| Abstract: | The Guide presents an overview of metadata practices in publishing and related initiatives aimed at standardizing how metadata is structured and disseminated online. Metadata in publishing can be classified according to specific functions, such as technical metadata, rights metadata, and preservation metadata. The authors focus on descriptive metadata that characterizes the content itself. The Guide covers metadata's relationship to XML and to identifiers, why metadata is important to publishers and the reader, and then covers several metadata practices in the publishing industry including ONIX, JWP, CrossRef, and OAI. The authors conclude that metadata is an essential part of the publishing process and provides an extensive list of information resources on electronic publishing. |
