The preservation of digital objects is a topic of prominent importance for archives and digital libraries. However the creation and maintenance of metadata is a laborious task that does not always pay off immediately. For this reason there is a need for tools that automate as much as possible the creation and curation of preservation metadata. Such an automation is important especially for emergent systems and structures, like file systems, which are much more complex and dynamic, in comparison to the traditional digital archives. In this paper we propose a semi-automatic approach that binds in a flexible manner (a) automatically extracted embedded metadata, (b) manually provided metadata, and (c) dependency management services. In addition we elaborate on the problem of keeping the metadata repository up-to-date. Finally, we report our experiences from developing and using such a system based on Semantic Web technologies.
