Hi folks,
I'm teaching metadata in class tomorrow, and I find myself scrabbling
(again) to find any examples of full metadata in the cultural and heritage
sector, using VRA or IPTC or even Dublin Core. What I'd really like is a
site that had various examples of a digitised image of something, plus all
the metadata that goes alongside that item (this information is generally
seldom public facing). I'm wondering why such a site doesnt exist, and what
it would take to put it together... but in the meantime, would anyone care
to share with me one good example of an image plus ALL of its metadata that
you have? We really need examples of these to show students and to help
teach them about the best practice, the complexities, and what people are
actually doing in the sector...
Any help gratefully received, and if its not in time for tomorrow, no
matter! I can keep examples for class next term!
best
Melissa
