ANSI/NISO Z39.85 - 2001 Dublin Core Metadata Element Set
The Dublin Core Metadata standard was developed to promote better discovery standards for electronic resources and to make it easier to find relevant information on the World Wide Web. It is a 15-element set of descriptors in three groups which roughly indicate the class or scope of information stored in them. Firstly, content: title, subject, description, type, source, relation and coverage; secondly, intellectual property: creator, publisher, contributor and rights; and finally, instantiation: date, format, identifier and language.

Dublin Core and Warwick Framework: A Review of the Literature, March 1995 - September 1997
Identifies and explores the dynamics of the literature associated with the Dublin Core Workshop Series. Concludes that a shift from a descriptive emphasis to a more empirical form of literature is about to take place and identifies future research questions in the areas of satisfying searcher needs, the impact of surrogate descriptions on search engine performance, and the effectiveness of surrogate descriptions in authenticating Internet resources.

Dublin Core Element Set Version 1.1
Reference description of version 1.1 of the Dublin Core Metadata Element Set, summarising updated definitions which use a formal standard to improve the consistency with other metadata communities.

     DeweyClass: 025.344
     Resource type: reference document
Dublin Core in Multiple Languages: Esperanto, Interlingua, or Pidgin?
Article proposing that Dublin Core metadata requires a set of elements common to every language. It is suggested that technical terms with no exact translation equivalents in different languages could be explained with a phrase, or new terms could be defined.

     Subjects: dublin core, esperanto, linguistics

Dublin Core Metadata
The Dublin Core is a 15-element metadata set intended to facilitate discovery of electronic resources. Originally conceived for author-generated description of Web resources, it has also attracted the attention of formal resource description communities such as museums and libraries.

Metadata Made Simpler
This introduction to metadata helps to explain what metadata is all about, why it is needed, and the advantages it offers. Dublin Core, GILS, metadata creation, and mapping are covered, and a list of Web resources and a glossary are included. Available in PDF only.

Metadata Resources: Dublin Core
Resources about the Dublin Metadata Core Element Set, a simple information resource description which also aims to provide a basis for semantic interoperability between other, probably more complicated, formats and is also intended to provide the basis for resource embedded description, initially with HTML documents.
