Please note:

Other metadata elements may be needed for other types of collections.
The sample content provided is meant to be illustrative and not to represent the way in which the data is actually represented in the system.
In several cases the sample content column is blank. This means that the information is inherited from the parent object in the system.
In the case of Rights and Permissions, a blank means that there are no restrictions on the object. A separate working group is discussing what content is to be included in this attribute.
