The CUL Metadata Working Group has been formed as an open forum for all staff to discuss metadata issues facing the library. Thus our Charge is as follows:
- To exchange information about metadata and its application to all library functions; this exchange will include information about uses of metadata in CUL as well as information about broader metadata developments nationally and internationally.
- To provide an opportunity for feedback on the potential and the impact of intended developments or uses of metadata in CUL.
- To make recommendations on policy decisions relating to metadata that need to be made by CUL.
