Description: This tutorial will provide participants with an introduction to the Metadata Encoding and Transmission Standard (METS) and the METS Primer.

The METS schema is a standard for encoding descriptive, administrative, and structural metadata regarding objects within a digital library as well as digital archives, expressed using the XML schema language of the World Wide Web Consortium. It is maintained by the METS Board and the METS Maintenance Activity is managed by the Library of Congress.
