期刊在學術傳播的生態中,具有預測學科未來發展、主題趨勢與記錄典範轉移的功能,對於學術圖書館而言,可說是館藏中最為重要的資訊資源。因此,如何兼顧紙本與電子期刊,並將其妥善地組織與整理是當前學術圖書館十分重要的任務。本文針對MARC、MARCXML、Dublin Core及MODS幾種常見的後設資料,探討其優缺點,並實際以電子期刊為例,分別採用上述後設資料加以描述並分析比較其間的差異,以了解後設資料用於組織期刊的概況。Scholarly journal takes crucial part in predicting growth of discipline,evelopment of subjects and recording paradigm shift in academic community.
