Brian,
Both ADAM & VADS make extensive use of metadata to provide interoperable
standards-compliant resource discovery services for the visual arts. In
addition to the core resource discovery services, both services provide
a number of other metadata-related resources:
ADAM Quick Guide to Metadata (includes DC 'apple core' logos)
http://adam.ac.uk/adam/metadata.html
dc.bot: the ADAM metadata-aware web harvester
http://adam.ac.uk/adam/tech/dc.bot/
Visual Arts, Museums & Cultural Heritage Information Standards
http://vads.ahds.ac.uk/standards.html
Visual Arts, Museums & Cultural Heritage Metadata Workshop Report
http://vads.ahds.ac.uk/metadataf1.html
Some time soon now we will also be providing a site search engine on the
ADAM site that uses embedded Dublin Core metadata both to relevance-rank
the search results, and to display the descriptions of each page from
the embedded metadata, but I can't promise that it will be ready in time
for the workshop.

VADS: Visual Arts Data Service
