In 2007, this team of researchers secured a three-year IMLS grant to develop strategies to combat the issue of exclusion. This project consisted of three overlapping phases: "a logic-based framework of collection/item metadata relationships that classifies metadata into categories with associated rules for propagating or constraining information between collection and item levels; empirical studies to see if our conjectured taxonomy matches the understanding and behavior of metadata creators, metadata specification designers, and registry users; and, pilot applications using the relationship rules to support searching, browsing, and navigation of the DCC Registry." At the time of writing, three kinds of metadata relationships had been defined: attribute/value-propagation, value-propagation, and value-constraint. This article concludes with the team{\textquoteright}s suggestions for future research. },
