A great day for EBSCO, @FOLIO_LSP and #OpenSource. @librarycongress

@janetweets @cshabsin It's about gifting books rather than lending. If you find something you love, keep and cherish it. If you can, gift other books so the next person may be similarly inspired. #LFL circulation is constantly changing, and every day gives us something new.

I'm rereading "In Patagonia" by Bruce Chatwin on my first trip in quite some time. I first enjoyed this book in the early 90's when I started traveling for Web work. My wife reminded me I'm also wearing the same travel sports jacket. I don't think she meant it as a compliment.

March 1-3 is the 25th anniversary of "OCLC/NCSA Metadata Workshop: The Essential Elements of Network Object Description" hosted by OCLC in Dublin, OH. There @dublincore was born & has over time become a key part of the widely adopted https://t.co/oBlI9A9Ttu metadata standard.

Prepping for #PIDapalooza2020 I stumbled on some old PURL swag ... hard to believe we launched this 25? years ago. Looking forward to comparing lessons learned along the way ;)

[eric miller @erimille]

@ktfre Thanks for pulling this collection together @ktfre ! Now any https://t.co/mnVmhgE17p library can benefit / build from this. Here is your list but seen through the eyes of my library - https://t.co/x16XOO1XYV

@genomespace If there was a "not like" button, i'd be clicking it now. Well done @genomespace project, you will be missed.

@danbri @karencoyle @GerardMeijssen Just a quick comment @dan@karencoyle is absolutely correct. And that issue is just one of the reasons why we've built the https://t.co/38AAKrruZe network.

[eric miller @erimille]

@AnnieTheObscure @danbri RDF originally had key schema components to it. But as we were maturing, XML schema started and we put RDF schema parts on hold to build on other key standards work. Model was stable so shipped. RDFS then followed to round out Web DM scaffolding. Plus, all the crazy mentioned ;)

[Dublin Core @DublinCore]

In (1994), at the 2nd Int'l WWW Conf., a hallway conversation (Y. Rubinsky @stuartweibel @erimille T. Noreault, J. Hardin) on the difficulty of finding Web reources lead to a 1995 meeting at @oclc where @dublincore was invented. #Web30 #ForTheWeb https://t.co/0IlOI5In0i

[eric miller @erimille]

@danbri And as far back as Extreme Markup 2000 -
https://t.co/mbYN8erJWp . I recall at the time C. M. Sperberg-McQueen suggest we (RDF / TopicMap) be locked in a room and not let out until a single specification. May be a #W3CGraphWorkshop approach still worth considering? ;)

[eric miller @erimille]

Time flies when you're having fun ;)

[Dublin Core @DublinCore]

Today was the first day, 24 years ago: Day 1 of the "OCLC/NCSA Metadata Workshop" in Dublin, Ohio. 50 invited experts ("The Geeks, the Freaks, and the People with Sensible Shoes") decided the Web could self index so they invented #dublincore (see: https://t.co/0IlOI5In0i)
