VoID is an RDF Schema vocabulary for expressing metadata about RDF
datasets. It is intended as a bridge between the publishers and
users of RDF data, with applications ranging from data discovery to
cataloging and archiving of datasets. This document is a detailed
guide to the VoID vocabulary. It describes how VoID can be used to
express general metadata based on Dublin Core, access metadata,
structural metadata, and links between datasets. It also provides
deployment advice and discusses the discovery of VoID descriptions.

<p>
This document is work in progress towards a revision of the RDF Concepts and Abstract Syntax Recommendation, and is intended to eventually replace that document. It is part of a larger effort to revise the RDF specifications as published in 2004. The most significant changes from the 2004 edition are: modified string literals, a section on skolemization of blank nodes, and many updated references to other specifications (including a change in terminology from “URI references” to “IRIs”). A fuller list of changes that have been made to date is provided in Appendix A. Various areas of work to be tackled in upcoming working drafts are highlighted throughout the document, but should not yet be understood as an exhaustive list.
