KBART is a NISO Recommended Practice that facilitates the transfer of holdings metadata from content providers to knowledge base suppliers and libraries. The first iteration of KBART, which focused on journal holdings, was published in 2010; a 2014 Phase II revision extended support to metadata for e-books, conference proceedings, consortial subscriptions, and some open access publications. Starting in early 2020, the KBART Standing Committee has been hard at work on research and actions around elements of its Phase III work with subgroups addressing areas such as clarifying the recommendations, revamping the mission statement, determining new fields, and creating a new file guide. In this Open Teleconference, KBART Standing Committee co-chairs Robert Heaton and Noah Levin will share updates on the progress of Phase III and next steps.
Speakers: Keondra Bailey, Standards Program Manager, NISO; Robert Heaton, FOLIO Implementation Consultant, EBSCO Information Services; and Noah Levin, Manager, Metadata and Digital Asset Management, Springer Publishing
