"The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose
from." -- Grace Murray Hopper
[as quoted in the Unix Haters Handbook, p.10]
e.g. for Culture Grid there's PNDS DCAP, for Europeana there's ESE (but they
will be moving to EDM, the "Europeana Data Model"), then there's also LIDO,
CIDOC-CRM and Museumdat, not forgetting all the others mentioned
here:http://www.getty.edu/research/publications/electronic_publications/intrometadata/crosswalks.html
...and for each of these you need to map the data fields in your collections
management system to the relevant fields in these other data models.

Paul
