ABSTRACT

Introduction:Digital preservation in Web archiving will only be possible with the effective use of metadata standards. These standards are the ones that determine the persistence, consistency, comprehensibility, the access,and representation of selected sites, collected and stored in Web archives, besides defining the archivability of sites and the interoperability among systems. Objective:In this context, the objective of the article was to identify and define which metadata standards could be judged by memory institutions and universities so that they could enable digital preservation in Web archives.Methodology:For this, a qualitative, exploratory,and descriptive research was done, using the bibliographic method from a non-systematic inventory together with a review and analysis of the literature content. The Dublin Core, MODS, EAD, VRA Core, PREMIS, and METS standards were selected and analyzed. Results and Conclusion:The analysis of the results indicates that Dublin Core, MODS, EAD, and VRA Core supported METS and PREMIS in detecting and documenting technical aspects of sites and proving their authenticity, context, and origin. METS can manage archived sites by acting as OAIS information packages, while Dublin Core proved to be an exponent for Web archiving through its use in remarkable area initiatives
