LITA / ALCTS Metadata Standards Committee – December 2018 Report


The group met 2-3 times this quarter.

Recent Activities

First Activity
Continued work on the Assessment for Fields in Metadata Standards project. The committee is continuing the information gathering around assessment of fields/elements in metadata standards. The literature review has revealed some adjacent research, but nothing specifically like the proposed “Metadata Assessment Framework”. Next steps include arranging the committee into research groups to begin modeling the framework.
Meets LITA’s strategic goals for Advocacy and Information Policy, Education and Professional Development

Second Activity
Less attention has been given to our secondary project, a follow-up to the 2017-2018 project to investigate inclusion and diversity in metadata standards. A draft report should be available soon, with intent to publish before the end of the year.
