Metadata model for preservation in digital book publishing

Abstract

A model is proposed to guide publishers in the inte-gration of metadata through the publishing process, developed with the application of qualitative methods, software engineering tools and good practices, based on FRBR, OAIS models, as well as the life cycle of the book. It departed from the definition of the publishing process based on typical cases and the identification of the basic preservation metadata of the digital book treated as software and its quality attributes.
