A range of descriptive elements making it easy to construct a Element Set description of the content and copyright of HTML publications. The aim is to qualify searches on the Internet. Dublin Core is often abbreviated to DC. Please see "metadata".

The Dublin Core is a 15-element metadata element set i ntended to facilitate discovery of electronic resources. The Dublin Core has been in development since 1995 through a series of focused invitational workshops that gather experts from the library world, the networking and digital library research communities, and a variety of content specialties. See Section 1 of this guide or the Dublin Core Web Site.

An initially agreed set of 13 elements of meta data that should be present in the cataloging of electronic information, also the cross-sector conference that was held to discuss indexing and description of electronic resources for successful retrieval.

The Dublin Metadata Core Element Set is a set of 13 metadata elements. These metadata elements facilitate the discovery of document-like objects in a networked environment such as the Internet.

Dublin Core Metadata Element Set (Dublin Core Metadata Initiative): http://dublincore.org/. A standard set of 15 elements (title, creator, subject, etc.), with optional qualifiers and community-specific extensions. All elements are optional and repeatable within an application profile used to structure data elements into records customized for specific audiences. Dublin Core is used to structure descriptive information about a resource but also to map readily to other descriptive schema, to facilitate sharing information across different metadata schemas and user communities. First developed in the mid-1990s, and originally intended for use in describing web sites and web pages, Dublin Core is now used also for describing physical and digital collections in museums, libraries, archives and other repositories.

Dublin Core is a metadata element set intended to facilitate discovery of electronic resources. Originally conceived for author-generated description of Web resources, it has attracted attention from a variety of resource-description communities, including museums, libraries, and government agencies. Named for the site of a 198? international conference held at Dublin, Ohio.

The Dublin Core defines fifteen metadata elements to describe resources of various kinds in a cross-disciplinary information environment. These elements are: title, subject, description, source, language, relation, coverage, creator, publisher, contributor, rights, date, type, format, and identifier. A project of the OCLC Office for Research.

The Dublin Core Metadata Element Set is a set of 15 descriptive semantic definitions. It represents a core set of elements likely to be useful across a broad range of vertical industries and disciplines of study. The Dublin Core Metadata Element Set was created to provide a core set of elements that could be shared across disciplines or within any type of organization needing to organize and classify information.

The Dublin Core Metadata Initiative is an open forum engaged in the development of interoperable online metadata standards that support a broad range of purposes and business models. The DC Metadata Element Set is the most widely accepted metadata standard for the WWW, and may be found at http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/. It is the basis for the I3N Cataloguer's record structure.

One of the supported NSDL metadata standards (for more information, see http://metamanagement.comm.nsdl.org/outline.html.) The original workshop for the Initiative was held in Dublin, Ohio in 1995. Hence the term "Dublin Core" in the name of the Initiative.

This standard has 15 fields that can be used to describe any kind of digital artifact, in this case an archived web page.

A proposed set of standard descriptive metadata elements used with web resources to aid in resource discovery. The elements are intended as a starting point for resource description. The elements are optional, and are intended to be extensible to richer descriptive elements when needed. The 15 elements are: title author/creator subject/keywords description publisher other contributor date resource type format resource identifier source language relation coverage rights management See the Dublin Core Homepage for further information.

Dublin Core Metadata Element Set (Dublin Core Metadata Initiative): A standard set of about 15 elements (title, creator, subject, etc.), with optional qualifiers, used to structure descriptive records and facilitate information sharing. Originally intended for use in describing Web-based resources, it is now used also for describing physical collections in museums, libraries, archives, and other repositories. Developed in the mid-1990s.

A minimal set of metadata elements that creators or catalogers can assign to information resources, regardless of the form of those resources, which can then be used for network resource discovery, especially on the World Wide Web.

a metadata format being discussed internationally to define a minimal information resource description for use in a WWW environment. The term "Dublin" is used as Dublin, Ohio is the location of OCLC's headquarters.

The outcome of a workshop held in 1995 by OCLC and the National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA) at which the participants explored simpler ways of describing the wide variety of resources held by various organizations including libraries, museums, archives, governments and publishers. Participants proposed a core set of metadata elements for describing Web-based resources for easier search and retrieval. The resulting Dublin Core is a 15-element set intended to emphasize retrieval, as described above, rather than description. It facilitates discovery of electronic resources and enables interoperability between metadata repositories. http://dublincore.org

Dublin Core Dublin Core Metadata Element Set consists of 15 descriptive data elements relating to content, intellectual property and instantiation. The elements are title, creator, publisher, subject, description, source, language, relation, coverage, date, type, format, identifier, contributor and rights. They are to be supplied by the producer of the resource. The Warwick Framework set out a conceptual approach to implementing the Dublin Core, one of which is embedding the data in an HTML document using the META tag. DC is being widely discussed and there is a growing corpus of implementation projects in over 10 countries. There is a Dublin Core-USMARC mapping.

Dublin Core (DC) is a metadata schema maintained by the Dublin Core Metadata Initiative (DCMI). The Dublin Core Metadata Element Set (DCMES) contains fifteen elements for simple resource description and discovery. Designed to be flexible and simple, DC's elements are all optional and repeatable. DC has been extended with further optional elements, element qualifiers and vocabulary terms. See http://www.dublincore.org/.

The Dublin Core metadata element set is a standard for cross-domain information resource description. In other words, it provides a simple and standardised set of conventions for describing things online in ways that make them easier to find. Dublin Core is widely used to describe digital materials such as video, sound, image, text, and composite media like web pages.
