Abstract:
Metadata and Metadata Standards: We’ve all heard they are vital to content being found, managed, analysed, efficiently consumed, and efficiently and cost-effectively translated. But which metadata? Where? How much do you need? What difference does it make to end users vs. authors?

There’s enormous talk around metadata, but because of the massive number of ways that metadata can and must be applied in modern content lifecycles, practitioners in the field are often overwhelmed by options. Worse still, many evaluate, purchase and migrate to new systems without properly exploring their long-term potential metadata needs and options. The result can be poor tool choices, missed opportunities for improved customer experience, and hard-to-use, under-performing systems.

The more you know about metadata, the better.
