A METS document

Represents an object

Describes the object

and its parts

Describes how the

parts go together

Black Box

APSR/PRESTA Project 2006

Developed a draft profile for the

transfer of an object from one

repository to another

Provided best practice guidelines on

using PREMIS to encode

administrative metadata

www.apsr.edu.au

The dilemma

One core generic profile,

defining all:

standard elements,

attributes,

extension schemas,

controlled

vocabularies

Profile adapted to fit content

models

www.apsr.edu.au

Or…

One core generic profile, PLUS

Multiple content-specific

profiles

Inherit generic rules

Content-specific

usage of elements,

attributes, schemas &

vocabularies

www.apsr.edu.au

What we came up with

www.apsr.edu.au

Taking a walk through the generic profile

Supports “real” requirements

Scalable and extensible

Focuses on terms that might be

used to determine delivery

LABEL and LABELNUMBER can be

used for greater precision in citation
