If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow, why oh why can't I?": Introduction and overview of issues Gordon Dunsire

My yellow brick road  Early 2007: the world is black and white  And I’m somewhat pessimistic about the future of cataloguing  And the emerging information Dark Age …  Mid 2007: the wind begins to blow  SLIC’n’Flickr; NLS’n’YouTube  Theme for my workshop for Croatian archives, libraries and museums is …  Web2.0 stuff

Thunder and (en)lightening  Me: I can do the Flickr and YouTube bit, plus a Google maps mash-up  Co-presenter at workshop (younger (much!), slimmer (a lot!): I can do a basic introduction to other Web2.0 stuff like del.ic.io.us, Facebook, etc.  And I get blown away …

Not in Kansas …  So at the next CDLR staff meeting  I enthusiastically suggest that we should all be getting engaged with this stuff  And the Director agrees!  And then the rest of the team (looking a bit bored) point out that they’ve all been on Facebook for months …  And then I realize …

Collective metadata  Today’s presentations will focus on metadata for information retrieval  And most of it will be familiar to library cataloguers, even if the labels are different  That metadata, like those who create it, will be associated with specific organisations or individuals  But what about metadata and Web2.0 at a higher level of granularity, and, in turn, cataloguers acting collectively?

A collective mash-up  Location metadata from collection-level descriptions in the Scottish Collections Network (SCONE)  Mashed with Google Maps  Using the Application Program Interface  Public, free

Google map of all Scotland’s archives, libraries and museums

Locations of Robert Burns collections in Scotland

But what about The users?

Some typical end-users

And collective cataloguers?  Web2.0 now an essential tool for developing cataloguing standards to meet the challenges of an international, digital environment  Wikis, blogs, Skype, etc.  And those standards becoming more Web2.0 compatible  Open declaration for common utility  FRBR, LCSH, LCNAF, MARC21, RDA …

Web3.0  If we can tell computers that:  Library.title = Archive.title = Museum.caption = Bibliotheque.titre = MARC.245 =  “Jane Smith” (writer) <> “Jane Smith” (musician)  “Economics” = “330” > “ 交換率 ”  Then Web3.0 = Cataloguable Web = Semantic Web
