The Dublin Core Terms Namespace providing access to its content by means of an RDF Schema.
The Dublin Core Metadata Initiative
The Dublin Core Terms namespace provides URIs for the Dublin Core Element Set Qualifier Vocabulary. Vocabulary terms are declared using RDF Schema language to support RDF applications. The Dublin Core qualifiers form a richer vocabulary, which is intended to facilitate discovery of resources. It will be updated according to dc-usage decisions.

Note that elements have a descriptive name intended to convey a common semantic understanding of the element. To promote global interoperability, a number of the element descriptions may be associated with a controlled vocabulary for the respective element values. It is assumed that other controlled vocabularies will be developed for interoperability within certain local domains. In the element descriptions below, a formal single-word label (expressed in all upper case) is specified to make the syntactic specification of elements simpler for encoding schemes. Each element is optional and repeatable.rce="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/date"/>
