apeMETS

The use of METS in the Archives Portal Europe

The Archives Portal Europe team first started using METS during the APEx project (2012-2015). The information of the first apeMETS implementation from 2014 can still be found on the website of the APEx project en is now completely transferred to this page. Recently, August 2017, the Archives Portal Europe team conducted a first revision of this apeMETS implementation under supervision of the Working Group on Standards of the Archives Portal Europe Foundation, namely the adaptation of the apeMETSRights schema. This was necessary to be able to align the apeMETSRights values and statements with the ones the portal is using for forwarding content to Europeana.
