Where can I find information about the HEAL metadata schema?
The HEAL metadata schema is the foundation on which the HEAL distributed system is built; the schema is based on international standards and includes extensions specific to the health sciences. You may implement the HEAL metadata schema on your local system or further extend the schema to meet local needs. The metadata schema provides an important mechanism for the HEAL server to share data with partner collections located on remote servers. As feedback is received from the health sciences community, the HEAL metadata schema is improved and updated. See the Metadata Schema page for additional information.
