Hi Vladimir, If you are working in the medical domain, as your signature suggests, then you might find it useful to look at the Medbiquitous Metadata Schema if you havent already done so. The schema is based on Dublin Core and is "intended for use by any one who wants to create, implement, or create interoperable tools for medical content". You can find out more about Medbiquitous at http://www.medbiq.org/index.html Bye Lorna On 8 Oct 2005, at 21:14, Vladimir Makarov wrote: > Dear Colleagues, > I would like to solicit your expert opinion on metadata model choice > for > cataloging the digital library collection. > We are currently deciding between Simple Dublin Core (15 elements, but > we > might extend it and add some custom elements), Qualified Dublin Core > and > Learning Object Metadata Element Sets. > I am aware that while the IEEE LTSC LOM and DCMI cooperative work is > presently ongoing, currently they are still quite distinct choices. > Would > any of you have any experience/preferences that you would like to > share? > > Respectfully, > > Vladimir Makarov, > Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center Library > 1275 York Ave > New York, NY 10021 > Tel: 212-639-7422 > Fax: 212-717-3048 > E-Mail: [log in to unmask] > ------------------------------------ > > -- Lorna M.
