It begins by providing a discussion on what the term 'collection' means, firstly from the perspective of libraries, museums and archives and then taking a look at the more recent meaning of the term as it is used on the World Wide Web. Finally, a detailed look is taken at some of the existing schemes that are used for collection and service description. This study was written over a fairly long period of time (1998/99), using contributions from a number of different authors. It was initially published on the Web in August 1999. It is therefore worth noting that some of the references in this study to events that will happen in the future may now have taken place.
