Assertion (A) : Metadata hold much promise for information retrieval and access in the digital age.
Reason (R) : Metadata can save a number of functions including description, resource discovery and management of resources.
Codes :
Answer: C
Both statements are true. Metadata, data about data, supports retrieval and access of digital resources by describing them. It serves several functions, including description, resource discovery and management of resources, which is the basis of the promise in the assertion. So both (A) and (R) are true. The options that call either false are wrong. Dublin Core, a set of fifteen elements, is a well-known metadata scheme that serves this purpose for web resources.
