The Future of Cataloging: A PALINET Symposium
Keynote
Address, Karen Calhoun, OCLC Vice President Presentation Slides Response to Keynote, Panel Discussion Beth
Picknally Camden,
Goldstein Director of Information Processing, University of Keynote Response Audio Recording Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR) and Current Development and Implementation Plans for Resource Description and Access (RDA) John
Attig, Authority Control Librarian, The The Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records
(FRBR) provides a powerful tool for designing and evaluating the effectiveness
of present and future catalogs. The FRBR data model suggests ways of
organizing bibliographic resources in ways that support the needs of users to
find, identify, select, and obtain bibliographic resources. Resource
Description and Access (RDA) is a new content standard being developed as an
application of the FRBR model. Both of these suggest the need for a new
infrastructure of standards (for content and encoding of data) and systems (for
exchange of cataloging records). Presentation Slides On the Record, One View of the Future – Library of Congress Report on the Future of Bibliographic Control Nancy
Fallgren, Digital Access/Metadata Librarian, The The final report of the
Library of Congress Working Group on the Future of Bibliographic Control
presents one vision of the future of bibliographic control and how we should
move toward achieving it. This
presentation will offer an overview of the report, its intent, and its
significance to the library community. Presentation Slides Making Special Collections Not So Special? The Implications for Archives and Special Collections of the Report of the Library of Congress Working Group on the Future of Bibliographic Control Christine
Di Bella, Archivist
and Project Director, PACSCL Consortial Survey Initiative, The Historical Society
of Archives and special
collections often operate outside of mainstream library cataloging
practice. While the unique nature of our
materials demands some flexibility, such isolation contributes to the creation
of massive backlogs of unprocessed and uncataloged material. Paralleling debates within the special
collections community, the report’s call for streamlined and integrated
cataloging for special collections materials promises improved access to many
valuable resources. What will we gain, and what, if anything, will we lose? Presentation Slides High Quality Discovery in a Web 2.0 World: Architectures for Next Generation Catalogs John
Mark Ockerbloom, Digital library Architect and Planner, Issues of information and systems architecture
underly many of the current debates over the future of cataloging. This talk discusses some ways in which the
architecture of the catalog is being redesigned to combine the rich information
architecture of library metadata with the robust systems architecture of many
Web-based discovery systems. I will show
"subject map" discovery systems that better exploit the relationships
in complex ontologies like LCSH, and discuss a Digital Library Federation
initiative to promote standards supporting interoperability between discovery
systems and ILS data and services. I
will also touch on the role of networked architectures in improving the quality
and efficiency of library cataloging. Presentation Slides Summary & Closing Remarks - Dina Giambi, President-Elect, Association for Library Collections & Technical Services (ALCTS), a division of the American Library Association, and Assistant Director for Library Technical Services University of Delaware Library ALCTS supports the cataloging
specialization by offering a variety of cataloging focused resources on its web
site, providing continuing education opportunities at |
