Hi everyone, For those of you interested by descriptive and subject cataloguing, here is an announcement concerning the new IFLA Metadata Newsletter, available at: http://www.ifla.org/files/assets/classification-and-indexing/newsletters/metadata-newsletter-201506.pdf Enjoy :) > -----Message d'origine----- > De : Unni Knutsen [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Envoyé : 7 juillet > 2015 05:35 À : [log in to unmask] Objet : [CATSMAIL] First > issue of IFLA Metadata Newsletter available > > > Dear colleagues, > > During last year's WLIC in Lyon there was a workshop on how sections > may work together. The Bibliography Section suggested that we > cooperate on publishing a joint newsletter. It was therefore decided > that the newsletter editors of each section should study the > feasibility of a joint communication channel, be it newsletter, blog > or something else. > > > Rather than merely doing a feasibility study, the newsletter editors > decided to join forces and publish a common newsletter. The result of > our work is the first issue of the IFLA Metadata Newsletter. > > > This is to be seen as an experiment. At this year's WLIC, the > Bibliography, Cataloguing and Classification & Indexing sections will > have to discuss whether the IFLA Metadata Newsletter should replace > our present communication channels, which is SCATNews in our context. > > Please give the three editors (Harriet Aagaard, Neil Wilson and the > undersigned) feedback so we can have a fruitful discussion over this > topic at the WLIC in Cape Town! > > The link belows points to the Classification & Indexing Section's > webside. We will mount it on the Cataloguing Website at our earliest > convenience. > > http://www.ifla.org/files/assets/classification-and-indexing/newslette > rs/metadata-newsletter-201506.pdf > > Best wishes from > > Unni Knutsen ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mail submissions to [log in to unmask] For information about joining ARLIS/NA see: http://www.arlisna.org/membership/join-arlisna Send administrative matters (file requests, subscription requests, etc) to [log in to unmask] ARLIS-L Archives and subscription maintenance: http://lsv.arlisna.org Questions may be addressed to list owner (Judy Dyki) at: [log in to unmask] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
