About the Author :
Philip Hider is Head of the School of Information Studies and Professor of Library and Information Management at Charles Sturt University, Australia.

Review :
'I felt as if each topic had been covered by a fair and balanced approach, to build up a detailed overall snapshot of metadata practices as they stand today, with sufficient context of the past and indications of possible future directions for the sector to help me gain a better grasp of the state of play of the profession in which I work…I would recommend this book to anyone working in a role that incorporates information organisation and resource description (I think a good case could be made for requesting funds for a copy in many workplaces for the purposes of professional development) and having at least a quick glance through it, especially if you are new to the profession, training, or recently qualified.' 'Hider's writing is clear, fluent and at times humourous. This book provides an excellent survey of the subject for beginners and provides both a refresher and deep insights for tose already aquainted with the basics.' — Joshua Hutchinson, Cataloging & Metadata Librarian, UCI Libraries, University of California Irvine 'Hider has presented a balanced view of the issues and challenges inherent in creating and managing metadata. As such, the second edition of his book serves as a useful introduction to the field of information organization and management as it exists today This work is recommended for students new to the field and for academic libraries desiring to have the most up-to-date information.'— Jan Mayo, Head of General Collections Cataloguing, East Carolina University Greenville 'The book is skillfully concise...yet comprehensive...The work inspires and provides the means to delve deep into the subject, making it a reliable and excellent learning and teaching resource.'— M.P.Satija, Journal of Education for Library and Information Science
