Microformats

Monday January 28, 2008
Noon - 1pm, 100 Hatcher

Jacob Glenn will present a brief introduction to microformats, a simple, lightweight means of publishing structured data in XHTML. He'll cover the basic types of microformats and demonstrate their use in a web browser. He'll then examine microformats as a component of various strategies to expose bibliographic data on the web, in the interest of provoking discussion about how the library can make our collections more visible to the web at large. Slides are available here (8.8 MB PDF).

We will also discuss possible topics for future brownbags.
