PRESENTERS: Ian McDermott, Artstor "A Challenging Treasure: The D. James Dee Archive"
Tom Riedel, Regis University, Denver, CO "Dangerous Crosswalk: Shepherding the Regis University Santo Collection to the other side"
Kristen Schuster, University of Missouri Columbia Presented by Sarah Gillis, Worcester Art Museum, MA "Image Access and Use in the Digital Edition of Vetusta Monumenta"
Heather Seneff, University of Denver, CO "Using the Getty Vocabularies as Linked Open Data in a Cataloging Tool for an Academic Teaching Collection: Case Study at the University of Denver"
This session presents four case studies that address the myriad challenges posed by cataloging and metadata for image collections - from standards, workflow, and assessment to the application of new technologies and the tension between best practice and adapting to the platform-at-hand, this session will weigh in on metadata in theory, practice, and development. The presenters will reflect on completed, ongoing and barely-begun projects, discussing their plans for and experiences with open source tools, crowd-sourcing, consortia, Resource Description Framework (RDF), linked open data, digital asset management systems, and a wide range of metadata schema. The projects discussed vary in scale and content, each offering a unique and valuable takeaway.
