(LIDO, CIDOC-CRM, EAD, METS )

progress
• Need for interoperability

3. MINT Mapping Tool
• Provides users the ability to perform a mapping of
their own metadata schemas to reference domain
models

• It was developed for ATHENA, but it is currently used
for EUScreen, CARARE, Judaica, ECLAP, DCA and
Linked Heritage

performance
