- A-997 abstract "PolicyArchive collects public policy research from over 700 known research publishers and makes these documents accessible in a navigable digital library. The contributions of thousands of publications from these providers enables in-depth secondary source materials to be utilized by policymakers, legislators, foundations, scholars, journalists, and educators. The functionality of this digital repository is discussed, including the use of terminologies, subject navigability, and Special Collections. PolicyArchive presents unique content with structured metadata which is openly accessible; the application of these principles not only provides coordinated access to previously unavailable resources, but also allows the reader to place a given document in multiple contexts. Analysis of this information environment illuminates ongoing digital library initiatives regarding the creation of navigable, accessible learning resources.".

- A-1002 abstract "Objective: To describe the gaps in existing vocabularies and taxonomies that are used to retrieve literature on health issues for LGBT adolescents in order to build a working ontology of appropriate terms. Methods: A formal literature search on healthcare concerns of LGBT adolescents was done, using indices to the literature of the health sciences, the social and psycho-social sciences, and the information sciences. No terms from standard subject heading lists and controlled vocabularies such as MeSH®, the Thesaurus of Psychological Index Terms®, the ERIC Thesaurus®, and the MedlinePlus® Consumer Vocabulary, exist that adequately describe this literature, making precise retrieval difficult. A search using keywords and text words yielded 80 articles, and a careful reading of the articles prompted this effort to develop an ontology of “gay-sensitive” terms from the consumer informatics perspective. Results: A first-step model of LGBT terms, derived from the published research literature, is presented, which offers a more appropriate set of terms to use when searching the multi-disciplinary literature that reports current research on health concerns of LGBT adolescents. If an ontology can be developed, tested, and described for this topic, it will add to the sparse literature on consumer terminology for informatics applications.".

- A-1006 abstract "Individuals who wish to develop digital scholarly works and libraries that wish to provide access to their precious and fragile holdings have an interest in digitizing premodern manuscripts. These handmade objects are often beautiful and each one is unique. The features of zooming and light alteration available through digital photography and manipulation are assets to medieval scholars, because these methods can reveal more information for teaching and research. Digital collections of medieval manuscripts can be difficult to find or remain unpublished, in part because the description of these works is difficult. Involvement in the International Congress on Medieval Studies at Kalamazoo, Michigan has made it clear to librarians at WMU that both smaller institutions (which may hold only one or two items) and individual scholars wish to provide appropriate metadata for digitized manuscripts, but do not have the combination of technical and subject skills needed. Even with a good description of material from a bookseller or printed catalog, those unfamiliar with metadata schema and language may find it daunting, while libraries may lack a specialist in the terminology and skills of paleography and codicology. In addition, most existing large digital collections use TEI, which has a steep learning curve. The goal of this project is to develop a standardized and user-friendly Dublin Core application profile (Heery & Patel, 2000; Coyle & Baker, 2009) which uses elements from the European Networking Resources and Information Concerning Cultural Heritage (ENRICH) Specification (Burnard, 2008) and Dublin Core (DCMI, 2008) to create a metadata profile which works well with the long-standing conventions of premodern manuscript descriptive codicology and paleography (Ricci, 1935-1940; Ker, 1969). The ENRICH Specification includes elements standardizing traditional manuscript description with the goal of creating “seamless access to information about the vast collections of manuscripts and incunables distributed across major European libraries (Cummings & Burnard, 2009).” However, the size of the specification can be formidable, and requires knowledge of TEI and XML (a steep learning curve in itself), a searchable XML platform, and the expertise to set it up and sustain it. A Dublin Core application profile developed specifically for premodern manuscript description would allow for the creation of standardized, shareable metadata and Web-accessible digital images within easy-to-use digital collection management software such as CONTENTdm. Inclusion of defined ENRICH elements in the profile provides a “fill-in-the-blank” template informing non-specialists of descriptive metadata useful to medieval scholars. This, combined with suggested content standards and a simple glossary, should allow catalogers with limited subject expertise to provide some access to their materials in a way which conforms to the expectations of the target users, specialists in the interdisciplinary study of the premodern world. In addition, if the collection attracts scholars, the descriptive metadata can be easily updated and modified from their research. This poster will illustrate how digital images of manuscripts and traditional print catalog descriptions translate easily into the Premodern Manuscript Application Profile (PMAP), which is in development.".

- A-1008 abstract "Within the cultural heritage community, it is increasingly common to distinguish the tasks of identification and addressing the object by using a location-independent Persistent Identifier (PI) such as a URN, a DOI, or a Handle linked to a URL describing the object location in an institutional repository or a digital long-term preservation system run by a national library. This way, the problem that a digital object is inaccessible if the content provider moves it to a different location can be solved since the object can still be found using the PI. In order to resolve a PI to a URL with the object location, a resolution service is required, which usually is run by the national library acting as legal deposit for the digital object. This requires the user to know, which national library is responsible for the service, which is a problem for digital library portals collecting metadata from content providers in different cultural settings and from different nations. For the European cultural heritage portal Europeana, it was decided to implement a metaresolver – The Europeana Resolution Discovery Service (ERDS) – which collects all PI resolution requests and dispatches them to the proper national resolver service. The development of this metaresolver is part of the Europeana sister-project EuropeanaConnect and is scheduled for completion in July 2010.".

- A-1015 abstract "AGROVOC is one of the most important resources for covering the terminology of all subjects to interest the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) (including agriculture, forestry, fisheries, food and related domains). AGROVOC is a multilingual thesaurus developed by FAO and the Commission of the European Communities in the early 80s. Since then it has continuously been updated by FAO in collaboration with partner organizations in different countries, and is now available online in 19 languages . AGROVOC is currently being converted from a traditional term-based knowledge organization system (KOS) to a concept-based system (Soergel, 2004), the AGROVOC Concept Server (CS). The CS allows the representation of more semantics such as specific relationships between concepts as well as relationships between their multilingual lexicalizations. Its functions include being a resource to help structure and standardize agricultural terminology in multiple languages for use by any number of different users and systems around the world. An enabling tool, the AGROVOC Concept Server Workbench (ACSW), has been developed by FAO in collaboration with Kasetsart University in Thailand and other partners. It supports the maintenance of the CS data in a distributed environment (Sini, 2008). One of the goals of the project is to set up a network of international experts who can share the collaborative maintenance and extension of the AGROVOC CS, and thus enhance the creation of agricultural knowledge much more efficiently. The ACSW is part of the larger Agricultural Ontology Service (AOS) initiative and the first major step towards an "Ontology Service" (Fisseha, 2001), which aims to provide semantic-based services to users in the agricultural domain. To cover all agricultural related information, ACSW needs integrated vocabularies.".
