| How to Use | Describe the file format of the resource using the Internet Media Type (MIME) scheme. Some examples: audio/mp4 image/jp2 application/pdf Some digital objects may involve more than one format. For example, an oral history interview may consist of both an audio file (audio/mp4) and text transcription (application/pdf). In these cases, list both formats (audio/mp4; application/pdf;). Optionally, collection managers may describe file size and/or duration using the more refined dcterms:extent field. |
