical to provide only minimal desriptive information for remote electronic resources in the catalogue record. To a limited extent, the access lost from reduced description can be replaced with new cataloguing techniques designed to stabilize the catalogue record

- Abstract
- A 5th metadata workshop was held in Helsinki in Oct 1997, cosponsored by the National Library of Finland and OCLC, and 75 experts continued work begun in 1995 to try and reach consensus on conventions for describing resources on the Internet. Representatives of the W3C Metadata Project presented the 1st draft of a new specification for extended Web metadata: the Resource Description Framework (RDF), and demonstrated how this meets the infrastructure and encoding arrangements identified at the series of international Dublin Core workshops. W3C is an industry consortium run jointly by institutions in the USA, France and Japan, and currently has 210 members

- Abstract
- Examines international efforts to promote metadata as a common, interactive resource description tool for the Internet. These efforts centre on the Dublin Core Element Set, but include qualifiers such as those promoted by the Canberra Qualifiers. The LoC Network Development and MARC Standards Office maintains the Dublin Core / MARC / GILS (Government Information Location Standards) crosswalk which maps the common and correlative elements of each system. Describes current international initiatives and issues. Describes the Nordic metadata project which is aiming to create the basic elements of a metadata production and utilization system based on the Dublin Core Metadata Element Set. Describes the WWW consortium efforts in this area

- Abstract
- At present cataloguing of Internet resources are on 2 levels. At level 1, the description of resources is contained in local library catalogues, along with bibliographic surrogates for all other materials that the library access, based on AACR2/MARC systems. At level 2, Internet resources are organized independently of any library agency. These include separate catalogues of selected resources, subject browsing lists and robot-generated search tools, and focus exclusively on Internet resources. A 3rd level needs to be developed - a metacatalogue - whereby a user can identify specific library catalogues to include in a search query of other Internet databases

- The PICS, an initiative of W3C, is a technology that supports the association of descriptive labels with Web resources. By providing a single common transport syntax for metadata, PICS will support the growth of metadata systems (including library cataloguing) that are interoperable and widely supported in Web information systems. Within the PICS framework, a great diversity of resource description models can be implemented, from simple rating schemes to complex data content standards

- Abstract
- Metadata, or 'data about data', have been created and used for centuries in the print environment, though the term has its origins in the world of electronic information management. Presents the close relationship between traditional library cataloguing and the documentation of electronic data files (known as 'metadata'), showing that cataloguing is changing under the influence of information technology, but also that metadata provision is essentially an extension of traditional cataloguing processes

- Abstract
- A crucial question for librarians is whether to catalogue Internet information sources, and electronic sources in general, which may contain metainformation of the texts of articles. Librarians can help researchers with data identification and access in 4 ways: making OPAC available on the Internet; providing a complete selection of Gopher, Ftp, WWW, etc. site lists; maintaining a Web site, coordinateted by the library, that functions as an Internet access point; and organising access to existing search engines that do automatic indexing. Briefly reviews several metadata formats, including USMARC field 856, IAFA templates, SOIP (Harvest), TEI Headers, Capcas Head and URC

- Abstract
- Discusses a range of professional librarians' opinions on the urgent need either to adopt or replace the current cataloguing rules, a theme closely linked to the identity crisis facing libraries and librarians in the online electronic era. Topics examined include: Gorman and Oddy's views on restructuring AACR principles; the 13 metadata elements contained in the Dublin Core document (1995); catalogue search by known item; keyword search versus subject search; and the US Library of Congress's Program for cooperation cataloging

- Abstract
- Addresses the question of why a technical services department would hire a metadata specialist and whether a metadata specialist is really a cataloguer in disguise. Evidence suggests that cataoguing departments are recruiting and training staff for positions requiring broader computer experience and an awareness of larger metadata issues. Also explores whether students are attracted to these positions and whether library schools are preparing technical services staff for these challenges

- Abstract
- Describes the structure of metadata formats with particular reference to the taxonomy of data formats set out by the BIBLINK report of the UK Office for Library and Information Networking and based on their underlying complexity. Referes to 3 main types of metadata: Dublin Core; MARC and Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC). Provides practical examples of the actual codings used, illustrated with reference to the Dublin Core, Marc and FGDC elements in selected Web sites. Ends with a glossary and a list of Web sites containing background information on metadata, such as the IAMSLIC metadata homepage
