METADATA: AN INTRODUCTION Presented by: Hamidahbt. HJ. A. Rahman Senior Lecturer Faculty of Information Management UiTMPuncakPerdana Campus 40150 Shah Alam SELANGOR DARUL EHSAN 4/5/2010 1
Metadata is structured data which describes the characteristics of a resource.  It shares many similar characteristics to the cataloguing that takes place in libraries, museums and archives.  The term "meta" derives from the Greek word denoting a nature of a higher order or more fundamental kind.  A metadata record consists of a number of pre-defined elements representing specific attributes of a resource, and each element can have one or more values. 4/5/2010 2 What is metadata?
What is metadata? Structured data about resources Library catalogues Abstracting and indexing services Archival finding aids Museum documentation Community information Carriers:  MARC, HTML, SGML, XML 4/5/2010 3
Types of metadata Descriptive Metadata Administrative Metadata Structural Metadata 4/5/2010 4
Types of metadata Descriptive Metadata Administrative Metadata Structural Metadata 4/5/2010 5
Types of metadata Descriptive Metadata:  to serve the purposes of discovery (how one finds a resource), identification (how a resource can be distinguished from other, similar resources), and selection (how to determine that a resource fills a particular need, for example, for the DVD version of a video recording) 4/5/2010 6
Types of metadata Administrative Metadata: is information intended to facilitate the management of resources. It can include such information as when and how an object was created,who is responsible for controlling access to or archiving the content, what control or processing activities have been performed in relation to it, and what restrictions on access or use apply. 4/5/2010 7
Types of metadata Structural Metadata (SM): can be thought of as the glue that holds compound digital objects together. A book, for example, may have many chapters, each consisting of a set of pages, each page represented by a separate digital file. Structural metadata (SM) is required to record the relationships between physical files and pages, between pages and chapters, and between chapters and the book as a whole. Presentation software uses SM to display Tables of contents and to deliver such functions as going directly to a requested chapter, or to turn pages forward or backward in order. 4/5/2010 8
Why use metadata? Metadata provides the essential link between the information creator and the information user. 4/5/2010 9
Aim of metadata While the primary aim of metadata is to improve resource discovery, metadata sets are also being developed for other reasons, including: ,[object Object]
security
personal information
management information
content rating
rights management
preservation4/5/2010 10
Metadata may be deployed in a number of ways: Embedding the metadata in the Web page by the creator or their agent using META tags in the HTML coding of the page  As a separate HTML document linked to the resource it describes  In a database linked to the resource. The records may either have been directly created within the database or extracted from another source, such as Web pages. 4/5/2010 11
Some of the most popular metadata schemas include: ,[object Object]
AACR2 (Anglo-American Cataloging Rules)
GILS (Government Information Locator Service)
EAD (Encoded Archives Description) IMS (IMS Global Learning Consortium)  AGLS (Australian Government Locator Service)  4/5/2010 12
The data will be unusable, unless the encoding scheme understands the semantics of the metadata schema. The encoding allows the metadata to be processed by a computer program.  Important schemes include: HTML(Hyper-Text Markup Language)  SGML (Standard Generalised Markup Language)  XML (eXtensible Markup Language)  RDF (Resource Description Framework)  MARC (MAchine Readable Cataloging)  MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions)  4/5/2010 13
Markup languages SGML- Standard Generalised Markup Language  - controls document formatting for publication XML- Extensible Markup Language  - “next generation” SGML HTML- Hyper Text Markup Language  - SGML subset, controls display of web pages Tags (usually paired) structure text into elements e.g. headings, paragraphs, lists, etc. <title> </title>   <p> </p>   <li> </li> 4/5/2010 14

This service will retrieve a Web page and automatically generate Dublin Core metadata, either as HTML tags or as RDF/XML, suitable for embedding in the section of the page. DCmeta - http://www.dstc.edu.au/RDU/MetaWeb/generic_tool.html. Developed by Tasmania Online. It is based on SuperNoteTab text-editor and can be customised. HotMeta - http://www.dstc.edu.au/Research/Projects/hotmeta/. A package of software, including metadata editor, repository and search engine. 4/5/2010 35
