Metadata Discussion Group
The Metadata Discussion Group meets monthly to discuss an article relating to a current metadata topic. The group has no formal "membership" -- discussions are open to anyone from the Libraries, SLIS, or elsewhere on campus who is interested in the topic under discussion. A citation for the article to be discussed will be distributed two weeks before each Metadata Discussion Group meeting. Comments, questions, or ideas for discussion topics or articles can be sent to Jenn Riley, Metadata Librarian.
