1428<hr>
1429<h2 id="mission-and-principles">Mission and Principles</h2>
1430<p>The Dublin Core™ Metadata Initiative (DCMI) supports shared innovation in metadata design and best practices across a broad range of purposes and business models.</p>
1431<p>DCMI does this by:</p>
1432<ul>
1433<li>Managing long term curation and development of <a href="/specifications/">specifications and metadata terms namespaces</a>;</li>
1434<li>Running an annual <a href="/conferences/">international conference</a>;</li>
1435<li>Curation and open availability of meeting assets including <a href="http://dcpapers.dublincore.org/pubs">proceedings, project reports</a> and meeting minutes;</li>
1436<li>Creation and delivery of <a href="/themes/learning/">training resources in metadata best practices</a> including tutorials, webinars and workshops; and</li>
1437<li>Coordinating the global <a href="/themes/community/">community of DCMI volunteers</a>.</li>
1438</ul>
1439<p>DCMI's principles of operation are:</p>
1440<ul>
1441<li>
1442<p><strong>Open consensus building:</strong> Participation<br>
1443in the <a href="/themes/community/">DCMI community</a> is open to all interested groups or individuals with expertise or interests in metadata. DCMI de facto standards, specifications and best practice documents reflect consensus arrived at through consultative debate and review. No fees are assessed for use of such information, inasmuch as the value of such materials is enhanced by their wide adoption.</p>
1444</li>
1445<li>
1446<p><strong>International scope and participation:</strong> DCMI arose in the 1990s from an informal workshop series that attracted participation of a world-wide community. DCMI has been committed from the start to global participation, as exemplified by a wide array of <a href="/resources/translations/">translations</a>, the location of <a href="/conferences/">Dublin Core™ conferences</a>, and the diversity of regional representation among the DCMI Members.</p>
1447</li>
1448<li>
1449<p><strong>Neutrality of purposes and business models:</strong> DCMI is neutral as to the purposes for which DCMI de facto metadata standards and specifications might be used. DCMI encourages the adoption of these standards and specifications in the public and private sectors and in further de jure standardization that does not jeopardize open access.</p>
1450</li>
1451<li>
1452<p><strong>Neutrality of technology:</strong> DCMI de facto standards are fundamentally concerned with semantics—the meaning of assertions about information resources. The technological infrastru
1452cture underpinning the encoding and expression of these semantics is expected to evolve with time. DCMI attempts to maintain independence of agreed-upon semantics, and to facilitate the expression of these semantics in encoding idioms appropriate to the active stakeholders of the initiative.</p>
1453</li>
1454<li>
1455<p><strong>Cross disciplinary focus:</strong> Since its early days in the mid-1990s, DCMI's founding principle has been the discovery and management of resources through metadata across the boundaries of information silos on the Web and within intranets.</p>
1456</li>
1457</ul>
1458<h2 id="web-site-policies-software-logo-banner">Web site, policies, software, logo, banner</h2>
1459<p>The Dublin Core Metadata Initiative Web Site (this site) is the major public entry point and formal repository for DCMI documentation, including current and past activities and meetings. The long-term persistence of DCMI materials on sites outside of the dublincore.org domain, such as Github repositories, cannot reasonably be guaranteed, so DCMI makes every effort to ensure that the most important deliverables of its work are captured on this site.</p>
1460<p>Starting in 2022, papers in <a href="https://dcpapers.dublincore.org/">dcpapers.dublincore.org</a>
1460 will be assigned DOIs.</p>
1461<p>DCMI seeks to attract the individuals and organizations worldwide interested in collaborating on metadata standards as well as the design and development of enabling metadata technologies. To this end, the DCMI has established the following policies.</p>
1462<ul>
1463<li><a href="/about/copyright/">Copyright Statement</a></li>
1464<li><a href="/about/privacy/">Privacy Statement</a></li>
1465</ul>
1466<p>The DCMI logo consists of a central sphere, representing the core of the Initiative. The inner surrounding spheres represent the original 15 core data elements available in the <a href="/specifications/dublin-core/dces/">DCMI Metadata Element Set</a> (ISO standard 15836). The outer spheres represent an interpreted and extended element set.</p>
