Small Working Groups

Preassigned groups will attempt to formulate a list of core elements that will comprise a useful record for resource discovery and retrieval of what is commonly understood as a document. The goal is to NOT to articulate a description record for arbitrary network objects, but it is hoped that the experience and judgement of the stakeholders will result in a list of data elements that will be naturally extensible to other object types.

Panel discussion: Work Group Reports

Work group leaders will report on the deliberations of their groups in plenary session.
