Thanks for that plug for the METS Primer, Elizabeth.
Speaking for the Editorial Board, we don't have any plans at the moment for
further METS training in the US at a face to face event, but could certainly
consider it for the Fall DLF Forum for instance or some other event if there
is interest. We are planning to produce some online training tools in the
near future, but don't have plans solidified enough to give you much of an
idea of what or when those would be available. Thanks for your interest
though - it's inspirational or at least motivational!

In lieu of training, the METS Primer (1) is a great resource. If you're
interested in working in XML directly, I recommend the oXygen
(oxygenxml.com) editor.
(1) A link to the long PDF of the METS Primer is on this page:

Good luck!

Subject: [METS] METS training?
I'm interested in getting some in-depth METS training.
Does anyone know if there are any plans to offer some METS training in the
U.S. anytime soon?
Thanks,
