Canadian <Metadata> Forum

Metadata is an important tool in addressing the problem of finding information on the Web because it provides a standard way of describing the content of your web pages.   The purpose of the Forum is to bring together participants and experts from the Canadian metadata communities, both government and non-government, such as libraries, archives, museums, industry, educational institutions and academia, to discuss a wide spectrum of metadata applications.

The Canadian <Metadata> Forum will take place September 19 and 20, 2003 in Ottawa at Library and Archives Canada. The Forum's outstanding technical program will be augmented by social events that will provide access to the 350 experts and decision-makers from the Canadian Metadata field, within and outside government and will ensure the Forum is a great success!

A limited number of opportunities are being offered to leading edge companies involved in the metadata field to sponsor these social events.

Good metadata makes it possible for potential clients and partners to find your website!

Don't miss the opportunity to have your company benefit from this event!

Please contact Cindy Hick at 613-726-7111 or by e-mail at hick@bellnet.ca for information on how your company can take advantage of this great opportunity.
