<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>OpenURL
is inextricably entwined with modern information services supplied by, among
others, libraries, resource providers, and system vendors. All of these
constituents and the end users whom they serve rely on the accuracy and
dependability of OpenURLs to bring information within easy reach; ideally,
within two mouse clicks. But the services powered by OpenURLs can be brought
low quickly by one or more errors within the citation data and/or the OpenURL
encoding itself. Such errors can leave librarians mystified, resource providers
puzzled, and users unhappy at a service's failure to deliver, yet they are all
too common.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

October webinar--<b>It’s Only as Good as the Metadata: Improving OpenURL
and Knowledgebase Quality</b>—discusses several efforts in place or
underway to ensure the quality of OpenURL data and the knowledgebases that
OpenURL links depend on. Is anyone keeping watch over the accuracy and
dependability of OpenURLs? Are resource providers and system vendors held
accountable for their applications of the OpenURL standard (ANSI/NISO Z39.88)?
What can librarians do to bring these problems to the attention of their
suppliers? This webinar will address these and other issues of OpenURL accuracy
in both theory and practice.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
