RDA Metadata Standards Catalog WG: Final Report
Creators
Description
The Metadata Standards Catalog Working Group continued the work of the Metadata Standards Directory Working Group, to develop a directory that would enable researchers, and those who support them, to discover metadata standards appropriate for documenting their research data. The particular goals of this phase of work were to simplify the process of contributing to the Catalog for users, enrich the information held to support more use cases, provide a machine-to-machine API, and provide a more flexible basis for future enhancements. The Group collected user stories describing ways the Catalog might be used. These were organized into a requirements specification that was used as the basis for developing the Catalog Web application. The Catalog is now live and accepting contributions from the community. A Metadata Standards Catalog maintenance activity continues under the umbrella of the Metadata Interest Group. Further developments are planned, including support for analyzing metadata schemes through the lens of the Metadata Interest Group's concept of metadata packages.
