[metadataLibrarians] DLF Forum

[Robert Wolfe]

Hi,

My name is Robert Wolfe and I'm the head of the Metadata Services 
Unit at the MIT Libraries.  We provide consulting and production 
services for digital production projects at MIT on a complete cost 
recovery bases.  Our primary clients are collections outside the 
library.  Our first major project has been to provide an application 
or Learning Object Metadata for the OpenCourseWare project.

I remember Martin Kurth mentioning something about a Birds of a 
Feather session at the DLF Forum.  It doesn't appear as if this has 
happened in the past.  I also remember Elaine Westbrooks inquiry into 
a similar session at the recent ALA meeting.  I am very interested in 
attending such an event and wonder if there are other metadata 
librarians eager to meet each other and talk shop.  I know such a 
session would go a long towards justifying my attendance at the 
upcoming forum.
