The bibliocoverage element satisfies coverage
element of the Dublin Core
Metadata Initiative.
The Dublin Core defines coverage as “the extent or scope of the content of the resource.” It goes on to say:
Coverage will typically include spatial location (a place name or geographic coordinates), temporal period (a period label, date, or date range) or jurisdiction (such as a named administrative entity).
Recommended best practice is to select a value from a controlled vocabulary (for example, the Thesaurus of Geographic Names [TGN]) and that, where appropriate, named places or time periods be used in preference to numeric identifiers such as sets of coordinates or date ranges.
DocBook 4.2 added bibliocoverage,
bibliorelation, and
bibliosource to make the DocBook meta-information wrappers
a complete superset of the Dublin Core.
Formatted inline. Sometimes suppressed.
This element is used for both spatial and temporal coverage, but the intent
is that only one is specified at a time. In other words, on any given instance
of the bibliocoverage element, specify either
a spatial or a
temporal encoding, but not both.
These elements contain bibliocoverage:
appendixinfo, articleinfo, biblioentry, bibliographyinfo, bibliomixed, bibliomset, biblioset, blockinfo, bookinfo, chapterinfo, glossaryinfo, indexinfo, objectinfo, partinfo, prefaceinfo, refentryinfo, referenceinfo, refsect1info, refsect2info, refsect3info, refsectioninfo, refsynopsisdivinfo, sect1info, sect2info, sect3info, sect4info, sect5info, sectioninfo, setindexinfo, setinfo, sidebarinfo.
The following elements occur in bibliocoverage:
emphasis, indexterm, inlinegraphic, inlinemediaobject, link, olink, remark, replaceable, subscript, superscript, trademark, ulink.
Identifies the encoding scheme for the supplied spatial identifier. See the Dublin Core Qualifiers for details about the meaning of each encoding.
Used to identify the encoding scheme when
spatial is set to
otherspatial.
Identifies the encoding scheme for the supplied temporal identifier. See the Dublin Core Qualifiers for details about the meaning of each encoding.
Used to identify the encoding scheme when
temporal is set to
othertemporal.
