Abstract

EDITOR'S SUMMARY

Metadata, taxonomies and other similar structures are essential in information architecture today, but often take a long time to fully understand. Metadata is especially misunderstood by many, considering its beginnings as a very technical discipline. For those looking to broaden their knowledge on metadata, Michael C. Andrews' book, Metadata Basics for Web Content: The Unification of Structured Data and Content, is an excellent resource. Despite the title, the book covers the basics of metadata and then goes a step further to explain relationships and present actual use cases. Andrews also defines the terms he is using early on in the book, so that professionals from all areas of information architecture can understand his meaning, even with terms that take on many meanings in the industry.

甚至比元数据基础更好
元数据、分类法和其他类似的结构在当今的信息体系结构中是必不可少的,但通常需要很长时间才能完全理解。元数据尤其被许多人误解,认为它最初是一门非常技术性的学科。对于那些希望扩展元数据知识的人来说,Michael C. Andrews的书《Web内容的元数据基础:结构化数据和内容的统一》是一个很好的资源。尽管书名如此,本书涵盖了元数据的基础知识,然后进一步解释了它们之间的关系,并给出了实际的用例。Andrews还在书的开头部分定义了他所使用的术语,以便所有信息架构领域的专业人士都能理解他的意思,即使这些术语在行业中具有多种含义。
