DAMS input form fields
Rights
DAMS form field name | form field type | required | MODS element | Collections Portal display | notes |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Rights - Use and Reproduction | dropdown selection
| yes | accessCondition[@type="use and reproduction"] | Rights - Use and Reproduction | |
Rights - Restriction on Access | dropdown selection
Currently only the values "Public access" and "Metadata only" are correctly interpreted by the publishing process for publishing assets to the Collections portal. For assets where only metadata is published to the Collections Portal, it is advised to add a general note informing users why the asset is not accessible online. Template text for a note is available here: Metadata text templates | yes | accessCondition[@type="restriction on access"] | N/A |

Guidelines for use

In order to include both types of information (copyright statement and access restriction), the <accessCondition> is repeated, with different type attributes respectively.
Copyright statement: <accessCondition type="use and reproduction">
Access restriction: <accessCondition type="restriction on access">

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
MARC 21
See http://www.loc.gov/standards/mods/mods-mapping.html#accesscondition. If no notes on access restriction or reproduction rights are present in the MARC record, you need to make a determination about the copyright status while creating MODS metadata.
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.
MODS element | Mapping condition | Solr DAMS | Solr Collections Portal | Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|
accessCondition[@type="use and reproduction"] | mods_accessCondition_use_and_reproduction | mods_accessCondition_use_and_reproduction | The Collections portal creates a "Public Domain" facet based on assets which contain the "Public Domain mark" rights statement value. | |
accessCondition[@type="access restriction"] | mods_accessCondition_restriction_on_access | mods_accessCondition_restriction_on_access | Currently, the value for access restriction is not displayed in the Collections portal. Assets with value "metadata only" will show a placeholder image in the Collections portal viewer. |
