So far, our previous Training Sessions #1 and #2 dealt with defining metadata and examining the PBCore metadata elements. Training #3 is now available On-Demand in a variety of digital file formats.
PBCore Session 103. The PBCore XML Schema
Provides a general discussion of what an XML Schema is, and a look at how the PBCore XML Schema can be used to implement the PBCore metadata dictionary within information and cataloging systems. The session explains how important the XML Schema is for sharing metadata and interoperability. Foreshadowed is the impending release of our PBCore Cataloging Tool that comes complete with XML import and export functionality.
The on-demand versions of the trainings are posted as PowerPoint, Acrobat PDF, QuickTime Movie, Audio MP3, and iTunes/iPod Compatible Video. To download, visit our web page http://pbcore.org/PBCore/PBCore_TrainingMaterials.html.
The PBCore Project is administered by the Carl and Ruth Shapiro Family National Center for Accessible Media at WGBH (NCAM). Initial PBCore development, advocacy and training is funded by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
