Abstract: Metadata is critical to finding content. However, the expansion of digital content, rapid changes in access and use, and transitions in the digital supply chain pose tremendous challenges to the effective organization, description, and management of this information. Seven speakers from different communities in the digital supply chain addressed various aspects of this important topic. Participants in this preconference session gained a valuable overview of and an insight into the many issues associated with creating and distributing metadata in the digital age.
