Institutional Repository Metadata

3. Purpose Promotional Administrative Preservation Sharing
Need to look at the purpose of our repository and the metadata
Its to provide information about the image/work
Promotional – institution – researcher – info about the image/work, what it is, who, subject, links e.g. Researcher website
Admin – for institution, research offices, dates, subject, funder
Preservation – record of what happened. Produced at the time, in what formats – what the work is saying, how it was produced – more difficult
Sharing – promotional – but allowing all to access it, so metadata needs to be standardised so that it can be pulled out and aggregated

4. Born Digital Multimedia
Born digital works – digital photographs, take that in the format originally made, sometimes converted to web friendly format for display/access

5. Digital Representation
Digital representations – a lot of the work e.g. Painting – so distinction needs to be made between the representation and the original work

6. Still/Moving Image/Audio
Still/moving images – again can often only be a representation e.g. Video work – multiple screens, to be viewed in specific environments

7. Multiple Creators
Multiple creators – found this in a lot of art research e.g. Theatre productions – so need to have room for all these contributors

8. Metadata Modified Dublin Core Expanded fields Item level metadata
Copyright
User friendly

9. Modified Dublin Core
Medium not really expressed in dublin core – does not separate between the object and the digital representation, here the material/measurements of the piece of fabric itself – not the image

10. Expanded Fields
Expanded fields e.g other contributors – not co-creators e.g. Photographer, curator

11. Item Level Metadata
Item level metadata – describing the individual image – format, title, license, contributor e.g. Photographer of the image

12. Copyright
Copyright – huge area, again for the individual image, the specific license of the that image as opposed to the whole record

13. User Friendly (?)
User friendly – have we managed? With art/design items there are 7 areas!! However only 4 fields are mandatory – red star – also help info next to each field - researchers themselves will deposit and put in metadata – wnat to encourage this as much as possible

14. Depositor Trained staff – IR manager/assistant Researcher
Enhancing the metadata
Who deposits

15. How the repo looks like at present – UAL only, though UCA operates in an identical way
Id’s are pretty standard e.g Last Name, First Name, Year, Title, Publisher etc
