Metadata standards

Each concept of a standard, such as inventory number or material, is mapped to a field once and then applies to every standard that uses it. The user handbook covers export and import:

• Export LIDO : check, export, deliver to the Deutsche Digitale Bibliothek (DDB)
• Import LIDO : read in LIDO and EODEM files from other systems

Which mappings the import uses by itself is described in Set up the LIDO import in the setup area.

Mapping the fields belongs to the setup: Bind fields to concepts . Why it is built this way is explained under The idea behind the standards , the profiles and requirement levels under Metadata standards .
