The Association for Library Collections & Technical Services (ALCTS), a division of the American Library Association, endorsed the document "Core Competencies for Cataloging and Metadata Professional Librarians" in March 2017. Whether you are a supervisor, a full-time cataloger, or someone who catalogs only under duress, core competencies can help you draw a direct correlation between quality cataloging and superior service. In this interactive session, participants will learn what core competencies are, how to use them in strategic planning and advocacy, and how to write core competencies that are appropriate for their own workplaces.]]>

Linked data, RDA, and shelf ready processing are relatively recent developments in a long evolution of library technology, metadata standards, and technical services workflows. Although change has been a constant fixture of the cataloger's reality, change is nonetheless disruptive—sometimes, bridges burn. This session takes a historical view of cataloging and metadata creation from the time of Cutter to the dawn of semantic search. The evolution and interplay of technology, metadata standards, and workflows—the tools of our trade—will be considered. What were the roles of catalogers during times of transition? Which personal and professional strengths have proven invaluable over the last century? How does any of this help our community interpret developments in linked library data or user-centered resource discovery? The presenter will propose a framework for interpreting changes in library technology, metadata standards, and technical services workflows. By viewing such changes through the lens of cataloging competencies, our community might navigate into new territory and cooperate in the building of new bridges.]]>

Presented at the Indiana Library Federation Annual Conference, 17 November 2015. From card catalogs to networked "beehive" terminals to desktop cataloging clients, catalogers have proven their flexibility and resilience through decades of technological change. With technological change, came new tools, new cataloging standards, and new workflows. Although job and department titles may be changing, certain core competencies have remained constant for catalogers (or, as some prefer, metadata specialists!). This presentation will provide a historical overview of the strengths and skills that catalogers possess and offer some ideas about how those skills may be applied in the future.]]>

Data curation projects frequently deal with data that were not created for the purposes of long- term preservation and re-use. How can curation of such legacy data be improved by supplying necessary metadata? In this report, we address this and other questions by creating robust metadata for twenty legacy research datasets. We report on the metrics of creating domain- specific metadata and propose a four-prong framework of metadata creation for legacy research data. Our findings indicate that there is a steep learning curve in encoding metadata using the FGDC content standard for digital geospatial metadata. Our project demonstrates that when data curators are handed research data “as is,” they may be successful in incorporating such data into a data sharing environment. We found that data curators can be successful in creating descriptive metadata and enhancing discoverability via subject analysis. However, curators must be aware of the limitations in applying structural and administrative metadata for legacy data.]]>
