More on Martha Yee and the Future of Cataloging

Michael Habib comments on his blog concerning Martha Yee's written testimony to the LC Working Group:

"Highly recommended. I think a lot of Web 2.0 types in the profession argue for much the same, only expanded to include contributions from our patrons."

Also, J. McRee (Mac) Elrod posted another Martha Yee paper on the AUTOCAT listserv: Principles for the Display of Cataloger-Created Metadata [PDF]. Mac Elrod mentions that Martha wrote this paper for IFLA.

  • The focus of this blog is the future of cataloging and metadata in libraries. The new cataloging code, RDA: Resource Description and Access, is a significant issue. The future of the MARC 21 format will also be explored. ILS/OPAC's future will be touch on. Also, I hope to use this blog to collocate some of the important papers, articles, websites, etc. that deal with the future of cataloging and metadata.
