Kim, Youngin; Norgard, Barbara; Chen, Aitao; Gey, Fredric – Proceedings of the ASIS Annual Meeting, 1999
Focuses on the retrieval of numeric data from information sources that present special challenges. Describes a new method to deal with the challenge of accessing this special type of data indexed by unfamiliar metadata vocabularies. Extends the entry vocabulary module (EVM) approach to deal with numeric database searching. (AEF)

Ng, Kwong Bor; Park, Soyeon; Burnett, Kathleen – Proceedings of the ASIS Annual Meeting, 1997
Examines the different concepts and orientations of the two major approaches to the role of metadata in the digital library (library science-oriented bibliographic control and computer science-oriented data management), and proposes an integrated concept of metadata to facilitate the merging of these two approaches. Discusses ongoing efforts to…

Bishop, Ann Peterson – Proceedings of the ASIS Annual Meeting, 1998
Explores the disaggregation (ability to access/manipulate individual components of a document) and reaggregation (compilation of article components into a new written work) of scientific and technical journal articles by students and faculty members. Results lead to a discussion of metadata, the role of context in constraining component use, and…
