1. THE BEST THING ABOUT THE FUTURE IS THAT IT COMES ONLY ONE DAY AT A TIME : OUR ROLES IN DEVELOPING 21ST-CENTURY DATA INFRASTRUCTURES Erin Stalberg Director of Discovery and Access Mount Holyoke College Library, Information, and Technology Services estalber@mtholyoke.edu Connecticut Library Association Farmington, CT November 15, 2012

2. Agenda Changing approaches to metadata creation Common library metadata standards and our roles in their creation/implementation/application Where are we now? Where are we headed? What is our role?

3. Changing Approaches to Metadata Creation The Library Model – Trained catalogers, one-at-a-time metadata records The User Submission Model – Authors create metadata when submitting resources The Automated Model – Automated tools create metadata for resources Combination Models Mash-up Models *

4. The Library Model Records created “by hand,” one at a time Shared documentation and content standards (AACR2, etc.) Efficiencies achieved by sharing information on commonly held resources Not easily extended past the granularity assumptions in current practice *

5. The User Submission Model Based on author or user generated metadata Can be wildly inconsistent – Submitters generally untrained – May be expert in one area, less so in others Often requires editing support for usability Inexpensive, but not generally satisfactory as an only option *

6. The Automated Model Based largely on text analysis; does not usually extend well to non-text or low-text Requires development of appropriate evaluation and editing processes *

7. Combination Models The Submission Model + library staff cleanup The Submission Model + automated cleanup – We have many years of experience of this managing DSpace and other institutional repositories; harvesting via OAIster. The Automated Model + library staff cleanup The Automated Model + automated cleanup – We have many years of experience of this with publisher data; starting with publisher data and cleaning it up manually and/or with tools such as MarcEdit or perl scripts.

8. The Mashup Models Take the data as you get it and use it/trust it (or not) based on it’s provenance – Just like social media Linked data Create/manage statements, not records Metadata should be actionable, not just descriptive (transcriptive) In order for metadata to be actionable, we need (more and) reliable identifiers

20. Metadata Standards Content Standards Schemas (a.k.a. Formats or Element Sets) – Set of semantic properties, in this context used to describe resources Syntaxes – The structural wrapping around the semantics – Essential for moving information around *

21. Content Standards AACR2 has functioned as the content standard for traditional cataloging Most non-MARC metadata standards do not make specific references to content standards, though some have “guidelines” for content Resource Description and Access – http://www.rdatoolkit.org/ http://www.rdatoolkit.org/ Cataloging Cultural Objects (Visual Resources Association) – http://cco.vrafoundation.org/ http://cco.vrafoundation.org/ *

22. Common Library Format Standards MARC 21 (http://www.loc.gov/marc)http://www.loc.gov/marc MARCXML (http://www.loc.gov/standards/marcxml/)http://www.loc.gov/standards/marcxml/ Dublin Core (http://dublincore.org)http://dublincore.org – Simple and Qualified MODS (http://www.loc.gov/standards/mods)http://www.loc.gov/standards/mods TEI (http://www.tei-c.org/)http://www.tei-c.org/ VRA Core (http://www.vraweb.org/)http://www.vraweb.org/ ONIX for Books (http://www.editeur.org/onix.html)http://www.editeur.org/onix.html EAD (http://www.loc.gov/ead/)http://www.loc.gov/ead/ *

23. MARC21 A MARC record involves three elements: – the record structure – the content designation – the data content of the record Legacy MARC21 record structure is 50 years old, based on assumptions of efficient storage, etc. What you see online is display convention, not the legacy record structure. *

38. The One-to-One Principle “In general Dublin Core metadata describes one manifestation or version of a resource, rather than assuming that manifestations stand in for one another. For instance, a jpeg image of the Mona Lisa has much in common with the original painting, but it is not the same as the painting. As such the digital image should be described as itself, most likely with the creator of the digital image as Creator or Contributor, rather than the painter of the original Mona Lisa. The relationship between the metadata for the original and the reproduction is part of the metadata description, and assists the user in determining whether he or she needs to go to the Louvre for the original, or whether his/her need can be met by a reproduction.” --Dublin Core Principles *

39.

