A resource from which the item you are creating metadata for is derived.
Questions to Ask When Determining Source
- Is the resource I am creating metadata for based on another resource? Would the resource I am creating metadata for exist without that other resource?
Source Examples

- If you were creating metadata for a newspaper article, the source could be the original, whole, newspaper
