Development of a metadata application profile at the State Library of New South Wales
Abstract
In 2004 the State Library of New South Wales (SLNSW) launched the atmitchell.com initiative to develop a new technology platform to manage the digitisation of its unique and significant collections and make them available via the Internet. To enhance the development of atmitchell.com the library is implementing a new archival collection management system (ACMS), digital object management system (DAMS) and web content management system (WCMS). In 2006 a team of staff at the Library developed a Metadata Application Profile (MAP) that specifies a set of metadata elements to meet the metadata and search requirements for atmitchell.com.
