MODS Element name: <relatedItem type="source" displayLabel="Source collection" usage="primary">

Short definition: Physical or digital collection the asset originated from. Distinct from Digital Collection.

Input guidelines: Input name and identifiers of a physical or digital collection from which the asset originated. If you enter information about a primary digital collection as Source Collection, do not duplicate this information in the Digital Collection fields/elements.

Recommended for digitized assets, especially those intended for public access. Collection names and identifiers should be as standardized as possible. Follow your unit/collection guidelines per Supervisor/Collection Owner. Enter URI, PID, and local identifiers when available.

Note

The title value entered for Source Collection is used to generate a search facet in the Collections portal.

Use consistent spelling for the Source Collection Title, as spelling variants or typos will result in separate facets being generated.

Source Collection information is not required, but it is highly recommended to enter at least the title of a Source Collection. Consider supplying a collection name to facilitate browsing if now established collection name exists. Information in this field/element is currently the only structured information allowing to browse assets by their collection context in the Collections portal.
