The Crossref Metadata Deposit Schema is a schema designed to enforce a standardized metadata format on research content stored within Crossref. This schema supports a range of different content types and categories, including descriptive (bibliographic), administrative and structural. It follows the ISO/IEC 11179 Metadata Registry (MDR) standard, which specifies a schema for recording both the meaning and technical structure of the data for unambiguous usage by humans and computers.
