摘要
The Dublin Core Metadata Workshop Series began in 1995 with an invitational workshop intended to bring together librarians, digital library researchers, content experts, and text-markup experts to promote better description standards for electronic resources. The Dublin Core is a 15-element set of descriptors that has emerged from this effort in interdisciplinary and international consensus building. This paper summarizes the state of the ongoing Dublin Core effort as of January 1997. It describes the design goals that motivate the Dublin Core, summarizes the results of each of the workshops held thus far, provides brief descriptions of pilot projects that use the Dublin Core, and points to anticipated future developments. © Springer-Verlag 1997.
