Metadata Strategy UM Core = Dublin Core + UM Structured Fields Provide structured metadata but allow users to map into fields in unstructured ways (contrary to controlled taxonomies of our libraries) Allow for multiple metadata schemas to be attached to a single asset (ie Dublin Core, IMS, SCORM, etc.) 13
UM Core Less structured data may support a greater level of sharing DC_Title DC_Subject DC_Description DC_Creator DC_Date DC_Source DC_Rights DC_Type DC_Publisher DC_Format DC_Language DC_Contributor M_Identifier M_Publisher01 M_Publisher02 M_Subject01 M_Subject02 M_Steward DC_Identifier DC_Coverage DC_Relation 14
