Fighting the good fight: Metadata in Research Data Management
Proper metadata is key in understanding, interpreting and publishing research data. In this presentation we will look at what we have discovered about metadata use as part of an ongoing
Research Data Management pilot project and some problem areas. We will also briefly discuss discipline-specific metadata standards.
Charlotte Christensen
Good enough?
What makes a record 'good' or 'not good enough'? No cataloguer can do everything, but how do you decide what is important? This presentation will give an overview of how to look at MARC
records and assess their value to your own library. It will help you decide what's worth 'fixing' for your use, and what can be left alone.

Lightning session:
Metadata Librarians, the artists formerly known as Cataloguers
Lincoln University has embraced shelf-ready titles, ebooks, and the shared knowledge of an ever-improving cataloguing community to allow us to more easily manage our traditional collections
and redistribute our traditional cataloguing time. With the Research Archive housing student and academic research, and the Living Heritage site preserving, sharing and connecting our community history, our focus has shifted from creating perfect bibliographic
records to raising the visibility of our assets in a global environment. The combination of cataloguing and digital skillsets is key to effective metadata creation in these new environments. This talk explores Lincoln University’s move into digital metadata,
where we’ve come from, how we got here, and what we’re planning next.
Adam Moriarty
Collections Online
This talk is an example-rich, practical introduction to Linked [Open] Data (LOD). Using Auckland Museum’s recent Collections Online project and knowledge gained during the recent Paul Reynolds Scholarship, I
will present an overview of how this technology can enable collaboration and sharing of data outside your institution. I will highlight the metadata mapping process, workflows and backend technology required for a successful project.
Skalk van der Merwe
Integrating Music Resources from one Library to another : Using Excel, MarcEdit, the National Union Catalogue and OCLC.
A presentation on how we used MS Excel and Marc Edit to create a Marc file using Massey University bibliographic and item data to batch load into Voyager / Alma.
Charlotte Christensen, Jean Schutte and Fenella Gordon
Roundtable discussion:
Remote working
Charlotte, who works remotely for the National Library of New Zealand, Jean Schutte (Wheelers Lead Cataloguer for Hamilton and normally working from home in Waiku) and Fenella Gordon (her employer at Wheelers)
will discuss their working lives and logistics of cataloguing remotely.
This will also be a chance for a general discussion on the topic, so questions and queries welcome.
