Abstract
This paper is the summing-up of the study on descriptive metadata for variant resource objects in a national project Chinese Digital Library Standards (CDLS). In this study, the two key issues, metadata structure and extended rules, are focused on while designing the metadata standards aiming at the different objects and their characteristics. They will enhance the interoperability among the metadata standards. This paper takes the metadata standard of ancient atlases as an example to illustrates its structure, elements and extended rules.
