Experiences in Deploying Public Metadata Analysis Tools
This event took place on Friday 15 May 2009 at 11:30
Dr. David Nichols University of Waikato, New Zealand
Current institutional repository software provides few tools to help metadata librarians understand and analyse their collections. In this talk I will discuss two metadata analysis tools: the MAT tool from the New Zealand Digital Library Project at Waikato and the KRIS tool from the National Library of New Zealand. MAT is a public on-demand analyser that uses heuristics and visualisations to aid in metadata assessment. KRIS is part of a national discovery service for research held in institutional repositories and is based around agreed metadata guidelines. Experiences in building and deploying these tools provide a checklist of requirements for future metadata tool provision.

New Media Systems is...
Our New Media Systems research theme aims to show how new media devices, standards, architectures and concepts can change the nature of learning.
Our work involves the development of short life-cycle working prototypes of innovative technologies or concepts that we believe will influence the future of open learning within a 3-5 year timescale. Each new media concept is built into a working prototype of how the innovation may change a target community. The working prototypes are all available (in some form) from this website.
Our prototypes themselves are not designed solely for traditional Open Learning, but include a remit to show how that innovation can and will change learning at all levels and in all forms; in education, at work and play.
