The Dublin Core metadata terms are a set of vocabulary terms which can be used to describe resources for the purposes of discovery.

The full set of Dublin Core metadata terms can be found on the Dublin Core Metadata Initiative ( DCMI ) website.

The original set of 15 classic metadata terms, known as the Dublin Core Metadata Element Set are endorsed in the following standards documents:

Dublin Core Metadata can be used for multiple purposes, from simple resource description, to combining metadata vocabularies of different metadata standards, to providing interoperability for metadata vocabularies in the Linked data cloud and Semantic web implementations.

The semantics of Dublin Core were established and are maintained by an international, cross-disciplinary group of professionals from librarianship, computer science, text encoding, museums, and other related fields of scholarship and practice.

The Dublin Core Metadata Initiative ( DCMI ) incorporated as an independent entity, separating from OCLC, in 2008 that provides an open forum for the development of interoperable online metadata standards for a broad range of purposes and of business models.

Simple Dublin Core comprises 15 elements ; Qualified Dublin Core includes three additional elements ;— Audience, Provenance and RightsHolder ;— as well as a group of element refinements, also called qualifiers, that refine the semantics of the elements in ways that may be useful in resource discovery.

The Simple Dublin Core Metadata Element Set ( DCMES ) consists of 15 metadata elements:

Each Dublin Core element is optional and may be repeated.

There is no prescribed order in Dublin Core for presenting or using the elements.

The Dublin Core became ISO 15836 standard in 2006 and is used as a base-level data element set for the description of learning resources in the ISO / IEC 19788-2 Metadata for learning resources ( MLR ) -- Part 2: Dublin Core elements, prepared by the ISO / IEC JTC1 SC36.

Full information on element definitions and term relationships can be found in the Dublin Core Metadata Registry.

Subsequent to the specification of the original 15 elements, an ongoing process to develop exemplary terms extending or refining the Dublin Core Metadata Element Set ( DCMES ) was begun.

The additional terms were identified, generally in working groups of the Dublin Core Metadata Initiative, and judged by the DCMI Usage Board to be in conformance with principles of good practice for the qualification of Dublin Core metadata elements.
