Subject: Metadata Standards and Guidelines for Digital Audio document
online
MLA's Bibliographic Control Committee and its Metadata Subcommittee are
pleased to announce the online release of "Metadata Standards and
Guidelines for Digital Audio." The Metadata Subcommittee worked with the
ALA Audio Metadata Task Force, in the Preservation and Reformatting
Section (PARS) of the Association for Library Collections and Technical
Services (ALCTS), to create this document. It can be found linked from the
PARS page at
<http://www.ala.org/ala/mgrps/divs/alcts/mgrps/pars/index.cfm>. The
document itself is
at
<http://www.ala.org/ala/mgrps/divs/alcts/resources/preserv/audio_metadata.p
df>.
The document outlines a number of metadata standards relevant to the
description and management of digital audio, explaining its purpose and
providing links to documentation and relevant examples. We hope it will be
useful to the MLA community.
