Guidelines
for Usage |
Actual
types of Program Related Text are identified in the element LANGUAGE.USAGE.
The element DESCRIPTION.PROGRAMRELATEDTEXT contains
either the actual text (if of limited length) or indicates a
separate, distinct,
related file containing that text or a separate audio track.
Many Digital Asset Management Systems will associate files
that are cataloged separately, but related to an item.
Use the element RELATION.TYPE and RELATION.IDENTIFIER
to refer to the presence and identification of these other related
formats and forms
of the primary audio presentation for a resource.
Use the element LANGUAGE to identify the
language represented in alternative audio.

- A transcript may exist as a text document.

a text document or (b) an electronic file with timecode synchronization

NOTE: Including transcript-related content
in DESCRIPTION.PROGRAMRELATEDTEXT is not intended to interfere
with related businesses who sell transcripts for
finished programs. If such for-sale-transcripts are available,
the PBCore may or may not refer to that source and will not
provide the same content as a
uniquely catalogued asset. |
