Abstract

Purpose: This research is implemented regarding the examination of metadata schema parameters in digital recourses and identifying an appropriate method. The population consists of 10 metadata schema.

Method: This pattern was extracted by choosing three digital recourses and assemblage of related templates. This research was implemented by descriptive survey method. We examined the similarity of metadata schema to digital resources storage components through a checklist.


Results: Findings show that METS and PREMIS are the most compatible standards for storage and retrieval of images, audio and video digital resources. Also there is no unique metadata for all types of digital resources.regarding to cover the special features of resources. But we can use MARC, Dublin core and MODS in general and PB Core for media and VRA Core for visual asrt. Also we can use MIX for image resources, technical metadata for audio (Audio-MD) for sound resources, technical metadata for video (Video-MD) for video resources and technical metadata for text.
