[MCN-L] Metadata for You & Me: Online & at UC, Irvine

2008-01-03 Thread Richard Urban
**
Metadata for You & Me: A Workshop on Shareable Metadata
http://images.library.uiuc.edu/projects/mym
**

Metadata aggregations such as OAIster   and  
the IMLS Digital Collections and Content Project (http:// 
imlsdcc.grainger.uiuc.edu) have shown that metadata designed for  
diverse local environments may fall short in providing the  
information needed for useful discovery in the aggregated  
environment. Metadata for You & Me workshops assist metadata planners  
in analyzing and implementing the changes that need to be made to  
local metadata to prepare it for sharing with aggregations and other  
institutions. Topics to be covered include:

*  the current state of metadata aggregations
* "the six Cs and lots of Ss" framework for shareable metadata
* an analysis of shareable properties for various classes of metadata  
elements
* practical advice for implementing these principles.

The content of workshops is based on the Best Practices for Shareable  
Metadata, an initiative of the Digital Library Federation and the  
National Science Digital Library, that provides guidance for creating  
metadata that can be easily understood, processed and used outside of  
its local environment.

Registration is now open for the following workshops:

January 21-February 23, 2008
Online
Registration Fee: $150/person
Registration Deadline: January 14, 2008


February 7, 2008 or
February 8, 2008
Langston Library
University of California, Irvine
Registration fee:  $130/person (includes lunch)
Registration open until filled.


Pre-requisites:
Metadata for You & Me is intended for professionals engaged in  
sharing metadata resources with colleagues, regional and state-wide  
consortia, Open Archives Initiative harvesters and service providers,  
or other metadata sharing partners. It is not intended as a basic  
training program in metadata. Ideally participants should have:

* Familiarity with metadata standards such as Dublin Core, VRACore,  
MARC, MODS, etc.
* Familiarity with the concepts of metadata aggregation or  
federation, such as Z39.50, Open Archives Initiative, metasearch,  
etc. (technical knowledge of the protocols is not required.)
* Familiarity with your local metadata, such as standards and  
controlled vocabularies used, systems employed, etc.
* Online participants should expect to spend between 2-3 hours per  
week reading course materials and participating in weekly discussions  
and exercises.

Hello,
 
Can you recommend books or papers on the topics of producing quality
user-generated content, the process of reviewing/analyzing
user-generated content, and the amount of time that should be dedicated
to reviewing and editing user generated content.  I am currently looking
through the proceedings from Museums and the Web.  Are there any other
sources you can recommend?
 
Thank you!

Hi Allison,

I haven't read the book yet so I'm not sure how good it is, but I found
on Amazon.ca a book called "Zero Comments: Blogging and Critical
Internet Culture" by Geert Lovink (Routledge, 2007). It might be of
interest to you.

Cheers,
