Introduction to Dublin Core Metadata - Online

Description
This three-day online workshop will concentrate on the creation of both simple and qualified Dublin Core metadata for digital objects. We will also explore the concept of devising best practices for cataloging, using the Collaborative Digitization Program’s Dublin Core Metadata Best Practices as a guide. Participants will have opportunities to practice with hands-on exercises.

NOTE: This course is designed for individual participation. Regardless of whether you attend as an individual or as a group, the fee for this online workshop will be charged for each person who views the session. All participants must register separately.

Who Should Attend
Staff from libraries and cultural heritage institutions who wish to learn more about Dublin Core metadata and how to use it to describe digital objects. Although not required, participants who are new to metadata and the digital environment may want to first attend the online workshop, Introduction to Metadata for the Digital Environment: http://www.bcr.org/training/schedule/programdetail.php?programid=402 . This workshop provides participants with a strong foundation in metadata principles, which are not covered in the Introduction to Dublin Core Metadata class.
