Exercise 5: Wrangle Your Metadata

Title

Exercise 5: Wrangle Your Metadata

Description

In the Exercise spreadsheet attached, you have a survey of angel images from BL Add. 42555. The spreadsheet contains several fields describing the images: Description by BL (from the British Library's catalogue), as well as Angel Hair, Angel Wings, Angel Halo, and Angel Accessories (descriptions of the specific angel figures). You want to place all this information elegantly in the Dublin Core description field. Use Excel (or your spreadsheet program of choice) to build the content of a new field, named DC:Description, that contains all this new content. Feel free to format this new field with HTML tags. Then save your spreadsheet once again as a csv file and import it into your site. See the Solution spreadsheet for guidance.
