Thanks Lorcan.
For anyone unfamiliar with Library Trends, there is a collection of
searchable abstracts dating back to 1991 in the BUBL Journals service at:
http://bubl.ac.uk/journals/lis/kn/libtre/
The abstract of the Clifford Lynch article is at:
http://bubl.ac.uk/journals/lis/kn/libtre/v45n0397.htm#7building
The abstract of the following article,
"Resource Description in the Digital Age"
also sounds interesting.
For the full text you'll still have to use an actual library though,
not the electronic one, as far as I know.
