Introduction to metadata and mapping to the Europeana Data Model (EDM)
Are you considering to share your data with Europeana? And do you work in a cultural heritage institution (CHI) that has a collection of objects but very few resources in terms of staff and funding, and a lack of technological skills? Or do you want to learn about metadata, enrichment and the Europeana Data Model in general? In both cases, this course is for you!
The learning goals are:
· Learn about metadata and get a basic understanding of the Europeana Data Model (EDM), a metadata standard adopted by Europeana.
- Get an an introduction to preparing effective digital content and metadata to be shared with Europeana
- Learn how to semantically enrich your data to facilitate discoverability.
- Learn how to successfully associate the right licence to your digital content.
- Put into practice what you have learned filling an Excel spreadsheet with the metadata related to one or more records that you would like to make interoperable with Europeana.
