            Abstract : 
Educational metadata can significantly assist the effective retrieval of educational resources. Currently, there are a number of tools for educational metadata authoring, facilitating the manipulation of educational metadata files. We outline the requirements, and propose an architecture for the development of a compete LRM management system which go beyond metadata authoring, supporting the educational community in the full management of LRM through the management of interoperable learning object repositories.
