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.
*Register for waiting list only*
