AbstractThis study reviews existing practice for providing collection level descriptions, as it exists in the library, archival, museum and Internet communities. 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 internet. Finally, a detailed look is taken at some of the existing schemes that are used for collection and service description.
