MLA's Bibliographic Control Committee and its Metadata Subcommittee are pleased to announce the online release of "Metadata Standards and Guidelines for Digital Audio." The Metadata Subcommittee worked with the ALA Audio Metadata Task Force, in the Preservation and Reformatting Section (PARS) of the Association for Library Collections and Technical Services (ALCTS), to create this document. It can be found linked from the PARS page or you can link directly to the document.
The document outlines a number of metadata standards relevant to the description and management of digital audio, explaining its purpose and providing links to documentation and relevant examples. We hope it will be useful to the MLA community.

Chair, MLA BCC Metadata Subcommittee
