Creation of a UNLV Data Dictionary

Each Data Steward is responsible for providing an entry in a metadata repository which will be used to produce the UNLV data dictionary. They will provide adequate definitions and documentation so that data users on campus understand what this element means, how it is created, and where it is appropriately used.
