4. Metadata schemes
partners
Dublin Core
EAD
MARC21
METS/MODS
TEI
Private schemata (Open source software and/or
SQL databases)

5. Aggregators
Judaica Europeana (2010 – 2012)
Digital Manuscripts to Europeana
(DM2E)
Athena Plus

6. Europeana
Metadata Schemes
Europeana Semantic Elements (ESE)
http://www.europeana.eu/schemas/ese/
Europeana Data Model (EDM)
http://pro.europeana.eu/edm-documentation
•
•
allows to use linked data
URI from provider or automatic enrichment
hierarchy (is part of)

7. Mapping for specific projects
DM2E extensions
http://dm2e.eu/document/#DM2EModelSpecification
•
allow for annotations on a page level and within
page to be shared
Athena Plus
ingestion via LIDO
http://www.lido-schema.org/schema/v0.9/lido-v0.9-schema-listing.html
• delivery format for museum objects

8. Challenges
• analyze source data
• vast amount of EDM fields – find most
appropriate for each element in source data
• avoid data loss (including structure of original
data)
• functionality vs. appearance in Europeana
