Metadata framework survey


Thank you for taking part in this Barcelona Declaration survey. The survey is organized by the Working Group on journal article metadata and book metadata. It is distributed among participants of all Barcelona Declaration Working Groups.


The aim of the survey is to develop a framework for open publication metadata, identifying key metadata fields and how well they are represented in various sources.


You will be asked to select the metadata elements that are most relevant for you in your work, and then rank each of them on four different aspects.


The survey will take approximately 10-15 minutes.


Data use and privacy:

Your answers will be processed solely for the stated purpose of this survey (mapping institutional repository workflows), handled confidentially and stored securely, and may be included in aggregated/anonymised analyses. They will not be used for marketing, advertising, or promotional outreach
