Hello!
You are invited to participate in a survey that will help investigators gain insight into the methods and criteria for evaluating metadata quality in digital repositories and to identify potential gaps in present knowledge and practices. The results from this survey will inform guidelines and suggestions for institutions that want to increase metadata quality assessment activities. This study is being conducted by the Metadata Quality Benchmarks Working Group, part of the Digital Library Federation Forum Assessment Interest Group Metadata Working Group, to investigate metadata quality and how it is measured in libraries, archives, and museums. Anyone who is self-identifying as a metadata professional and is currently employed in a library, archive, museum or other cultural heritage institution is invited to participate. Specifically, eligible participants for this study will be individuals with some responsibility for metadata management and/or creation for a digital repository. One respondent per digital repository is encouraged. The survey should take roughly 15-30 minutes to complete. A PDF of the survey is available for preview. <https://dlfmetadataassessment.github.io/MetadataBenchmarks/assets/Survey%20of%20Metadata%20Quality%20Benchmarks.pdf> Take the Survey on Benchmarks in Metadata Quality<https://survey.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_6tKwGoSvJDuj5uR> If you have any questions about this study, you may contact Rachel Wittmann ([email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>) or Andrea Payant ([email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>).
