This profile was created to help the University of Rochester Libraries maintain consistent metadata standards when using Archive-It to describe archived websites and collections. Archive-It is a web archiving service used by River Campus Libraries to capture and preserve web content related to the University of Rochester and the city of Rochester.

Archive-It uses the Dublin Core Metadata Set, version 1.1, as the metadata standard across their three levels of access: Collection, Seed, and Document. This application profile makes use of this structure and is meant to be a reference guide for catalogers/metadata specialists and web content curators. Collections of archived websites should be described at both the Collection and Seed level.

The standards outlined in this profile are primarily adapted from:

Dooley, Jackie, and Kate Bowers. 2018. Descriptive Metadata for Web Archiving: Recommendations of the OCLC Research Library Partnership Web Archiving Metadata Working Group. Dublin, OH: OCLC Research. https://doi.org/10.25333/C3005C.
