Abstract
The Internet Public Library (IPL) is crosswalking its metadata to Dublin Core compliant metadata. This involves several research activities, including: quantitative and qualitative analyses of the existing IPL metadata; the creation of a new IPL metadata schema as an application profile of Dublin core; the development of a new database structure; and the development and testing of a new metadata creation and maintenance interface. This poster describes and provides illustrations of these activities.
