An approach to mapping CCF to Dublin Core Available to Purchase

This paper seeks to describe efforts in the area of converting bibliographic records into Dublin Core from the Common Communication Format.

The paper provides examples of two mappings, one for unqualified Dublin Core metadata elements, and the other for qualified Dublin Core metadata elements.

Some difficulties may occur during the conversion of bibliographic records, and these difficulties are stated along with possible solutions.

The paper provides a methodology which would enable an algorithm to be developed for converting CCF‐based bibliographic records into Dublin Core metadata elements.
