ISO 15836-2:2019 (DCMI Terms)

2019, a second
In 2019, a second part of the Dublin Core ISO standard was published. ISO 15836-2:2019 covers the dozens of new properties and classes added to DCMI namespaces since 1999 (beyond the core 15 elements)dublincore.org. This includes elements like dct:abstract, dct:created, the DCMI Type Vocabulary, etc. Essentially, ISO 15836-2 formalized the broader DCMI Metadata Terms as an international standard, with DCMI’s Usage Board serving as the maintenance agency. This was a significant expansion of Dublin Core’s standardized footprint, acknowledging the maturity of the extended vocabulary.
