This chapter investigates the systems and models being used by cultural organisations in Turkey for describing cultural heritage resources online. In this regard, the research focuses on the issues of best practices for managing, mapping, integrating, and publishing cultural heritage objects online, current issues and possible solutions for digital content management, and metadata systems of cultural heritage resources. The research focuses on the metadata tags, standards, and practices, describing the condition for interoperability while at the same time maximizing the effective use of the resources, national and international systems and platforms, by creating new opportunities for interoperability and development of digital content management, and metadata mapping policies.
