"I am a Research Officer based at UKOLN, University of Bath. I joined UKOLN in June 1996 and currently work on a variety of projects that relate to Internet resource description, metadata and digital preservation. Most of the projects that I have worked on have been funded by the Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC) or the European Commission. I have, for example, been involved in several projects that concern the development of Internet information gateways (ROADS, DESIRE and Renardus) and have been involved in the development of cataloguing guidelines for the Resource Discovery Network (RDN). Other projects that I am (or have been) involved in concern digital preservation (Cedars, Digital Preservation Coalition), eprints (ePrints UK), cultural heritage metadata developments (SCHEMAS), metadata format conversion (BIBLINK), image metadata (FILTER) and collection-level description (RSLP Collection Description).

I also have a longer-term interest in digital preservation issues, the management of electronic records, subject classification and the impact of information and communication technologies on scholarly communication. I have written about these topics in various columns in the e-journal Ariadne and elsewhere."    - excerpt from Michael Day's Personal Home Page
