(UVa AdminMeta)

Metadata Home > UVa Metadata Administrative Elements (UVa AdminMeta)

UVa AdminMeta is currently under development by the Metadata Steering Group at the University of Virginia Library. The element set, the minimal requirements, and the DTDs are still considered in-progress. The DTD will be released as UVa AdminMeta version 2.0 when development and prototyping are complete.

DTD at: http://text.lib.virginia.edu/dtd/admin/adminmeta.dtd
Documentation
