  1. DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF NOAA VIRTUAL LIBRARIES: THE INTERSECTION OF TRADITIONAL LIBRARY KNOWLEDGE AND CUTTING EDGE INFORMATION TECHNOLOGIES Dottie Anderson Mary Lou Cumberpatch NOAA Webshop July 2004

  2. LIBRARY STANDARDS TO DESCRIBE AND MANAGE CONTENT • MARC 21 • Dublin Core • FGDC • Z39.50 • Library of Congress Subject Headings

  3. VIRTUAL LIBRARIES • MARINE PROTECTED AREAS (MPAs) • CoRIS (Coral Reef Information System) • RESTORATION • NOAA Photo Library • Video Library (in process)

  4. MPA LIBRARY BACKGROUND • Executive Order #13158 on Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) • Specific Mandate for a National MPA Web site (www.mpa.gov) • MPA Inventory and List • Mission of the MPA Library

  5. MPA PARTICIPANTS • NOAA Central Library Staff • Coastal Services Center Library staff • NOS Special Projects Office/Communication and Educ. staff • National Marine Protected Areas Center and affiliated Institutes

  6. MPA LIBRARY’S COLLECTIONS • Notable Additions • Bibliography • Institutions and Organizations • Web sites • Conferences and Workshops

  7. MPA COLLECTION CRITERIA • Intended Users • Subject content • Timeliness • Authority • Accuracy • Maintenance

  8. Procite Database Exported to File Maker Pro Lasso – Web Database Publishing Many Abstracts and Keywords from ASFA and LCSH Full-Text Resources MPA LIBRARY SEARCH

  9. CoRISCoral Reef Data andInformation System

  10. One stop shopping Rich content, best of NOAA’s culture Final data, clear audit for operational data Candid and realistic NOAA site Complement, not replace, existing NOAA site Factual CoRIS General Principles

  11. GOALS of CoRIS • Develop single point of discovery for NOAA data and information of direct relevance to the management and preservation of the nation’s coral reefs • Make NOAA the “One place to go for coral reef data and information” • Provide “One Stop Shopping” for external and internal users • NOAA support For U.S. Coral Reef Task Force National Action Plan • Archive and preserve NOAA’s Coral Reef Data and Information.

  12. Notable Additions NOAA Coral Reef Web Sites Other Coral Reef Web Sites Publications Virtual Library Search CoRIS LIBRARY

  13. CoRIS METADATA • Important for data search and discovery mechanism • Important for longevity of project and effective, long-term use of the data being served • Library relies on existing MARC metadata standards

  14. CoRISDiscover NOAA’s Data • Another access to library metadata records • Links to data products and publications in the NOAA Library catalog • Search by title, author, keywords, taxonomic names and more • Powered by Blue Angel software

  15. CoRIS Z39.50 Compatibility • Parallel search strategy to simultaneously search NOAA Library documents in MARC/Dublin Core format as well as FGDC metadata within CoRIS • Avoid redundancy and allow users to discover potential data sources and applicable literature within one search

  16. RESTORATION PORTAL • Collaborative effort NOS Special Projects Office NMFS Restoration Center NOAA Central Library • Begun Spring 2003 • NOAA Centered • http://restoration.noaa.gov

  17. Restoration Objectives • Single point entry to NOAA restoration documents • Database is the NOAA Library Catalog • Links to on-line documents, publications, case studies web sites, photos, video

  18. FOUR MAJOR THEMES • Collaborating with communities • Restoring Injured Habitats • Advancing Restoration Science • Estuary Restoration Act

  19. FOUR COLLECTIONS IN EACH THEME AREA • Publications • Web Sites • Audiovisual Materials • Case Studies

  20. Publications Results Page

  21. Customized Library Catalog Search Interface

  22. SUPPORT NOAA • Provide access to subject-specific information to support NOAA Matrix programs • Cross cut between line offices • Support NOAA strategic plan for information

  23. NOAA Photo Library • 20 Collections including The Coral Kingdom and NOAA Restoration Center • 30,000+ photos • Search conducted with ht:/Dig • Collaboration between NOAA Central Library and HPCC

  24. Video Data Management System (VDMS) V • Part of overall Data Management System for the Office of Ocean Exploration • Pilot project started in 2003 • Over • Plans to include video in Virtual Library collections • Metadata field added to library catalog record

  25. MPA Library CoRIS Library Ocean Exploration Library/History Restoration Library Aquaculture Information Center Dry Tortugas Literature CLEO-Coral Literature & Education/Outreach Protected Areas Coral Reefs Undersea Research & Ocean Exploration Habitat Restoration Aquaculture Protected Areas Coral Reefs MATRIX PROGRAMS SUPPORT

  26. Develop controlled vocabularies to support library metadata Design capability for cross-searching multiple NOAA and non-NOAA databases Provide for continuously updated Virtual Libraries Provide metadata for online documents Provide metadata for all digital videos and images LIBRARY MILESTONES

  27. SUPPORT NOAA’S CROSS-CUTTING PRIORITIES OF ENVIRONMENTAL LITERACY, EDUCATION, AND OUTREACH • Efficient environmental information • Educational tool for environmental literacy • Ignite spark in future scientists • Make the delivery of information quick and easy • Organization and archiving of institutional resources

  28. LOOKING AHEAD • Update Knowledge Centers for Matrix Programs • Develop controlled vocabulary for matrix managed projects • Create dynamic repository for all NOAA electronic documents • Coordinate with Line Offices/Matrix programs to provide electronic access to meet employee’s needs
