Jennifer:

There's a huge amount of work going on in this area currently.  A good
starting point would be the work currently being coordinated by the Getty
Information Institute, accessible through http://www.gii.getty.edu as
usual.  There are also research projects being coordinated by the Linbrary
sector including IFLA (Int. Federation of Library Associations and
Institutions) and Library of Congress etc. etc.
