Linking contents in institutional repositories with semantic metadata profiles

Abstract

The objective of this work is to analyze the process for linking content in institutional repositories through the use of semantic metadata profiles. It is estimated that the content relationship in the digital context reveals a series of problems, since the practice required to achieve this objective is the construction of collaboration networks through digital platforms. At first glance, institutional repositories appear to be the ideal mechanism to implement these networks, however, this has not been possible, since the documentary information resources available in the digital environment have metadata schemes that fulfill the function basic description and representation of the characteristics of the resource and requires semantic metadata profiles. This is the aspect that is dealt with in this text. In addition to this, the linking of contents in institutional repositories through semantic metadata profiles is an intellectual analytical process whose main purpose is to offer a mechanism to discover the attributes that are significantly related in a digital context. In the institutional repositories, there is the ideal environment for the application of these profiles, as they are systems used by scientific and academic communities to disseminate and develop their research processes.
