Terminologies meeting notes available

November 28th, 2007 by Merrilee

With all of the flurry of activity around here, I forgot to mention* that the summary report from our terminologies meeting in September are now available. (Günter blogged about the meeting.) We’ve also made our terminologies “Strawman” document available. We developed the Strawman to give examples of different ways a terminologies service could be developed, and includes some use cases that we hoped would be illustrative. It’s far from a perfect document, but it provided great fodder for discussion, and we include it with the summary report to give the whole picture.

Günter and I are greatly assisted in this effort by Diane Vizine-Goetz and Andy Houghton from OCLC Research. We are talking to the California Digital Library, Indiana University, and Oregon State University about how we can move forward with this project.

*And then, to make matters worse, I left this posting in “draft” for about a week and forgot that I hadn’t published it! Too many postings, they are all blurring together.
