The ISLE Meta Data Initiative (IMDI) is a metadata standard to describe multi-media and multi-modal language resources. The standard provides interoperability for browsable and searchable corpus structures and resource descriptions. The full specifications can be found in the documents below.

**Note that TLA no longer uses IMDI metadata for the archive, but a selected number of CMDI metadata profiles instead** , see [https://archive.mpi.nl/tla/accepted-metadata](https://archive.mpi.nl/tla/accepted-metadata)
