Title
Case study: a metadata scheme for multi-type manuscripts for the T.D. Lee Archives Online.
Abstract
Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to propose a solution for designing a metadata scheme for multi-type manuscripts based on a comparison of various existing metadata schemes. Design/methodology/approach - The diversity of manuscript types is analysed. Descriptive scheme based on machine-readable MARC and metadata specifications-based descriptive scheme are compared. User tasks and resource features are analysed. Several challenges are posed and resolved through the design and establishment of a metadata scheme for the T.D. Lee Archives Online. Findings - Clarify an approach for developing a metadata scheme for multi-type manuscripts. Originality/value - From a multi-type perspective, this study designs a metadata scheme, establishes the element set and expands elements by studying a typical practice case. Useful suggestions for libraries, archives and museums are provided.
