The Dublin Core [DC1] is a small set of metadata elements fordescribing information resources. This document explains how theseelements are expressed using the META and LINK tags of HTML[HTML4.0]. A sequence of metadata elements embedded in an HTML fileis taken to be a description of that file. Examples illustrateconventions allowing interoperation with current software thatindexes, displays, and manipulates metadata, such as [SWISH-E],[freeWAIS-sf2.0], [GLIMPSE], [HARVEST], [ISEARCH], etc., and the Perl[PERL] scripts in the appendix.
