“…A great portion of the research has focused on “crosswalks, frameworks and supermetadata issues.” There have been also studies on “the practitioner's use of metadata concepts, the application of metadata” (Lee, p. 7). For instance, Clair () reported a project on the development of a PBCore application profile for Penn State library that included “a core element set upon which specific schemas can be seamlessly constructed to suit locally developed audiovisual collections” (p. 55).…”

“…The present study reports the results of a usability assessment of http://PBCore.org, a technical website developed and supported by WGBH, a non‐profit public media producer serving New England. According to Clair (), “the PBCore standard initially emerged from the public broadcasting community, with its initial funding coming from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and its continuing maintenance done by WGBH in Boston” (p. 54). http://PBCore.org hosts the Public Broadcasting Metadata Dictionary (PBCore), an XML‐based metadata schema designed for the descriptive cataloging and management of sound and moving images.…”

This paper reports a usability and user experience research study of http://PBCore.org, a WGBH website supporting the PBCore metadata dictionary. Usability testing was conducted with 53 participants who worked in audiovisual processing and archiving. Significant differences in task performances and interaction experiences among user groups were found, most notably between broadcast and information professionals, archivists/librarians and other staff, and participants who had an LIS degree and those who did not. Qualitative observations afforded a deeper understanding of the difficulties that non‐LIS participants encountered. Recommendations for designing a more inclusive technical website include providing contextual and practical information on the homepage, delivering technical content visually and interactively, offering understandable definitions of terminology, and building a vibrant user community. Further research documenting users' knowledge gaps would be valuable. The paper concludes with a call for developing specific usability requirements for technical websites to create an inclusive and accessible user experience.

“…Although their focus is on pulling together elements from different national standards, application profiles are similar to data dictionaries in that they define local use of metadata elements, but they are frequently designed to be used beyond the local community that created them. Application profiles may be developed for all resources for a digital repository system, as is the case with the OhioLINK Digital Media Center (Hicks, Perkins, & Maurer, 2007), or they may be developed for a particular type of content (Clair, 2008;Tambouris, Manouselis, & Costopoulou, 2007). However, drawing elements from different namespaces can present challenges, such as when one schema has a hierarchical structure while another allows for only limited relationships (Devey & Côté, 2006).…”

This paper describes a study developed with the goal to understand the panorama of the metadata Application Profiles (AP): (i) what AP have been developed so far; (ii) what type of institutions have developed these AP; (iii) what are the application domains of these AP; (iv) what are the Metadata Schemes (MS) used by these AP; (v) what application domains have been producing MS; (vi) what are the Syntax Encoding Schemes (SES) and the Vocabulary Encoding Schemes (VES) used by these AP; and finally (vii) if these AP have followed the Singapore Framework (SF). We found (i) 74 AP; (ii) the AP are mostly developed by the scientific community, (iii) the 'Learning Objects' domain is the most intensive producer; (iv) Dublin Core metadata vocabularies are the most used and are being used in all domains of application and IEEE LOM is the second most used but only inside the 'Learning Objects' application domain; (v) the most intensive producer of MS is the domain of 'Libraries and Repositories'; (vi) 13 distinct SES and 90 distinct VES were used; (vi) five of the 74 AP found follow the SF.
