While it is possible to catalogue or index non-English, non-Latin script publications and achieve some degree of success in the retrieval of such information, librarians and researchers are often disappointed by inconsistencies in the accuracy of search results for this type of publication and frustrated by the limitations created by the biases embedded in the technology and schema. This paper is the result of a two-year dialog between a Farsi-speaking medical librarian in Iran and an English-speaking metadata librarian in Canada. They present the argument that a metadata schema which incorporates graphical images such as Emoji along with keyword indexing or a controlled vocabulary and new search engines which can make use of the new schema for Boolean searching is a robust potential solution for the difficulties they discussed. While this new information seeking environment that requires both the edition of a graphical facet to metadata schema and new search engines presents the potential to break down significant intercultural barriers, the authors recognize that this undertaking is more than a simple technological or procedural change but would require significant agreement between and work from librarians, standards bodies and researchers.","PeriodicalId":39057,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Library Metadata","volume":"106 1","pages":"179 - 184"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78098052","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

RDA provides a comprehensive set of guidelines and instructions on resource description and access covering all types of content and media. It is based on the Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR) in order to relate the user task of retrieval and access in an online library catalogue and biographic database from a user’s perspective. Bibliographic records in RDA are more relevant in an online environment by enabling catalogs to cluster related records to show different manifestations of the same work. Patrons could discover that the information sources they are seeking are available in different forms in the library. This paper investigated RDA as a new standard for cataloguing as well as the challenges related to RDA implementation in libraries in Sub-Saharan Africa, as the literature evidence that many libraries in Africa are still using the AACR. Qualitative research approach based on document content analysis was used. Findings revealed that RDA is gradually implemented in Sub-Saharan Africa however, there are challenges related to power supply, internet connectivity, ICT skills, training, funding and LIS systems. The study recommends alternative power supply, other training options, development of consortia, among others.","PeriodicalId":39057,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Library Metadata","volume":"9 1","pages":"111 - 126"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90635550","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through our own experiments building a linked data ontology for our collections, we wondered: how are our peers in the linked data community evaluating their ontologies? Are participants engaging in ontology evaluation? What methodologies and evaluation criteria are they using? Are they documenting and sharing their processes? In this paper, we present findings from a survey conducted in the fall of 2018, aimed at professionals from libraries, archives, and museums (LAM) who were part of the data modeling team on linked data projects. The purpose of this survey was to better understand the reality of ontology evaluation in the context of a linked data project. We found that our colleagues were engaging in data modeling as part of linked data projects in a variety of different tasks and roles. There was some ambiguity with respect to evaluation, possibly in part due to the iterative nature of the modeling process. Evaluation is engaged iteratively and informally through use cases, competency questions, and testing of the data in the application. On the whole, not being shared widely outside of a project. The identified barriers to evaluating their models included: lack of knowledge, resources, and documentation.","PeriodicalId":39057,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Library Metadata","volume":"136 1","pages":"65 - 89"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76570242","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The variety of expertise required to create high-quality metadata for digital humanities projects practically requires a collaborative approach. Putting the call for collaboration into practice requires tools that are accessible and functional for all collaborators. Research on tools for metadata creation has tended to focus either on tools for librarians to manage digital project metadata or on tools for independent author metadata creation (Greenberg, 2003; Crystal & Greenberg, 2005). The literature has also tended to focus solely on the use of spreadsheets for metadata creation. Lincoln (2018) has discussed best practices for Google Sheets in archival metadata entry, and Broman and Woo (2017) have discussed best practices for spreadsheet data entry in general. This article positions tool selection and configuration as site of collaboration for the creation of digital project metadata through its examination of a Google Forms-based workflow for the creation and organization of metadata.","PeriodicalId":39057,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Library Metadata","volume":"29 1","pages":"51 - 64"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87830740","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
