We are in the process of setting up Dublin Core on our site. It has
some 10,000 plus documents coveraing a wide range of environmental
subjects.
We have examined the "Resource Types" at
http://www.roads.lut.ac.uk/Metadata/DC-ObjectTypes.html
and would like to suggest a few additions:
Fact Sheet
We have many documents that are one-page fact sheets about a
particular topical issue. They do not really fit into any pf
the other categories
Media Release
Being a Government Department, we get many Media and Press
Releases that are similtaneously released on the Web.
Project Info
We (and I notice a lot of other sites) have information on
Projects or Programs. At a very large stretch it could fit
under Organisation Info, however, we believe it is better
listed under a separate heading.
I am not sure of the process of getting these added to the main list
other than going via this listerver.
regards
arthur
