Interoperability and Metadata Quality in Digital Video Repositories: A Study of Dublin Core

The purpose of this paper is to examine the interoperability of the Dublin Core metadata element set across a selection of digital video repositories. To explore how the metadata was applied and analyze its overall quality, 150 records were selected, 25 from each of 6 collections, and evaluated for use of the original 15 Dublin Core elements. Each record was examined for metadata completeness, accuracy, consistency, and usage of controlled vocabularies. Potential barriers to interoperability are identified, most notably the confusion caused by semantic ambiguity among DC elements.
