Plan:
The main goal today is to create metadata templates for the individual tables and photographs within the issues. These will be submitted as part of the issue/article in which they appear, but also individually due to their unique content. If I have time, I also plan to create another set of practice records based on the changes from last week's meeting.
I will also looking at OAIster to see what metadata fields it harvests and makes available. Knowing this will allow us to place important information into metadata fields which will be harvested by OAIster.
Accomplishments:
I have created metadata template drafts for the individual tables and photographs. I plan to send them out for review shortly. There is some information that I am have a difficult time deciding on the appropriate element. I am hoping the feed back I get, after sharing them, will help.
I did find some useful information about OAIster and did some comparison between records in DSpace and how they were represented in the OAIster records. The information I found on OAIster can be found HERE. Note that this is not an exhaustive list of mappings, but it is a list of the DSpace to OAIster mappings I was able to confirm.
I have also begun creating practice records based on the revised template, though I ave only finished one. I plan to complete the remainder of the practice records next week.
Questons:
- Names - Should we always use initials for first and middle or use full names when known?
- Charts with drawing of Indiana - Table or Picture template?
- Date issued - Isn't it issued after the completion of the month?
- Table of contents - How specific/detailed?
