Mapping of Dublin Core data to AtoM fields

[Karl Goetz]

Hi,

I’ve done up a table mapping AtoM UI elements to Dublin Core elements for our staff uploading data via Archivematica. I have since found the dc template page with similar content but isn’t quite as easy for our purpose, and doesn’t quite map to the flow as well. (These DC fields are also useful for mapping to things like Trove or other harvesting tools).

https://www.accesstomemory.org/en/docs/2.4/user-manual/data-templates/dc-template/

I was thinking about putting on the wiki but wondered

* would this be a useful resource to others

* where would I put it?

Any suggestions would be great!

(I hope this paste works ok for people)

AtoM UI description (item display page)	Atom UI notes (item display page)	DC CORE term
Identity area
Reference code	In UI this is prefixed by the parent Archival Descriptions ‘title’. Eg. ‘AD example – 123445identify’. TODO: confirm	identifier
Title		title
Date(s)	AtoM supports a date range or a single date – if only the latter is used it is assumed to be a creation date.	date
Level of description	Should be from a controlled list, eg Item, File, Collection, Series, …	Type
Extent and medium		format
Context area
Name of creator	This also appears as a “Name Access Points” entry.	creator

Existence and location of originals		source

Hi Karl, 

A lot of the information you've captured here is already available as part of the data entry template page,, which I see from your post you already know about: 

• https://www.accesstomemory.org/docs/latest/user-manual/data-templates/dc-template/
  

However, it's not in a table format that makes it easy to scan. If you'd like to share your work, I can think of at least 2 places it could be added to the wiki: 

The first option would be to add it to this sorely neglected page on crosswalks. I copied this over from the old ICA-AtoM wiki when we migrated, and intended to review and update all the crosswalks, but haven't had the time! Consequently, there's not much in there now - but you'd be welcome to add something newer. See: 

• https://wiki.accesstomemory.org/Resources/Metadata_crosswalk
  

The other option that makes sense to me would be to add it to the Documentation section of the Community resources. You could add a section describing what it is on this page: 

• https://wiki.accesstomemory.org/Community/Community_resources/Documentation
  

And then you could either simply link to your post in the forum, or you could create a sub-page that has more details, including the full crosswalk table you've created. 

Cheers,

Hi Dan,

Thanks for the suggestions.

I will not add it anywhere at the moment but crosswalk seems the best fit for it should I be motivated to add it in future.
