LIDO handbook for the collection and publication of metadata on cultural objects, Volume 3: Architecture and other immovable works Edit

Volume 3 of the LIDO Handbook focuses on architecture and other immovable works. In order to aggregate data from different subject-specific information systems on cross-institutional platforms such as the German Digital Library, it is necessary to apply common standards for data content and data structure. This manual is an application profile of the LIDO metadata standard, containing all the data fields relevant for the description of immovable works, e.g. architecture. It explains each data field and provides advice on recording, examples of content and instructions for exporting data in the LIDO XML format. All recommendations are aimed at preparing data from different sources in order to achieve the most comprehensive and accurate search results and to open up paths for further information cross-linking.
