Match the following :

List IList 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)

  • A.a-i, b-iii, c-iv, d-ii
  • B.a-ii, b-iv, c-i, d-iii
  • C.a-iv, b-ii, c-iii, d-i
  • D.a-iii, b-i, c-ii, d-iv

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.
