New Release: Digital Library Foundation on Metadata Tools
From the News Release:
The Digital Library Federation (DLF) is pleased to announce the publication of Future Directions in Metadata Remediation for Metadata Aggregators, a report that identifies and evaluates tools that can be used to normalize and enhance metadata. Commissioned by DLF Aquifer, the report was written by Greta de Groat, electronic media cataloger in the Metadata Development Unit of the Stanford University Libraries, and was supported by a grant from The Gladys Krieble Delmas Foundation.
“The Digital Library Federation is delighted to provide this tools inventory and evaluation to the cultural heritage community,” Katherine Kott, DLF Aquifer Director stated.
DLF Executive Director Peter Brantley added, “The value of our online culture is enhanced by our ability to link together perspectives on knowledge from across the world. The generosity of the Gladys Krieble Delmas Foundation enables DLF Aquifer to assist the development of critical tools enabling people to find and join together the information resources of libraries, museums, and archives.
