DIN EN ISO/IEC 19788-2:2013-03

The primary purpose of the international standards ISO/IEC 19788 is to specify metadata elements and their attributes for the description of learning resources. This includes the rules governing the identification of data elements and the specification of their attributes. This part of ISO/IEC 19788 provides a base-level data element set for the description of learning resources, from the ISO 15836:2009 Dublin Core metadata element set, using the framework provided in ISO/IEC 19788-1. The adoption of the International Standard as a European Standard will propagate a common norm in place of uneven national standards for learning resources metadata. Thus, EN ISO/IEC 19788-2 ensures better interoperability between learning resources and learning opportunities.
