The third edition of this landmark textbook has been thoroughly
updated to incorporate the many developments and changes in
metadata and related domains. Authors Marcia Lei Zeng and Jian Qin
provide a solid grounding in the variety and interrelationships
among different metadata types, offering a comprehensive look at
the metadata schemas that exist in the world of library and
information science and beyond. Readers will gain knowledge and an
understanding of key topics such as: metadata building blocks, from
modeling to defining properties, from designing application
profiles to implementing value vocabularies, and from specification
generating to schema encoding, illustrated with new examples best
practices for metadata as linked data, the new functionality
brought by implementing the linked data principles, and the
importance of knowledge organization systems resource metadata
services, quality measurement, and interoperability approaches
research data management concepts like the FAIR principles,
metadata publishing on the web and the recommendations by the W3C
in 2017, related Open Science metadata standards such as Data
Catalog Vocabulary (DCAT) version 2, and metadata-enabled
reproducibility and replicability of research data standards used
in libraries, archives, museums, and other information
institutions, plus existing metadata standards’ new versions,
such as the EAD 3, LIDO 1.1, MODS 3.7, DC Terms 2020 release
coordinating its ISO 15396-2:2019, and Schema.org’s update in
responding to the pandemic newer, trending forces that are
impacting the metadata domain, including entity management,
semantic enrichment for the existing metadata, mashup culture such
as enhanced Wikimedia contents, knowledge graphs and related
processes, semantic annotations and analysis for unstructured data,
and supporting digital humanities (DH) through smart data.
Featuring new developments driven by semantic technologies and
digital data and information, with an accompanying website and
supplementary learning materials, this remains the definitive
primer on metadata for students, instructors, faculty, and
professionals at all levels of experience.
The purpose of authority control is to ensure consistency in
representing a value - a name of a person, a place name, or a term
or code representing a subject - in the elements used as access
points in information retrieval. The primary purpose of this study
is to produce a framework that will provide a clearly stated and
commonly shared understanding of what the subject authority
data/record/file aims to provide information about, and the
expectation of what such data should achieve in terms of answering
user needs.
The first comprehensive exploration of the development and use of
the International Federation of Library Associations and
Institutions' (IFLA) newly released model for subject authority
data, covering everything from the rationale for creating the model
to practical steps for implementing it. FRSAD: Conceptual Modeling
of Aboutness explores the full dimensions of the IFLA's Functional
Requirements for Subject Authority Data model, showing how putting
the model to work can ease information sharing across systems,
domains, and environments. Written by three leading members of the
IFLA working group that developed the model, FRSAD moves from the
theoretical foundations of knowledge organization to a complete
conceptual overview of the model, to specific working guidelines
for its implementation. The book is filled with insights into the
factors driving the model's development, as well as numerous
illustrative examples of its practical applications in real-world
settings. It also focuses on the benefits of using the model when
developing knowledge organization systems (KOS) within the library
domain and beyond.
