Missspelings,
extra spaces, random; punctuation/ and wEird capitalizaTion: Are any of
these issues with your metadata? Open Refine (formerly Google Refine)
is a powerful tool that can solve all of these problems with a single
click. Even more amazing, Open Refine allows you to transform your data
from one format to another, extend it with web services, and even
connect it to linked data sources like Freebase. This presentation will
show just how useful this tool can be for local database projects like
the Minneapolis Community & Technical College Zine Collection as
well as messy MARC records in your ILS. The world of metadata has been
rapidly changing and it's time to get your data out of the 90s, clean it
up and be ready to link to the wider world of information!
