A Symposium for Publishers and Librarians\n \n

About the Symposium

The Symposium was held at OCLC Headquarters in Dublin, Ohio, USA, on March 18 and 19, 2009. Approximately 50 leaders from the library community and publishing industry around the world participated in the event. Participants presented and discussed the issues surrounding the metadata needs for libraries and the publisher supply chain.

Participating organizations included representatives from national, academic and public libraries, and from publishing organizations and associations, book groups, and standards organizations.

We encourage you to watch this space as we continue to publish outcomes on the symposium, including a report, papers, related resources and upcoming events.
