Abstract

This toolkit is designed for the Chinese Mathematics Digital Library (CMDL) System of Tsinghua University. The aim of CMDL is to preserve digitalized Chinese Mathematics ancient books available and provide mathematics research and education service to the public. This toolkit fulfills the cataloging and preservation functions of CMDL. METS encoded documents are used as the final storage format of metadata, including descriptive metadata, structural metadata and administrative metadata. The final XML documents with original digital resources can be packaged into an electronic book record extended from OEB, and submitted to a management system based on Fedora Open Source System. This software is a pure-Java application for platform-portable consideration, and JAXB is used to process XML for its convenient and powerful performance at XML processing.
