NSDL Metadata Repository Formats • NSDL native metadata: • Dublin Core • Dublin Core + Ed • LTSC (IMS) • ADL (SCORM) • MARC • CSDGM (FGDC) • GILS • EAD • Normalized metadata: qualified Dublin Core + audience MetadataRepository Stores native & normalized metadata in XML DLESE OAI April 29-30, 2002

NSDL’s Metadata Repository Drawings based on Cornell JCDL article Metadata Repository • Item: individual objects • Collection: static, editorially managed aggregation • Link/Aggregation: relationship records (collection/item collection/collection) Collection Metadata Link Metadata Link Metadata Item Metadata Item Metadata Collection DLESE OAI April 29-30, 2002
NSDL Item Metadata • See Handout: • Quick Table of NSDL Metadata Elements • Normalized: • Provide qualified DC content • Example of Qualified DC.Format: • DC.Format.Extent: 123,456 bytes • DC.Format.Medium: text/html DLESE OAI April 29-30, 2002
NSDL Collection Metadata • See Handout: • NSDL Collection Record Submission Form • Submit directly • Unqualified Dublin Core DLESE OAI April 29-30, 2002
Methods for Transporting Metadata Records via OAI • OAI-namespace Registered: • Uses unqualified DC as the metadata format • Metadata uses XML schemas (the OAI DC one) • Namespace identifier registered with OAI • Non-registered: • Use any metadata format • Metadata uses XML schemas (comment out DTD lines or don’t make validation references) • No OAI registration, but maybe registration with potential trading partners like DLESE DLESE OAI April 29-30, 2002
DLESE OAI Software • Transports metadata records in • Unqualified DC format • DLESE-IMS format • Any metadata format • Available on SourceForge as version 1.2 • Uses OAI Protocol version 1.1 DLESE OAI April 29-30, 2002
DLESE As Service Provider • DLESE-IMS: Harvest and discover now • Simple DC: Harvest now; discover in late Fall 2002 • Advantages of being harvested by DLESE: Allows collections to be discoverable without the collection provider having to create a local discovery system DLESE OAI April 29-30, 2002
Discovery in DLESE with Harvested DLESE-IMS Records • As a recognized (branded) collection: • Follows DLESE Collection Accession Policy • Additional search capabilities (by icon brand) • As individual records: (no icon brand): • Records are not part of a recognized collection • Still register collection name & label with DLESE • Collection must meet DLESE Scope Policy DLESE OAI April 29-30, 2002
DLESE as Data Provider • DLESE-IMS: Being provided now • Simple DC: Begin providing by fall 2002 perhaps summer 2002 DLESE OAI April 29-30, 2002
DLESE-IMS Metadata • Metadata record at: (see handout) • http://www.dlese.org/Metadata/records/DLESE-000-000-000-036.xml • Required metadata: (see handout) • http://www.dlese.org/Metadata/main/levels.htm • Can use the DCS (DLESE Catalog System) to create DLESE-IMS metadata records DLESE OAI April 29-30, 2002
Collection Developers as Data Providers to NSDL • Use DLESE OAI software v. 1.2 (uses OAI Protocol v. 1.1) • NSDL will be using OAI Protocol v. 2.0 June 1 • DLESE OAI software will be upgraded August 2002 to use OAI Protocol v. 2.0 • Contact to set a harvest schedule: • NSDL: Susan Jesuroga (jesuroga@ucar.edu) • DLESE: John Weatherly (jweather@ucar.edu) DLESE OAI April 29-30, 2002
Crosswalks to Dublin Core • DLESE: Crosswalk for DLESE-IMS to DC is under development using XSLT • NSDL: will help collection groups crosswalk their metadata to DC • You: Best if you map/crosswalk your own and we can discuss that now DLESE OAI April 29-30, 2002
Open Discussion Topics • OAI questions • DLESE-IMS • Dublin Core • Crosswalks and XSLT • Controlled vocabularies • NSDL questions DLESE OAI April 29-30, 2002
