Archival & Metadata Development
Careful description of digital assets through metadata is essential to successful digital scholarship. Well-constructed metadata describes a project in a systematic way that attracts users and ensures that a project remains accessible over the long term. The DSL, through affiliated staff in University Libraries, supports the development of robust metadata that meets core archival standards and enhances the discoverability and preservation of digital collections. DSL staff and affiliates also work with faculty to ensure that digital projects and resources developed by BSU researchers can be readily migrated to new platforms and technologies as they emerge.
