===============================

DCMI's annual conference addresses models, technologies and applications of
metadata.

*2014 THEME: "Metadata Intersections: Bridging the Archipelago of Cultural
Memory"*

Metadata is fundamental in enabling ubiquitous access to cultural and
scientific resources through galleries, libraries, archives and museums
(GLAM). While fundamental, GLAM traditions in documentation and
organization lead to significant differences in both their languages of
description and domain practices. And yet, the push is on for "radically
open cultural heritage data" that bridges these differences as well as
those across the humanities and the natural sciences. DC-2014 will explore
the role of metadata in spanning the archipelago of siloed cultural memory
in an emerging context of linked access to data repositories as well as
repositories of cultural artifacts.
