I'm looking for any standards used for describing human events such as - seminars, meetings, exhibitions, projects. MARC21 has a format for community information but it is too rich. We need something simpler in terms of data element choices but with the granularity to interface with other scheduling systems. As an example of an application where such a schema would be useful see http://www.nla.gov.au/apps/events/. This is generated from a database for which we have our own XML schema but we would like to start exchanging information about events with other cultural organisations - eg - to provide combined calendars of events. There are some calendar standards but they tend to focus on standards for exchanging date/time information rather than information about the events themselves - eg. agents having a role in relation to the event, location, description, etc. Monica Berko National Library of Australia
