Adding Metadata

Please add the following metadata as a minimum, and more where appropriate your product type. The fields are listed below according to the section they appear in. 

Basisdaten (Basic data)

Mediennummer (Media Number) 
The format of the media number is not relevant for our systems. However, if you sell media to media centers, you should use the central signature assignment's media number. If the FWU (the operator of the "Educational Media Database") permits, you will be able to load the entire dataset with one click in the future. However, this is still undecided. We have therefore only adopted the data for the old media. All producers or publishers not bound to the central signature assignment can fill in the media number and all other data fields at their discretion.
