I was looking at the [metadata framework](https://futurelib.pbwiki.com/Framework?ref=lorcandempsey.net) proposed by Karen Coyle, Diane Hillman, Jonathan Rochkind and Paul Weiss and was interested to see that the categories they use mapped pretty well onto the categories I have sometimes used when talking about library and related metadata and interoperability.  
  
Go forward to slide 29 or [click here](https://www.slideshare.net/lisld/metadata-practice-and-directiona-community-perspective/29?ref=lorcandempsey.net).  
So, we have:  
Model=information model  
Schema=element set  
Encoding=encoding  
Guidance=content values  
where the first column is from the Coyle et al framework, and the [second](https://www.slideshare.net/lisld/metadata-practice-and-directiona-community-perspective/29?ref=lorcandempsey.net) from my .ppt above.  
I had some offline conversation with Karen and in response to a query I noted that I had a version of the picture above in the presentation I loaded into [Slideshare](https://www.slideshare.net/lisld?ref=lorcandempsey.net) some months ago as an experiment. Prompted by the exchange I loaded a [couple more](https://www.slideshare.net/lisld?ref=lorcandempsey.net) presentations yesterday. I was interested to see how the service had moved on since I last looked at it. There are quite a few more presentations loaded, and they show you related presentations based on matches. The service has been up and down in the last twenty four hours or so: I don’t know if that if a current issue, or on ongoing issue. I still think it is a nice idea: it is useful to be able to make presentations available and URL addressable at the page level. That said, I thought I might see more folks use it in this way. Much as Flickr is used to acquire and share a URL for a picture.  
Here is one of the [presentations](https://www.slideshare.net/lisld/moving-to-the-network-leveldiscovery-and-disclosure?ref=lorcandempsey.net) I loaded, relevant to recent discussions about the catalog. I gave it at an ALCTS pre-meeting at ALA in Seattle recently. It draws on an Ariadne article, [The library catalogue in the new discovery environment, some thoughts](https://www.ariadne.ac.uk/issue48/dempsey/?ref=lorcandempsey.net), from last year.  
  
Incidentally, it is very kind of Karen and colleagues to [list](https://futurelib.pbwiki.com/otherFrameworks?ref=lorcandempsey.net) this as a *framework*, but I would hesitate to lean too heavily on what is something produced quickly for some presentations …..  
Ooops – I did insert the date on the version I presented 😉
