Good Practices
Six things without which a dataset cannot be found or used, and how live catalogs already do them.
Anti-patterns
Recurring failures of data catalogs and how widespread they are.
Catalog Lifecycle
Launch on real datasets, a quarterly check, a platform change and closure: what to decide while the catalog still opens.
Archiving and Rescuing Catalogs
How catalogs and datasets disappear, why the web archive preserves them poorly and how to take a copy of someone else's catalog while it still opens.
