In order to support cataloging
efforts at subscribing institutions, the Women Writers Project offers free metadata
records for all texts published as part of Women Writers Online (WWO). Every time new
texts are published in WWO, we will update this page with a metadata set consisting of
records created or changed after the last publication. At that time, we will also update
the set containing records for all published WWO texts.
Jeremy Myntti is the Head of
Cataloging and Metadata Services at the University of Utah’s J. Willard Marriott Library.
Jeremy recently gave a presentation at the ALA Midwinter conference entitled
Re-Discovering and Linking Metadata in Viewshare. In the presentation, he described how he
created a view from the metadata of the Western Soundscape Archive. He found that
Viewshare enabled “more possibilities for creating unique experiences for users.”
Dongsok Shin performs the Giga of
Sonata number 6 in B flat major by Lodovico Giustini (1685-1743) on the earliest known
surviving piano, made by the instrument's inventor, Bartolomeo Cristofori (1655-1731), in
Florence, 1720. This sonata is from the 12 Sonate da cimbalo di piano e forte detto
volgarmente di martelletti, Op. 1, written in 1732. These are the first known pieces to
have been composed specifically for the piano.
