Description: (“Definition” is missing, please add it.)

Notes: Audubon Core: Description of collection or individual resource, containing the Who, What, When, Where and Why as free-form text. This normative document is silent on the nature of formatting in the text. It is the role of implementers of an AC concrete representation (e.g. an XML Schema, an RDF representation, etc.) to decide and document how formatting advice will be represented in Descriptions serialized according to such representations.

It optionally allows to present detailed information and will in most cases be shown together with the resource title. If both description and caption (see below) are present, a description is typically displayed instead of the resource, a caption together with the resource.

Should be a good proxy for the underlying media resource.
