Mercian Metadata Group
The Mercian Metadata Group is one of the Collaboration's special interest group, approved at the March 2019 Directors Board meeting. As the name suggests, the group members have a particular interest in around the creation and management of metadata. Like most of the other SIGs, membership is representational and largely self-selected by individuals within membership organisations. The joint-chairs are Richard Birley (BCU) and William Peaden (Coventry), supported by Group Secretary Sally Rimmer (Derby) and Masniza Sore (Northampton University) as eForum moderator. These posts were reconfirmed at the April 2022 meeting.
The group’s activities, direction and contributions are overseen by the group’s Chair, as guided by input from the Mercian Collaboration Steering Group and supported by the MC Development Officer. The CG's Steering Group sponsor is Judith Keene.
