摘要

Founded 1965, the University of Kent is a research led University with 19,275 students and 3,152 staff based at campuses in Canterbury and Medway and centres in Athens, Brussels, Paris, Rome and Tonbridge. Multidisciplinary in nature, the University has 3 faculties comprising 18 academic schools and 3 academic centres. Top 10 for overall student satisfaction in the National Student Survey 2013 the University was 28th in the 2014 Complete University Guide, 20th in the Guardian University Guide 2014 and 24th in the UK for world-leading (4*) research Research Assessment Exercise (RAE) 2008. Information Services (IS) is a converged service comprising Customer Support, Library Collections, IT Development and Planning & Administration providing libraries in Canterbury, Medway and Tonbridge. IS is the custodian of a number of special collections, including the British Cartoon Archive, and works in partnership with Canterbury Cathedral Library and Rochester Cathedral Library. I joined the University as Head of Collection Management in August 2011. Prior to this my background was in academic libraries and professional associations including as Cataloguing Manager at the University of Aberdeen and Manager – Content & Information Architecture at the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS). I have been a member of the CILIP Cataloguing & Indexing Group Committee since 2009 and was elected Chair this year. However I should stress that the views expressed in this article are my own and not necessarily those of the University or CIG. This article also reflects that I have a particular approach to the challenges facing metadata teams and the wider information profession, although I respect the views of others who may disagree with me. I usually describe myself as a glass half-full person, but in doing so acknowledge that it could be fuller of something nicer. Finally I would say that although I have high aspirations I can’t claim to be living the dream – yet!
