Metadata Matters

Andy Powell has published on Slideshare this talk about metadata - see his eFoundations post for notes. It's 130 slides long and aims

"to cover a broad sweep of history from library cataloguing, thru the Dublin Core, Web search engines, IEEE LOM, the Semantic Web, arXiv, institutional repositories and more."
Don't be fooled by the length though. This is a flip through and is a readily accessible overview on the importance of metadata. Slides 86-91 might be of interest here. ;)
