This report focuses on the metadata as a specific type of research data in the humanities by analysing key metadata elements – persistent identifiers (PIDs), abstracts, keywords and citations. It defines those elements, outlines challenges for processing them in the humanities and presents the challenges for GoTriple as the metadata aggregator of this kind of research data. The assumption is that GoTriple is a specific kind of research dataset on its own that can and will be reused by stakeholders such as other metadata aggregators, indexers, publishers, information services (i.e. providers of scholarly metrics), but also scientists interested in data-driven research (cultural analytics, scientometrics, bibliometrics, etc.). This demands a good understanding of key metadata elements important to GoTriple's aggregation and enrichment processes (abstracts, keywords) and their development (PIDs, citations).
