Description:
Publishers have a vested interest in making
sure their content is widely accessible. Libraries are
increasingly relying on publisher-supplied metadata to support
user access to electronic content. This webinar will present case
studies of how metadata created and managed by publishers is
currently being used in library systems (library catalog, link
resolver and discovery system) to support user access. Although
intended to provide background information to publishers and
library-service providers, this session may also be of interest to
librarians who manage some aspect of electronic resource content
or access.
