The Library of Congress is seeking input for the next two weeks on this draft of their action plan. The plan grows out of last November's conference, Bibliographic Control for the New Millennium: Confronting the Challenge of Networked Resources and the Web, and also takes into account
LC21: A Digital Strategy for the Library of Congress, the National Academy of Sciences report commissioned by the Library (see the
August 2, 2000 Scout Report). The goals of the conference were to develop a strategy to improve access to Web resources through cataloging and the use of metadata, and to outline actions to achieve the strategy. The plan is brief and distills the input toward those goals.
