Approaches to Building Metadata for Data Curation

In National Taiwan University (NTU), the Library aims to provide data curation services for university researchers from different research fields, particularly focusing on those from small sciences. In this paper, we will first investigate existing metadata schemas used for data curation services in North America and Europe. Next, we will attempt to develop an application profile, proposing metadata fields to be applied to data curation services in NTU. Finally, we will discuss our findings in this study, and take further action to develop a repository platform
