Hi, Terry,
I have a question about the OAI harvester function. I have been testing
MarcEdit as a way to pull OAI metadata for ETDs from our IR, which is
Digital Commons, and convert it to MARC records for our catalog.
In my testing, I’ve noticed that using Dublin Core as the metadata type (and
its corresponding crosswalk) gets me only some of the metadata that I want.
Specifically, I want to include the thesis advisor (or contributor) in my
MARC records. According to what I know (which isn’t a lot—I’m new at this),
the contributor name is part of qualified Dublin Core.
Assuming that what we get is governed by the crosswalk, is it possible to
create either:
a crosswalk that allows both unqualified and qualified Dublin Core to be
pulled from the IR and converted;
or, a function within the harvester that allows for retrieval of all Dublin
Core metadata associated with an item?
If this is possible, I would like to suggest that as an enhancement for
MarcEdit.
Thanks very much for considering this.
