For objects that don't have a title on the piece, provide a concise title that will assist end users in deciding whether to investigate a resource further.

The subtitle may be included as part of the title or in an optional subtitle field to store and display the information as a separate element.

Mappings
Dublin Core
Depending on the direction of mapping necessary, check
- DC to MODS: https://www.loc.gov/standards/mods/dcsimple-mods.html
- MODS to DC: http://www.loc.gov/standards/mods/mods-dcsimple.html
The following specific guidelines apply for the DAMS:
Dublin Core field | Mapping condition | MODS element | Notes |
---|---|---|---|
dc:title | titleInfo/title | ||
dc:title* | titleInfo/subTitle | The subTitle value is inserted immediately after title value, preceded by colon, space. Example: <dc:title>Land surveying and agriculture equipment: a history</dc:title> |
MARC 21
see http://www.loc.gov/standards/mods/mods-mapping.html#title. The following specific guidelines apply for the DAMS:
MARC 21 field | Mapping condition | MODS element | Notes |
---|---|---|---|
MODS element has no type attribute | titleInfo/title | Approximate mapping. MARC 21 field 245 contains the title statement, which may include subtitles, alternative and parallel titles. The title proper is in subfield a, other parts of the title including the subtitle and alternative/parallel titles are in subfield b. | |
titleInfo[@type="translated"]/title | Approximate mapping. | ||
246 | MARC indicator 2 has value 1 | titleInfo[@type="translated"]/title | Approximate mapping. Second indicator of MARC 21 field 246 has value 1 for Parallel Titles, i. e. titles in other languages. |
MARC indicator 2 has no value | titleInfo[@type="alternative"]/title | Approximate mapping. Second indicator has no value for Alternative Titles. See also title statement in MARC 21 field 245. | |
740 | MARC indicator 2 has value other than 2 | titleInfo[@type="alternative"]/title | Approximate mapping. |
titleInfo[@type="uniform"]/title | Approximate mapping. | ||
240 | titleInfo[@type="uniform"]/title | Approximate mapping. | |
MARC indicator 2 has value other than 2 | titleInfo[@type="uniform"]/title | Approximate mapping. | |
245$b | MODS element has no type attribute | titleInfo/subTitle | Approximate mapping. MARC 21 field 245 contains the title statement, which may include subtitles, alternative and parallel titles. Subfield b may contain parallel titles. |
242$b | titleInfo[@type="translated"]/subTitle | Approximate mapping. | |
246$b | MARC indicator 2 has value 1 | titleInfo[@type="translated"]/subTitle | Approximate mapping. |
246$b | MARC indicator 2 has no value | titleInfo[@type="alternative"]/subTitle | Approximate mapping. |
247 | N/A | MARC 21 field 247 contains former title(s) for serials. Currently there is no mapping target available for former titles in the DAMS MODS schema. |
Solr
In general, all MODS metadata is imported into the DAMS Solr server upon ingest. The ingest process generates Solr fields typically named according to the following schema:
mods_value*_suffix
where
- value* can be one or multiple element, subelement or attribute names that allow to distinguish Solr fields
- suffix is s, t, ss, ms or mt, which refers to the type of data stored in a Solr field and how it is indexed. The Solr index usually contains multiple copies of each field with the same content, distinguished by their suffix.
The following table shows mappings between MODS elements and Solr fields for those fields that are currently used for display in the Collections portal, or where additional processing happens in Islandora or during the publishing process. Suffixes are ignored, unless relevant for the mapping.
