Stretching the Rubber Band: Centralized vs. Cooperative Management of the Alma Community Zone
vendredi 3 mai 2019 à 14:30–15:15 EDT
Grand West
Session Abstract
The Alma Community Zone contains bibliographic and access information for hundreds of thousands of electronic resources as well as authority records representing several international thesauri used in support Alma's automated authority control processes. Two members of the Alma Community Zone Management Group will provide an overview of the Community Zone and will discuss current topics of interest including:
- Community Zone scope, collections and data sources
- Community Zone maintenance and enhancement (both by ExLibris and by customers)
- Issues of quality control and collaborative maintenance of the Community Zone
The speakers will also discuss the current work of the Community Zone Management Group, a group charged by the Alma Working Group to advise and collaborate with Ex Libris on Community Zone metadata and its enrichment, and to serve as a resource for the Alma community.
