The project team at TxCDK consists of the following people:

• Dr. William E. Moen, Principal Investigator

• Jason Thomale, Research Assistant and Masters student in SLIS

• JungWon Yoon, Research Assistant and Ph.D. student in the Interdisciplinary Information Science Ph.D. program

In addition, the project contracted with Penelope Benardino, a former SLIS Masters student, to assist with various issues related to MARC, library cataloging, and database indexing policies.
