CARMEN Content Analysis, Retrieval and Metadata:

Effective Networking

- AP2/5 - Metadata for Terms and Conditions and for Archiving: The goal is to collect, process, and set up authority files for concepts, definitions, and examples of metadata concerning archiving and recognition, and for administration of digital rights issues (including the handling of complex documents, the checking of access rights, transparency of copyright, and the authentication and archiving of digital materials)

Electronic Library of Psychology

- Conversion of a psychology textbook collection into digital form (SUB and the Hogrefe-publishing house). The goal is to collect experience and knowledge in the sphere of electronic media preparation and presentation as well as knowledge of user behavior (more than forty textbooks and standard works in psychology). The books are offered through the SUB's home page in PDF format

Format

The file format chosen should be readable without the use of specialized programs

The file format should be robust against damage of media and loss of data

February 14th - 16th, 2002 EMANI Project Meeting EMANI Project Meeting SUB Göttingen

Types of Text Format Mark-up languages like XML or TeX store text and

formatting together. Text can be reconstructed using any text editor, format probably regained

Structured formats like MS Word or PDF need the dedicated program for proper representation and may or may not allow the extraction of the text contained, depending on the particular situation, usually not visible to the user

Consequence: Mark-up formats are better suited for archiving

Metadata for Archiving & Terms and Conditions

Based on experiences from the CARMEN project WP 2/5 (Springer Verlag, TU Muenchen, SUB Göttingen)

Focus on international standards and interoperability of systems and data models: Reference Model for an Open Archival Information System

Focal objectives include: analysis of current developments in the field of metadata

for long term archiving and terms and conditions establishment of functional requirements for preservation

and use condition issues definition of prototypes of metadata elements and

qualifiers eventual implementation of the metadata structure in an

archival environment
