Metadata for Digital Project
Staff



Metadata is a fundamental element of any digitization project.
Designed for non-catalogers, this session focuses on using metadata to
facilitate both access to and preservation of digital resources. Topics
include: review of metadata schema choices, development of a
preservation metadata model, and using XML to store metadata.
What you will learn:
- An understanding of what metadata is and how it facilitates
access to and preservation of digital resources;
- An awareness of appropriate metadata schema, including Dublin
Core;
- An understanding of current and developing standards; and
- The benefits of using metadata and XML together.
