2017-08-31 Metadata Management Meeting Notes

There will be a forum on GoKb, on September 13. Joseph will send out a sign up form.

Codex metadata

Update

Kathryn presented the Inventory Metadata Elements set that she created on the wiki. Kathryn is focusing on what the data is that we need for the inventory portion of our records. What fields and subfields will need to be displayed as we work with inventory records? What kinds of data will we need to see in different contexts, such as Acquisitions vs. Circulation? The intent of the Inventory Metadata Elements is to define terms so we are all thinking in the same way. As much as possible the Codex element names were paralleled.

2. Conversation about multi-entity items -- e.g., analyzed titles and boundwiths.  How does/can the Codex model to support them?  Some feedback from the SIG would be useful.

3. Discuss non-bibliographic and non-MARC resources to make sure that the fields we've selected based on bibliographic/MARC content are sufficient to address other needs. Perhaps use the SIG time to identify a small group of experts to meet with Kathryn for an hour or so at a later time to provide input/feedback.

4. Discuss/review resource types -- where they should be pulled from, how they relate to circulation, etc.