44. VRA Core “Core 4 is built around three record types, Work, Image, and Collection. A Work is a unique event or object of cultural production (a building, a vase, a painting, a performance). An Image is the visual representation of the object or event, in part or in whole (a digital image of an artwork, a photograph of a building). In Core 4, a Work and an Image each have their own record. These records are related with the Relation attribute. The third record type, Collection, allows for collection-level cataloging of groups of materials such as groups of works or groups of images.”

56. WHERE ARE WE NOW? … DEFINE NOW?

57. … OR WHAT RDA TAUGHT NCSU ABOUT NEEDING A POST-MARC STANDARD

58. NCSU Context RapidCat in Acquisitions Coming through M&C: – Materials that bounce out from RapidCat (complex copy, variant editions, full originals) – Materials that are not purchased (i.e. gifts, NCSU digital collections, librarian-selected websites) – Materials that are not bought title-by-title (i.e. e-journals, e-books, patron-driven)

59. Metadata & Cataloging @ NCSU About 5% of NCSU MARC cataloging is Original Much of that is new editions and/or electronic derived from print NCSU is not a participant in the PCC MLS holding librarians are doing (next to) no cataloging Support staff are doing all copy AND original cataloging and both MARC and non-MARC cataloging

60. Policy setting v. use of catalogers judgment Alternatives/optional omissions/optional deletions – To follow LC or not to follow LC? Relationship designators Rule of 3 Criteria for upgrading copy & Deriving records Local Policy Development @ NCSU

61. NCSU U.S. RDA Test Statistics Common set original: 25 Common set copy: – met NCSU criteria for upgrade: 4 – did not meet NCSU criteria for upgrade: 1 Extra set: 462 – MARC Original: 390 (included 201 ETDs) – MARC Copy: 62 – MODS: 10 NCSU was the 5 th highest record creator

62. Record creation times at the end of the test period: 15-40 minutes for original book cataloging 5-20 minutes for copy book cataloging These times match NCSU’s existing local data for AACR2 book record creation. 75% of NCSU catalogers showed increased rapidity in record creation over the course of the test. Average time per record decreased 40% by the end of the test. For books, ebooks and ejournals we noted a steady decrease in record creation time The majority of print serials were cataloged by 3 individuals and despite repeat cataloging, time to catalog did not decrease much over time. We have no idea why. NCSU Timing Analysis

63. NCSU Survey Results Do you think that the US community should implement RDA? – NCSU Institutional Questionnaire: Yes – NCSU Individual Record Creator Surveys: Yes: 6 Yes, with changes: 10 No: 0

64. “Because this was my first RDA bibliographic record I checked everything I could find in the RDA toolkit. I learned a lot in training but not comfortable yet. I did a lot of second guessing my cataloger's judgment.” – NCSU cataloger

65. “I would also like to add that it is disappointing to see that the rules of RDA are expressed/explained in the Toolkit no better than they are in AACR2.” – NCSU cataloger

66. “The relator codes are not as easy to apply as I thought they would be... before actually creating a record, I had thought they would be straightforward and easy to assign. Not so much.” – NCSU cataloger “I think our local training was confusing regarding relator codes for distinguishing between a name (RDA 9.15) and relationship designators (Appendix I).” – NCSU cataloger

67. “The resource was a distinctively titled, annual issue of a particular section of a newspaper. The Toolkit was not very helpful in this situation. I did a search on supplements but was more concerned with the MARC21 fields to use and the ISBD punctuation. I relied on my prior knowledge of CONSER standards for my approach to the cataloging of this resource. As for the RDA components of the cataloging, I tried to pay special attention to the transcription fields and the 3XX fields.” – NCSU cataloger

68. “Many of the rules for the handling of Conferences as serials were developed by CONSER and there should be some reference to what rules have been updated and which are still subject to CONSER description.” – NCSU cataloger

