Data alone can’t drive decisions, metadata gives it meaning. When organizations prioritize metadata, they transform chaos into clarity and information into true intelligence. #MetadataMatters #DataGovernance #InformationManagement #DataStrategy #AI #KnowledgeManagement

#MetadataMatters - Ruth Elder (University of York) commented that to may be quite 'sobering' for libraries to see the extent of their poor quality records.
Legacy metadata issues can severely impact upon discoverability & interoperability, but libraries rarely have time/capacity to tackle it
Legacy metadata issues can severely impact upon discoverability & interoperability, but libraries rarely have time/capacity to tackle it
It also helps to identify parts of your data (metadata) that need attention - ie the records that need upgrading to ensure that they are not falsely flagged as unique when compared to NBK data

📚 A doozy of a reference request today! Invalid DOI. Looked up the article in the journal. It wasn't there. Page numbers assigned to another article in the next issue. Article cited by 24, so what happened and where is it?
