shrug-l: Metadata literature question

[Katherine Milla]

Metadata literature questionThe NOAA Coastal Services Center used to teach a very excellent short course on creating metadata.  They no longer teach the course, but their course materials are available online:  http://www.csc.noaa.gov/metadata/curriculum/modules.html

  Subject: shrug-l: Metadata literature question




  I am creating a metadata class for Seminole County users and have had LOTS of fun wading through the legalese of the FDGC standards. :) I finally got the standards and keyword thesaurus done and am creating the class. However, I am having trouble finding ANY literature on metadata to use as source material other than the aforesaid legalese, the excellent example of the SJRWMD metadata, and a PowerPoint from someone within our county. I did not see anything on the ESRI site (maybe I missed something?) Can anyone refer me to any published metadata instruction other than the FDGC standards, especially more examples of practical application of FDGC standards?

  Thanks,
