Mapping the Information Landscape:
A Showcase of Collection Description Projects and Services
The event is aimed at information managers and policy makers
****************************************************************************************************************************************************
This Showcase Event will focus on the challenge of bringing together distributed content and how collection-level description
can help to facilitate this process.
The presentations will include input from several major strategic initiatives including the NOF portal, JISC's IE Service Registry, the CC-Interop (COPAC/Clumps Continuing Technical Cooperation) project and the Natural History Museum's CLD project. The day will also feature a unique "Showcase" of demonstrator/pilot services in the adjoining meeting rooms, with contributions from a wide range of CLD services.
The event will conclude with an exploration of how the concept of collections can be applied to other environments and knowledge spaces.
The event is aimed at information managers who are developing and directing policy, and anyone with an interest in employing collection-level description as a component part of their information services.
