Dear Colleagues,
Minnesota Public Radio has drafted a metadata scheme to describe the
resources stored or tracked by a digital archive that is currently in
development. The scheme is based on Dublin Core and includes elements from
the Library of Congress Audio Visual Metadata Scheme as well as a number of
local metadata elements.
A draft of the metadata scheme and an example of its application to a
program of A Prairie Home Companion has been posted on MPR's digital
archive project web page: www.openarchive.org/meta
The scheme was developed by a Dublin Core novice after extensive review of
DCMI resources and the archives of DC-listservs. Any comments and
suggestions for improvement would be very much appreciated! Comments may be
posted directly from the web page.
Thanks!
Nathan
