Metadata Committee meeting Monday Aug. 18, 2008, 9:00 a.m. Divinity Library Seminar Room Present: Marshall Breeding, Nancy Boggess-Korekac, Zora Breeding, Ronee Francis, Mary Charles Lasater, Steven Nordstrom, Bill Walker, Pete Wilson, Roberta Winjum, and Dale Poulter

  • Special guest: Dale Poulter attended this weeks meeting to share information from DiscoverLibrary Implementation Project team. The task of mapping databases to DiscoverLibrary is being handed off to the Metadata Committee.
    • The four collections to be added to DiscoverLibrary are:
      • DiscoverArchive (previously known as VU e-Archive)
      • Art and Christian Tradition
      • Global Music Archive
      • Readex Serial
    • The process:
      • Identify the collection to be added
      • Map elements from each collection. Each collection will different.
      • Define the fields
      • Determine what should display
      • Determine what should be in the index
  • The process will be complete once this normalization procedure is complete.
  • Results of discussion:
    • Even though some collections can have datasets defined separately, it is best to have a single pipe for simplicity.
    • A Mapping Team was suggested to include Mary Charles (Chair), Ronee Francis (DiscoverArchive), Chris Benda (Art & Christian Tradition), Steven Nordstrom (Global Music), Nancy Boggess-Korekach, and a possible consultant for the Readex records.
    • DiscoverLibrary is a discovery tool and even though a faceting feature is available the Mapping Team will not try to re-create the native interfaces but use the metadata in the best possible way.
    • Question: Is there a way to see if patrons are clicking out of DiscoverLibrary to special databases?
  • Next meeting will be September 22nd.
