Les métadonnées constituent des outils importants pour la description et la gestion des produits d'information. Disposer d'un système efficace dans ce domaine s'avère d'autant plus important que les ressources d'information sont le plus souvent invisibles, car elles demeurent enfouies dans une base de données ou un site Web jusqu'à ce qu'un utilisateur lance une requête pour repérer des renseignements dont il a ponctuellement besoin. 1, record 3, French, - enfoui%20dans%20un%20site%20Web
