Archival description in edit mode: all information areas collapsed

DCB includes a template for describing resources using the the unqualified Dublin Core Metadata Element Set, Version 1.1. This section describes how to create, edit and delete descriptions using the Dublin Core template. The Data entry pages listed below give detailed notes and explanations on every field included on the edit screen; where there is a one-to-one correspondence between a Dublin Core data element and a DCB field, the note typically just gives the Dublin Core rule verbatim.
