Publishers and content providers are providing significant metadata. Some of them still do not provide even basic KBARTish formatted files.

System vendors: their systems are unable to process them fully and their discovery layers do not display the enriched data.
Consortia: good metadata is not on the negotiating table
“What options do we have for speeding the grindingly slow process of getting our metadata in order, and improving systems interoperability? Boring, but really necessary.”Ann RossiterSociety of College, National and University Libraries (SCONUL)UKSG 2016
» Librarians and their negotiating agents should bring metadata to the negotiating table
» The library community should strongly support good examples of content providers and a service at the national level
» System vendors should assume their role as part of the digital transformation within the industry, and should share their responsibility with their customers

Why KBART?Adoption of Knowledgebases And Related Tools (KBART) Recommended Practice gives content providers a single source of data to distribute to content aggregators, knowledgebase (KB) vendors, and libraries. KBART data is a universally-accepted data format that is human-readable for marketing and product information purposes as well as machine-readable to facilitate automated delivery of data to KB vendors. Putting your data into KBART format makes it easier for librarians to use your content and for library users to find and access that same content on your platform, increasing your site traffic and ROI for libraries.KBART EndorsementThe KBART Standing Committee members are information professionals from content providers, knowledgebase vendors, and librarians, who are happy to help you learn KBART as you develop your data feeds and address any questions you may have about the Recommended Practice. We encourage you to submit sample data to the Standing Committee ([email protected]) for review and feedback to ensure that it will meet the needs of your customers and work optimally with vendors' products.If your data meets the guidelines of KBART, the Standing Committee will endorse your files. Being able to say that your files are KBART-endorsed will create confidence in the quality of your metadata to those who use your files.Where to find more informationhttp://www.niso.org/workrooms/kbarthttp://www.niso.org/workrooms/kbart/endorsement/
