7train METS Generation Tool

7train is an XSLT 2.0-based tool for generating Metadata and Encoding Transmission Standard (METS) files from standardized XML inputs.

Version 1 of the tool was designed to transform CONTENTdm Version 4.0 Standard XML exports into METS files conforming to a specific METS profile - http://www.loc.gov/mets/profiles/00000010.xml.  However, the tool can be customized to produce METS files from any kind of standardized XML document (e.g, OAI records, etc.).

The 7train transformation process was designed by Paul Fogel and Erik Hetzner at the California Digital Library (CDL) and is copyright the University of California Regents.
