Data about data. For example, a FileAllocationTable is MetaData. The 'control' file in a [DebianLinux] .[Deb] is MetaData. The Journal in a [JournaledFileSystem|JournaledFileSystems] is MetaData and it is though the cunning using of this MetaData that such FileSystems get their edge. In the field of Information Retrieval, MetaData refers to data about a document. For example, the Title, Author, Date, etc are all MetaData about the actual document. Bibliographic records help look-up based on MetaData. Standards for this kind of MetaData include [MARC] and Dublin Core.
