Cultural heritage professionals have high levels of training in metadata. However, the institutions in which they practice often depend on support staff, volunteers, & students in order to function. With limited time & funding for training in metadata creation for digital collections, there are often many questions about metadata without a reliable, direct source for answers. 

The Metadata Manual provides such a resource, answering basic metadata questions that may appear, & exploring metadata from a beginner's perspective. This title covers metadata basics, XML basics, Dublin Core, VRA Core, & CDWA schemes & provides exercise in the creation of metadata. Finally, the book gives an overview of metadata, including mapping & sharing.

  • Outlines the most popular metadata schema written by practicing metadata librarians
  • Focuses on what you "need to know”
  • Does not require coding experience to use & understand
