Abstract:
This paper introduces the concept of deficiencies in html and advocates that xml can be a
substitute of html for its advantages. Being the web standard, it also accomplishes its
application to the library documents as a metatag descriptor. The paper explains this through an example of XML, DTD, CSS, HTML files with few catalogue fields as descriptors. It also focuses on the various recommendations brought by RDF and Dublin Core in the development of metadata.
