 ## Changelog
 
+### Overview
+
+There are two Changelogs for this repository:
+
+- `CHANGELOG.md` is intended for users of the collector and lists changes that affect the behavior of the collector.
+- `CHANGELOG-API.md` is intended for developers who are importing packages from the collector codebase.
+
+### When to add a Changelog Entry
+
 Pull requests that contain user-facing changes will require a changelog entry. Keep in mind the following types of users:
 1. Those who are consuming the telemetry exported from the collector
 2. Those who are deploying or otherwise managing the collector or its configuration
 3. Those who are depending on APIs exported from collector packages
 4. Those who are contributing to the repository
 
-The changelog is primarily directed at the first three groups but it is sometimes appropriate to include important updates relevant only to the forth group.
+Changes that affect the first two groups should be noted in `CHANGELOG.md`. Changes that affect the third or forth groups should be noted in `CHANGELOG-API.md`.
 
 If a changelog entry is not required, a maintainer or approver will add the `Skip Changelog` label to the pull request.
