Greetings,
I'm working a master's project to create a small digital library in
Greenstone. We want to use the dc elements but extend the metadata to
include LRMI elements as well. We were hoping to explode our csv file of
metadata. Anyone know how to deal with having more than one metadata
schema?
Aha! Kickstarter, perhaps? If 100 people put in $5...
Perhaps not for 2014, but to be folded into planning for the next one.
I also like the idea of voluntary "memberships" that fund scholarships.

What's nuts is that something as simple as delimited data still causes
headaches at this point in our history.
Interesting discussion. May I suggest we level the playing field by moving
next year's conference to South Central Europe, say Pristina, Kosovo, or
Sarajevo, or Zagreb? We'd reach a whole new level of inclusiveness.

Not to stir things up, but I've been to a few conferences this year, and

Finances are a limiting factor on conference attendance for people of all

I'm not sure what exactly you're trying to do here, as it appears you're

Perhaps your state library offers these for conference and workshop
