Describing Serials in Dublin Core

The Open Language Archives Community (OLAC) metadata profile is built on Dublin Core and OAI. Essentially OLAC feeds (to the OLAC aggregator) are modified OAI-PMH feeds. The profile was originally assumed to be describing archived language resources. However, there is a portion of the OLAC schema which allows the describer of a resource to indicate that the resource is a description of the resource rather than a language resource. This is useful for describing things like grammars and journal articles.

My question is: How might journal articles be best described?

There are at least “archives” pushing journal articles to OLAC: the University of Hawaiʻi. pushes all of the journal Language Documentation & Conservation to OLAC (but does not use ISO 639-3 codes in the records); the SIL Language & Culture Archive has records for many journal articles published by SIL and others. The GIAL/DIU library also has pushed records for journal articles or serials.

Records from these three entites can serve as a baseline for current practice. However, how should journal articles, or even whole journals be described in Dublin Core? To this end I have started looking at the literature discussing how journal articles are described in the library science journals. The following bibliography is a compliation of the works consulted so far.
