CLDs and the Stewardship Strategy Stewardship describes the entire range of demands and responsibilities associated with the management of cultural heritage collections, whether books, manuscripts, objects or digital material. –Doesnt stand alone – part of a wider, integrated framework –Development and use of collections - building on work done by RSLP/JISC –Using CLDs to manage subject collections in diverse institutions (eg. maritime collections in UK museums) –CLDs demonstrating delivery of Best Value – –a thoroughly sensible document

The NOF-digitise portal MySQL (probably) database of collections-descriptions entered by projects Indexed using a standard terminology and/or location Searchable by users Will direct users out to project websites from a central point Thinking about Curriculum Online - using NOF-digi CLD metadata to point to learning resources online

Free text (dc:description) Example collection level description Time (dcq:temporal) People (cld:agentName) Subject (dc:subject) Place (dcq:spatial) Title (dc:title) Location. (cld:address)

Sharing information across domains and localities Provide institutions with information about their collections –summary of holdings Aid in collection management –inform strategic planning –help assess priorities for item-level cataloguing Unexpected benefits! –from users –and for staff.
