here to register. Registration will be closed on Sunday, Dec. 15, 2013. A confirmation with instruction for collecting registration fee will be sent out after registration closed. Except for publishers/vendors for the Tuesday workshop, CEAL members are given first priority over non-CEAL members.
Housing: Both workshops will be held at the Van Pelt Library, University of Pennsylvania, about 2 miles from AAS conference hotel, so please make housing arrangement on your own.

They will also address the benefit from complying with these standards and present examples with best practices. CEAL colleagues will address current metadata issues and challenges for East Asian online resources that affect user experience as well as to report the status of vendors’/librarians’ awareness of established standards and best practices.
Desired outcome:
1) The workshop will bring catalogers, bibliographers, public service librarians, and publishers/vendors together to work collaboratively on improving discoverability and accessibility of e-content;
2) The participants will have a thorough understanding of the impact on user experience from complying with standards;
3) The audience will have recommended criteria to evaluate the e-content presentation and metadata for resources;
4) The librarians will be able to communicate with publishers/vendors of East Asian materials on whether they are compliant with these best practices when negotiating and signing license agreements; and
5) The publishers/vendors will be able to create quality e-content and associated metadata to effectively support different levels of user discovery as well as to eliminate access problems that consume staff time for resolution.
