I greatly enjoy my time working with metadata. When I tell people I work with
metadata, they quickly ask me, “What exactly
is metadata?” In
order to make collections of materials more accessible to the public, the
Library works to digitize and publish them online. As a CLIR CCEPS Fellow, I help with the creation of descriptive metadata for these electronic
documents. It’s an enormous project with lots of people working on different
tasks. It gives me a great chance to get immersed in a piece of California
history and to help make this information more readily available to researchers
and other users.
