“Special Collections: practices And Values"

Tuesday, January 25, 2005
11:00 a.m. – 12:00 noon
Room 405, IS Building

Abstract: Many digital library collections are the virtual analogs of special collections in libraries, museums, historical societies and archives today. A field study of people responsible for collection maintenance across a variety of institutions was carried out. It aimed at improving our understanding of issues involved in collection description and access and at extending our insight into the link between institutional values and metadata practice.
