The Talis day was useful and helpfully blogged by Owen Stephens http://ow.ly/5FlQe I'm pulling together a list (for the ukdiscovery initiative http://www.discovery.ac.uk/ ) of non UK open AND linked *META* data initiatives in the Libraries Museums and Archives (LAM) domain, Is there a list out there already? Suggestions for key projects welcomed. The related JISC open bibliographic data guide http://obd.jisc.ac.uk/examples has some examples--others?
