CA One problem in the field of radio archives is the tendency to view anything that is not audio or video (specifically this leaves text) as metadata. However, all text is not metadata. While all text can be seen as potentially useful due to the information it represents, the creators of P/FRA recommend standardizing only the essential information needed to describe and retrieve radio archive information.
Conclusions
RQ Rules need to be drafted specifying the content of metadata fields. While the authors extol the value of ÔÇ£good metadataÔÇØ for resource discovery, proscribing the content of metadata containers is a problem here as in every other filed.
