Report of Working Group, October 2002

Summary of activity

The Work Plan for the Group proposed:

the development of a DC-based application profile suitable for the collection-level description of a wide range of collections;
the development of appropriate schemas to support the encoding of instances, in accordance with the conventions endorsed by other DCMI Recommendations;
the creation of appropriate usage guidelines for the schema;
a list of recommended values for the dc:type property when applied to the description of collections
a set of crosswalks for mapping between this collection description schema and some major domain-specific standards and schema used for collection-level description (e.g. ISAD(G), EAD, MARC21).

At the end of February 2002, the co-chairs posted a proposal that this Working Group might examine the properties/attributes used to describe a collection in the RSLP Collection Description schema,
