Notes

This data element specifies a valid rights notice or licence for the metadata record. This indicates the extent to which the object information may be used. If you are planning to submit data to the German Digital Library, object metadata is generally made available under the CC0 1.0 Universal Public Domain Dedication rights notice.

If the object description text is subject to intellectual property rights, the corresponding legal status should be indicated in a separate data field (in LIDO: <lido:objectDescriptionRights>, from LIDO v.1.1) (see also Object description).
