PBCore v1.1 Namespace
for the
Public Broadcasting Metadata Dictionary

This web page serves as a unique reference to the Public Broadcasting Metadata Dictionary PBCore v1.1 Namespace (for background, see PBCore Namespace Context). The specifications for the 53 metadata elements, organized in 15 element containers and 3 sub-containers, all grouped under 4 content classes, are identified and defined in the various pages and narratives found throughout the PBCore User Guide. Links to these resources are provided below.

Full documentation for each PBCore metadata element can be obtained on an item-by-item by selecting a Content Class, Container, Sub-container, or actual Element from the index to the left.

If you are looking for a one-page quick reference for the definitions of each element and some data examples, use the Cheat Sheet.
