The Metadata Subcommittee worked with the ALA Audio Metadata Task Force, in the Preservation and Reformatting Section (PARS) of the Association for Library Collections and Technical Services (ALCTS), to create this document. It can be found linked from the PARS page at <http://www.ala.org/ala/mgrps/divs/alcts/mgrps/pars/index.cfm>. The document itself is at <http://www.ala.org/ala/mgrps/divs/alcts/resources/preserv/audio_metadata.p df>.
