Introduction : 

Introduction Charter of the Global Corporate Circle: Promote the use of the Dublin Core standard by enterprise organizations/corporations for both internal and external information. Coordinate with developers and information providers to ensure interoperability with enterprise-wide applications. Develop a body of work which provides best practices, case studies and examples of how Dublin Core is implemented and its' value to the organization. Examples can include what elements are used, how they are interpreted for the organization, values/controlled vocabularies developed and the return on investment (ROI) of metadata, specifically Dublin Core, for a company. Identify issues unique to the corporate community and what distinguishes them from other communities which use and implement metadata.

Goals for Last Year (2004-2005) : 

Goals for Last Year (2004-2005) Identify measures for success when implementing metadata and Dublin Core, including identifying pain points and return on investments (ROI) Create bibliography of case studies and literature related to value proposition of DC/metadata in organizations Decide whether a DC-specific presentation on the value of metadat would be useful, and how to create it if so Develop presentation based on results of Task 1 and Task 2 Plan a workshop around Metadata and Digital Asset Management for the 2005 conference
