VALEP uses a relational database as well as parsing tools that enable a restrictive use of certain special metadata. A persons, for example, can be identified as the author of a document, only if the person is already stored in VALEPs table of persons. A date is only accepted by VALEP if it is specified in accordance to the socalled EDTF format. On the other hand, (almost) all free text metadata categories enable the usage of the whole range of UNICODE symbols in VALEP, e.g. Hong Qian can be alternatively spelled as 洪谦.
