CEDISH Co-Lab 3.02.38, 3rd Floor, John Peace Library

What is metadata and how does it affect digital humanities project work? In this workshop, we will review the basic concept of metadata and how it can influence digital projects, particularly those that include images like exhibits and mapping. Through the lens of preserving cultural heritage, you will learn about some of the more popular types of metadata schema and participate in a hands-on Dublin Core cataloging exercise. We plan to make time to open a discussion after the exercise is completed.

Please feel welcome to bring questions about specific work you have questions about.

Limited to 10 attendees