69. “I had difficulty determining what rules came into play when deciding on access points. I decided to include several names in the statement of responsibility for completeness sake, but I didn't feel that they merited access points. RDA training I received seemed to indicate that this was acceptable, and conferring with a co-worker yielded the same conclusion, but I was unable to find a clear reference in the toolkit stating what should and should not be considered for an access point. – NCSU cataloger

70. “A little Latin never hurt anyone.” – NCSU cataloger

71. “After we had spent some time in the testing phase, our cataloging department discussed some of the challenges of working the RDA Toolkit and RDA in general. In many ways it seemed like a FRBR-friendly system like RDA was appreciated, but it seemed that MARC did not easily accommodate FRBR concepts. Solutions were proposed, many of which seemed to involve adding a layer of documentation that would help crosswalk RDA to MARC. But these measures seem time-consuming and the results seem questionable given the differences in how a MARC record is designed to hold data and how RDA would have us think about data. The concepts in RDA seem sound, and for our non-MARC cataloging, I could see its application, especially if we are designing our data structure with RDA/FRBR in mind, but as long as we continue to use MARC as our primary method of recording our metadata, I would question the utility of RDA in most of our day-to-day cataloging unless better tools integrating MARC and RDA were available.” – NCSU cataloger

72. Issues that Arose The distinction between encoding standards & content standards is not well understood. Particular MARC issues for RDA – 505 Contents Notes – Accompanying material – Closed/open vocabularies – Lack of technology support system to make work/expression/manifestation distinctions efficient. to make encoding relationships efficient to re-use data

73. Issues that Arose Particular MARC issues for RDA – Difficulty in encoding relationships: 245 00 Goodfellas ǂh [videorecording] / ǂc Warner Bros. presents an Irwin Winkler production, a Martin Scorsese picture ; produced by Irwin Winkler ; screenplay by Nicholas Pileggi & Martin Scorsese ; directed by Martin Scorsese. – 035 (OCoLC)55944757 – 700 1 Pileggi, Nicholas. ǂt Wiseguy. – 500 Based on the book "Wiseguy" by Nicholas Pileggi. – And related people … Nicholas Pileggi was married to Nora Ephron – Lack of good identifiers, need to create actionable relationships between resources with identifier-based links – “MARC may hinder the separation of elements and ability to use URIs in a linked data environment.” http://www.loc.gov/bibliographic- future/rda/source/rdatesting-finalreport-20june2011.pdf (page 8)http://www.loc.gov/bibliographic- future/rda/source/rdatesting-finalreport-20june2011.pdf

Bibliographic Framework Transition “The Library of Congress has launched a review of the bibliographic framework to better accommodate future needs … to determine a transition path for the MARC 21 exchange format in order to reap the benefits of newer technology while preserving a robust data exchange that has supported resource sharing and cataloging cost savings in recent decades.” Carried out in consultation with the format's formal partners -- Library and Archives Canada, the British Library, the Deutsche Nationalbibliothek, other agencies, user institutions, and the MARC advisory committees. LC contracted with Zepheira in May 2012 to translate the MARC 21 format to a Linked Data (LD) model while retaining as much as possible the robust and beneficial aspects of the historical format. A model should be available “soon” for testers to experiment with. http://www.loc.gov/marc/transition/

77. Our potential new roles Standards development on the open web Figuring out how to get our data to operate as part of the larger data ecosystem (google, amazon, wikipedia, archival resources …) Determining best practices for opening up our data Determining authority and staking our claim to our appropriate authority Determining best practices to create and keep the linkages between datasets consistent and coherent Creating data where none exists (particularly unique and local collections) Creating/Managing identifiers, relationships, name authorities

78. Cataloger roles “Seeing systems as ecologies emphasizes the interaction of players over the stratification of layers … One intriguing proposition is that librarians, information architects, database designers, and other professionals who create taxonomies and controlled vocabularies could reposition themselves as guardians, not of the systems architectural stability, but of its ecological resilience … Such a role relies less on the metaphor of architecture and more on the metaphor of urban planning.” – Gene Smith quoting Grant Campbell and Karl Fast. Tagging: People- Powered Metadata for the Social Web (2008), p. 92.
