	* '''Descriptive metadata''' is the most common type of metadata, the one that most people have used. It is data that describes and identifies digital objects whether they were orginally physical artifacts or born digitally. After combining the metadata currently in use for all of our collections, we wound up with an 87-field spreadsheet template: ([[Image:DescriptiveMetadata.xls]]). We are currently mapping all these fields ([[Image:MASTER_LIST_for_Metadata_Fields_in_CONTENTdm_(instructions).docx‎]]) to MODS, and then will be transforming each item's metadata to a MODS XML file for both online delivery and long-term storage. The current mapping can be found on the following page, with each spreadsheet column name in place of the contents of that column's field for an item: [[MODS_Mockup]]		* '''Descriptive metadata''' is the most common type of metadata, the one that most people have used.
