About EAD

EAD stands for Encoded Archival Description, and is a non-proprietary de facto standard for the encoding of finding aids for use in a networked (online) environment. Finding aids are inventories, indexes, or guides that are created by archival and manuscript repositories to provide information about specific collections. While the finding aids may vary somewhat in style, their common purpose is to provide detailed description of the content and intellectual organization of collections of archival materials. EAD allows the standardization of collection information in finding aids within and across repositories.

Scope

The EAD ODD is a XML-TEI document made up of three main parts. The first one is, like any other TEI document, the teiHeader, that comprises the metadata of the specification document. Here we state, among others pieces of information, the sources used to create the specification document in a sourceDesc element. Our two sources are the EAD Tag Library and the RelaxNG XML schema, both published on the Library of Congress website. The second part of the document is a presentation of our method (the foreword) with an introduction to the EAD standard and a description of the structure of the document. This part contains some text extracted from the introduction of the EAD Tag Library. The third part is the schema specification itself : the list of EAD elements and attributes and the way they relate to each others.
