|| Related Guidance Policy \\ | Metadata | ||
|| Definition/ Description | Structural metadata can be defined as metadata required to describe the internal structure and the component relationships of a digital object. \\
Structural metadata contains information on how the digital object has been created, e.g. metadata collected when digitizing a book. The organisation should document relevant information about the ‘containers’ of the files in the structural metadata and decide what information is to be preserved and if a formal standard is to be used in preserving this type of metadata, for example: use of the [METS|http://www.loc.gov/standards/mets/METSOverview.v2.html] standard. | \\ | ||
|| Why | Structural metadata is important to be able to render the digital object authentically in the future. \\ | ||
|| Risks | Correctly rendering of the digital object may be lost if structural metadata is missing. \\ | ||
