Description
Relationships are essential in metadata - linking between related resources or parts that make up a whole, keeping metadata linked with the resources it describes, adding meaning and context to resources, and fostering discovery across resources. Learn how Metadata Encoding and Transmission Standard (METS) help maintains links between metadata and the resources it describes; how the Semantic Web, RDF, and Linked Data express relationships between entities to support aggregation and discovery; and how the Bibliographic Framework (BIBFRAME) applies RDF principles and may serve as a successor to MARC 21.
