[10]Proceedings of the 2003 Dublin Core Conference Seattle, WA:
Information School, University of Washington, October 2003.
(http://www.siderean.com/dc2003/search.jsp). - The Dublin Core
Conference has emerged as a rich source of technical papers
squarely focused on practical, down-to-earth library issues.
Surprisingly, although DC often shows up in many of these papers,
it doesn't show up in all by any means, and the breadth of the
papers belies the apparent narrowness of the conference title. Were
I to be asked to come up with a name for the conference based
solely on the papers, the word "metadata" must surely be a
component, as that appears to be the binding thread of this
conference. From all appearances, all of the papers given at the
conference are here in Adobe Acrobat format, and presented through
an interesting application called "Seamark" from [11]Siderean
Software, which also serves as the host for the papers (I can't
help wondering if anyone is backing these up somewhere, but maybe
it is my proximity to the Silicon Valley that makes me loathe to
trust preservation to a dot.com). Thus, a trip to this site can be
a two-fold benefit -- the papers themselves, and the system that
makes the papers searchable and browseable in new and interesting
ways. In other words, this is a "don't miss" site. - [12]RT
