OAI Dublin Core MetaData Scoping

Link: http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/

A 'simpler' scheme in HIVE for inputting metadata as it uses only 15 elements with no sub divisional elements.

May be worth pursuing - the following useful elements exist:

1.0 Title Automatically populate field with "Item's Title" in HIVE
2.0 Creator
3.0 Subject and Keywords
4.0 Description Automatically populate field with "Item's Description" in HIVE
5.0 Publisher Automatically populate field with "BEGIN:VCARD\nFN:Name of Item's Author\nEND:VCARD" in HIVE
6.0 Contributor
7.0 Date Automatically populate field with "Item's Date of Publication" in HIVE
8.0 Resource Type
9.0 Format Automatically populate field with "Item's MIME type" in HIVE
10.0 Resource Identifier Automatically populate field with "Quick Fetch Link to Item" in HIVE
11.0 Source
12.0 Language Automatically populate field with "Item's Content Language" in HIVE
13.0 Relation
14.0 Coverage
15.0 Rights Management
