ALCTS CCS Cataloging Norms Discussion Group invites cataloging, metadata,
and systems librarians working with MARC and other metadata standards to
submit proposals for papers to be presented at its meeting at the ALA
Annual Conference in Washington, D.C., Saturday, June 23, 2007, from 1:30

between working with different metadata standards with emphasis on
workflows.
Possible topics include, but are not limited to:

* Original catalogers and support staff in non-MARC metadata cataloging
* Roles of catalogers and systems staff in workflows
* How workflows for metadata creation differ from traditional MARC
cataloging
* Measuring productivity in MARC and non-MARC cataloging
* How traditional cataloging norms are being shaped or reshaped by other
metadata developments
Presentations should be approximately 15-20 minutes in length. Additional
time will be allowed for questions and answers.
