Abstract

Discusses the use of hierarchy in description arguing that as a general rule, hierarchy is valuable in representations of reality when the properties of things lower in a hierarchy are directly inherited from those higher in the hierarchy. Explains why it is useful to extend this principle to archival description practices. Declares that the way to represent archives in descriptions that use the convenience of hierarchies is to seek inherited properties that are meaningfully related to archival work. This requires the representation of recordkeeping systems and organizational functions in archival documentation, not fonds or record groups

Abstract: Outlines the convergence of 2 approaches to archival description developed over 15 years and their application to the emerging issues in the creation, documentation, and management of electronic records. Relates the recently adopted General International Standard Archival Description to the University of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania specification of the metadata required for evidence

Abstract

Describes a workshop on vocabulary control given for the continuing education at Texas University at Austin in Nov 93. Describes the exhibits from which participants were expected to work, the writing of a prose description later expanded with fields that might be valuable to support different types of users and queries, the identification of terms used by participants for the same fields of data and their organization into that lists, classified lists and thesauri. Examines some of the serious weaknesses in the object description vocabularies with which museums are expected to work

Abstract

The Dublin Core metadata community and the INDECS/DOI community of authors, rights holders, and publishers are seeking common ground in the expression of metadata for information resources. Recent meetings at the 6th Dublin Core Workshop in Washington DC sketched out common models for semantics (informed by the requirements articulated in the IFLA Functional Requirements for the Bibliographic Record) and conventions for knowledge representation (based on the Resource Description Framework under development by the W3C). Further development of detailed requirements is planned by both communities in the coming months with the aim of fully representing the metadata needs of each. An open "Schema Harmonization" working group has been established to identify a common framework to support interoperability among these communities. The present document represents a starting point identifying historical developments and common requirements of these perspectives on metadata and charts a path for harmonizing their respective conceptual models. It is hoped that collaboration over the coming year will result in agreed semantic and syntactic conventions that will support a high degree of interoperability among these communities, ideally expressed in a single data model and using common, standard tools.

Abstract: Reviews the final report of the Task Force on Archiving of Digital Information which was charged with framing the key organizational, technological, legal, and economic issues associated with adopting a strategy of 'technological refreshing' for continued access to electronic digital records. Argues that the Task Force's contribution will help set an agenda for the political and organizational model for digital archives as understood by the library community. Discusses possible consequences both good and bad

Abstract

From their earliest encounters with the Web, museums have seen an opportunity to move beyond uni-directional communication into an environment that engages their users and reflects a multiplicity of perspectives. Shedding the "Unassailable Voice" (Walsh 1997) in favor of many "Points of View" (Sledge 1995) has challenged traditional museum approaches to the creation and delivery of content. Novel approaches are required in order to develop and sustain user engagement (Durbin 2004). New models of exhibit creation that democratize the curatorial functions of object selection and interpretation offer one way of opening up the museum (Coldicutt and Streten 2005). Another is to use the museum as a forum and focus for community story-telling (Howard, Pratty et al. 2005). Unfortunately, museum collections remain relatively inaccessible even when 'made available' through searchable on-line databases. Museum documentation seldom satisfies the on-line access needs of the broad public, both because it is written using professional terminology and because it may not address what is important to - or remembered by - the museum visitor. For example, an exhibition now on-line at The Metropolitan Museum of Art acknowledges "Coco" Chanel only in the brief, textual introduction (The Metropolitan Museum of Art 2005a). All of the images of her delightful fashion designs are attributed to "Gabrielle Chanel" (The Metropolitan Museum of Art 2005a). Interfaces that organize collections along axes of time or place - such of that of the Timeline of Art History (The Metropolitan Museum of Art 2005e) - often fail to match users' world-views, despite the care that went into their structuring or their significant pedagogical utility. Critically, as professionals working with art museums we realize that when cataloguers and curators describe works of art, they usually do not include the "subject" of the image itself. Simply put, we rarely answer the question "What is it a picture of?" Unfortunately, visitors will often remember a work based on its visual characteristics, only to find that Web-based searches for any of the things they recall do not produce results.
