Creating Metadata

Today I spent the day learning how to create metadata for
all the documents I’ve scanned in the past month.  Like the assessment I made last week when I discussed digitizing
the Frankish copy book, I’ll never look at metadata the same! It’s surprisingly
difficult to whittle down a pamphlet or document to the right key words and
subjects that will lead researches to the materials they seek.  I hope my first attempt at creating metadata (which I probably spent way too much time overthinking it)
proves fruitful for future researches hoping to learn more about the Etiwanda
Water Company!
