    Stuart L. Weibel, Ph.D.
    Senior Research Scientist
    <P>I have worked in OCLC Research since 1985, during which time I have managed projects in the area of automated cataloging, automated document structure analysis, electronic publishing, persistent identifiers, and metadata.</P>
<P>I was a founding member of the <A href="http://www.iw3c2.org/">International World Wide Web Conference Committee</A> (<ACRONYM title="International World Wide Web Conference Committee">IW3C2</ACRONYM>) and have also served on program and organizational committees for the Internet Society, the European Conference on Digital Libraries, the Joint Conference on Digital Libraries, and the International Conference on Asian Digital Libraries. I have also served as both a reviewer and an external evaluator for the National Science Foundation Digital Library Initiative.</P>
<P>My participation with <A href="http://www.w3.org/People/EM/">Eric Miller</A> in the Internet Engineering Task Force working group on Uniform Resource Names led to the development of the <A href="http://purl.org/"><ACRONYM title="Persistent Uniform Resource Locator">PURL</ACRONYM> system</A> at OCLC.</P>
<P>Since 1995 I have organized and led the <A href="http://dublincore.org/">Dublin Core Metadata Initiative</A> workshop series, an international consensus building activity that develops and supports cross-disciplinary resource discovery standards.</P>
