UKSG and NISO Release KBART Recommended Practices

Comments (1)

Jan 19


Announced at the ALA Midwinter Meeting in Boston by the United Kingdom Serials Group (UKSG) and the National Information Standards Organization (NISO), the KBART (Knowledge Bases and Related Tools) Working Group has published their initial set of practical recommendations for the timely exchange of accurate metadata between content providers and knowledge base developers. Such information is key to enhancing the user experience; inconsistent or incorrect metadata results in dead or misdirected links frustrating students, faculty and researchers.

The HTML version of the Working Group recommendations is accessible at: http://www.uksg.org/kbart/s1/summary while the PDF version is accessible here.

NFAIS member organizations ProQuest, OCLC, MarkLogic and EBSCO all had active representation in the committees and working groups involved in the development of this set of recommended practices.

So what better gift for the man in your life this Christmas than a brand new pair of designer true religion jeans. When it comes to the size of mens designer true religion jeans to buy, you will have to do a bit of snooping to see what size your loved one is.
