Abstract

Notes the heightened awareness among information professionals, caused by the increasing use of the Internet, of the need to provide user freindly searching and navigation tools and the potential role of metadata in achieving this end. Concentrates on the specific formats of metadata, reviews a number of metadata formats (IAFA/WHOIS++, MARC, TEI, Dublin Core, URCs) and compares them according to the criteria of: constituency; ease of creation; content; associated Internet protocols; and progress towards international standard status

Abstract

This paper describes emerging metadata practice and standards. It gives an overview of the environments in which metatdata is used, before focusing on metadata for information resources. It outlines an approximate typology of approaches and explores different strands of metadata activity. It discusses trends in format development, metadata management, and use of search and retrieve protocols. It concludes by discussing some features of future deploament of metadata in support of network resource discovery
