Match the following :
| List I | List II |
|---|---|
| (a) Dublin core | (i) DCMI |
| (b) e-GMS | (ii) Library of Congress |
| (c) METS | (iii) Government of UK |
| (d) MODS | (iv) DLF (Digital Library Federation) |
Answer: A
The correct match is a-i, b-iii, c-iv, d-ii.
Dublin Core is maintained by the Dublin Core Metadata Initiative, DCMI (a-i). e-GMS, the e-Government Metadata Standard, was issued by the Government of the UK (b-iii). METS, the Metadata Encoding and Transmission Standard, began as an initiative of the Digital Library Federation (c-iv). MODS, the Metadata Object Description Schema, was developed by the Library of Congress (d-ii).
A trap: the Library of Congress also maintains METS today, but METS originated with the DLF, and MODS is the Library of Congress's own schema. Only option A fits.
