within the context of 'Distributed National Collection'.
The workshop will bring together views from a range of professionals

The workshop will explore how collection-level description can be used
in the collection management process both as a tool for information
managers
and an effective means of disclosure and discovery for users.
Audience:
The event is aimed at practitioners working in this area, including those
describing collections or developing and implementing services which
utilise
such descriptions, and those with an interest in the development and
deployment of standards in this area. There is a special emphasis on the
requirements of information managers
The Workshop will combine presentation sessions with discussions in smaller
groups.
There is no charge for this event.
