Abstract:

Joseph A. Busch, Founder and Principal Consultant at Taxonomy Strategies, covers two main topics in this Transportation Librarians Roundtable. The first is metadata and interoperability – why metadata is important and how you talk to managers about it. The second is data management challenges – how we bring together structured and less structured information. Busch also explains metadata schemes like Dublin Core and metadata vocabularies like the Transportation Research Thesaurus. Metadata is designed to create enough information for any user, tool, or program to find and use any piece of content.
