WIP Metadata Best Practices - thoth-pub/thoth GitHub Wiki

Work in progress...

• Consider integrating the creation of title and chapter-level metadata records in Thoth early in your publishing workflow, to ensure detailed, high-quality metadata records are available right at the time of online publication for your books.
• Refer to Thoth’s mandatory, recommended and optional elements to make sure your metadata records can be submitted to your selected platforms.
• Review and maintain the metadata, keeping it clean, complete, and up-to-date. Incorrect or incomplete metadata records can negatively impact downstream dissemination workflows, and thus reduces the discoverability, reusability, and credibility of your presses’ valuable contributions to the scholarly record content.
