Understanding and implementing METS, A tutorial focused on METS 2 -- pt 1 -- iPRES Workshop HH1

Presenter(s): Karin Bredenberg, Juha Lehtonen and Aaron Elkiss

Abstract: This half day tutorial will provide participants with an introduction to the Metadata Encoding and Transmission Standard (METS) starting in METS version 1 and the METS Primer [1], but focusing on METS version 2. It will give a basic overview of METS and explore different models of implementation. The METS schema is a standard for encoding descriptive, administrative, and structural metadata regarding objects within a digital library as well as digital archives, expressed using the XML schema language of the World Wide Web Consortium. It is maintained by the METS Editorial Board, and the METS Maintenance Activity is managed by the Library of Congress [2].
