== Dublin Core Collection Description Application Profile ==

The primary focus of the working group is the development of the [http://dublincore.org/groups/collections/collection-application-profile/ Dublin Core Collection Description Application Profile] (DC CD AP) and documents in this work area are created to support that activity.

The DC CD AP is a specification of how terms from the Dublin Core metadata vocabularies (together with terms from other vocabularies) are used to construct a description of a collection.
