A working group of the IFLA Cataloguing Section has produced a draft report Guidance on the structure, Content, and Application of Metadata Records for Digital Resources and Collections. The report contains a suggested "core" set of the ten elements most commonly occurring in a range of metadata schemas that could be used by authors or publishers to enhance resource discovery.

IFLA has now put out an official call for a World-Wide Review of this report.
